Default Digital camo hood project

Before.



During.










Done. About 4 coats of Dupont clear coat.






Far shot.




All in all, awesome project. Work was done in 2-3 hours including masking, stencils. Total about 6 hours with drying time included and about 40 bucks.

This is what its packing.

Nice idea, but I'm honestly not too crazy about the final pattern. Looks kind of incomplete to me. But hey, as long as you're happy with it, that's what counts. *thumbsup*



edit: I know it would have been more work, but I would have tried to make it look more like this. Still, good job.

I know but this pattern is much more "full" sort of speak and it would look too cluttered for my taste. My neighbor first time he saw it was like "ACU camo?" so he recognized it right away so it does the job.

It was the first time trying it so I am happy with the results.

Thank you for the comments.

Mustang looks fun as hell, but the digital camo came very bad, imo.

You should have just paid someone to wrap the hood. It would have come out perfect and when you got sick of it, you could just take it off.

This is my brother's car and we painted the hood because it had a small crack and nobody could match the blue pearl coat on top of the white base.

It was just for fun. About 3 hours of work and 40 bucks.

Sarcasm. You should try it sometime.

Next time you try to be cute on a forum, don't.
