Decided to give it a go! Found a motorcycle helmet in the street(literally!), painted it satin black and used some black enamel paint I got in a store here to do some striping. I used some basic guidelines because of the surface of this thing...hard to handle while painting. After this dries..which takes forever, I will do some more with red!! When I'm done, I'll give the helmet away to some kid. Pinstriped by a gaijin (foriegner)!! I celebrated with some Japanese Doritos, cans of tuna and a few beers!! The paint I'm using is crap but the Mack 10 brush seems to make it work 'ok'. I know some One Shot would do wonders! Thanks Vance for the free can but I won't be able to try it out until March or so!! BTW, you can see the 'practice' I did before striping...the single line on the DelMonte bottle...yeah, that's my practice!! Dave
