screwed up a good paintjob that i was really liking....

lessons learned:

prime (i even had the primer, too lazy to put it on such a small bait)

wait longer before taping

live and learn (oh well, i get to sand this off and re-do it; more practice )

[Siebert Outdoors]

that sucks man.  Nice paint too.

[.dsaavedra.]

but its no biggie. just more practice, and lessons learned!

i'm currently repainting it. waiting on the metallic silver to dry as i type this.

Are you using water based paints?

If so, just heat set and forget about waiting for it to dry. Many thing coats are better than thick ones.

I like it.

yep, using waterbased acrylic Wildlife Colors. i did heat set my repaint of this.

so do you heat set in between coats or just after the entire thing is painted?

[ToledoEF]

I heat set every coat of createx I put on, I have had no problems yet!

[BigMoneyGrip]

Paint the spot red so it looks like a real wound!

[.dsaavedra.]

fixed

[ToledoEF]

Looks really good Dave!

[Infidel.]

Now I want to see some teeth marks on it!

[fourbizz]

I heatset every coat except for the finest of dustings.
