hey i was thinking of getting some white gascans wioth ice lens and getting them airbrushd with like a wave on them thatd be sweet or the beach but hey is that even posible? i mena what should i tell the airbrusher guy? or would it be better to do it with like a special ink pen and have a tattoist do it?

most tatooists can airbrush too. My cousin does both and also can do pen, charcoal, pastels, and even sandblasting granite (like grave markers)...I think if you find a good one, let him/her know, and they can do it.

yea but what do you'll think airbrushing or should i go and buy like a permenant marker/ but in a pen form and have them try with that, but then the gascan have the biggest canvas to paint on u think its too small for airbrush?

no way, airbrush. Marker will rub off, and may react when you try to apply a clear coat to it. If all else fails, go to a nail salon and propose the idea to their airbrush artist..They can s certainly paint that small and have to airbrush for it...

thanks alot bro and im thinking a beach sene on the side of them but what about the front? and yea i was just thinking a couple waves and a plam tree and sand but idk yet

not sure on the front...not much to work with, but you could have them sprayed blue and get some cloud effects merged in or something...

yea thats what i was thinking cause thats look pretty sick with the ice lens i think. or like a orange for the sunset but itd have to be the right color and if i tried that im not sure howd it'd come out, but i like the original idea of the waves and daylight but what u think for th espray like a blue then a dark blue for the waves and then like a cream for sand and of course a brown and green tree and brown hut lol

Just don't allow it to end up looking like some rocker/stoner/freak van from the 70s with a large, tacky scene painted on it. Things that come to mind - Wizards, Wolves, Tigers and/or nature scenes, celestial scenes, sunrises and yes, beach scenes. Go for a pattern, or design. Something more detailed and intricate.

Definitely airbrush - I'm sure there are many airbrush artists in your area....check your Yellow Pages or go to any car/bike show to meet some.... Or even your local custom bike (motorcycle) shop.

They will know how to prime it and coat it correctly so that it looks good and lasts....

yea cause i was thinking of going for the sunset but idk i just want some sweet waves or something but now on my thump2 with fire lens i want a design but im looking at diff. colors and stuff

i wonder if i can get them off google like a tattoo but i really dont wanna copy the thump1 512 black tribal or anything bu then they do look sweet. im going sunday in the mourning to talk to the dude we'll see

I say this...have the artist start with a base color, lay a tribal mask pattern over a portion of the frame, shoot the scenery, and peel the mask...Then you get it all in one custom. A scenery shot that is broken up with a pattern that makes you read deeper into the artwork that is actually there...

A good artist can bounce ideas off of you as well - stuff you probably didn't think of and show you examples....

wow thanks medusa im gonna go with that and hope for the bestim so excited about it, just wish i had that kinda room on the thump 2 but the ear piece is in the way. but the gascan is a perfect idea i found another guy but i havent seen any of his work so we'll see. but i deffiantely want a scenery

I wonder what the durability is of airbrushing? can it scratch easily? airbrushing=not my forte :)

a few layers of clearcoating should do the trick

there is no problem with airbrushing. I have 4-5 pairs with airbrushing using them often....not a problem until now. But clearcoat is necessary.

Your the airbrush king Alex!

but what if you want a "matte" look and finish?

check my night camo valve they are matte. The Airbrusher just have to use matte clearcoat.
