Flat deck paint ideas

Nice job on your project! Here is a picture of my 84 Flatdeck, "Old School Muscle". Sorry,
not the best pic, taken with my phone.

I used the #17 race number as a tribute to AJAC Hawk, the first 38 Cig, and just re-did the ghost on the hull-sides with silver candy for a more prominent effect. Also matched the Playboy font for that classic/elegant appeal.

Good luck,

Jack

Update

I'm still working on it. Thanks Dave for the paint ideas. Graphics on the sides are done with a clear over them, needs to be sanded then everything cleared.

Awesome. Classic cool with a twist. It will be badass, even badder once the Arnesons get bolted back on. :sifone:
 
The stock Cigarette stainless rail. By the way anybody have a good source for rub rail.

The paint looks great!!
I love seeing an old classic brought back with only a touch of modern.
Keep it subtle on the update.
These old girls deserve to shine for there original beauty, not looking like they've been "Botoxed" - you did a very nice job.

As for rubrail - Tacomarine.com
Try this link, it's the stuff I need to order for my Pantera, but quite likely the same rail you need.
Look forward to seeing her finished.

I followed the posts while you re-did your flat deck, the boat looks great.


Thanks for the rub rail connection.


Again thanks for the comments. We are currently working on the deck.

Basically a whole bunch of masks were placed on the boat over the blue base. The ovals were shot with a color (after much experimenting) that would pop when sunlight hit it but basically not be there under normal lighting. A mix of the Harley black pearl and the blue metallic worked well.

Yes the Arnesons will hopefully be back on soon.

Thanks for the replies. I do like the hockey stick graphics, but more modern.

We joked about leaving it with the Navy grey look.

Dave it was nice seeing you again in Key West, I would be interested in seeing any of your renderings.

Thanks Kris Vogt

Thats ASG's 39. If beautiful in person and you can see a ghost Cigarette in the paint. If you really want to be a player do the engine room the same. It mirrors the outside of the boat....:sifone:
