Decided to try painting a reel again. This was a gold quantum accurist before I started. Sorry for the horrible pic's. Sun's gone and had to take them on the desk with a light bulb. Tried to stick with something simple. After tearing the whole reel apart (I mean every spring,screw, c-clip, etc) I thought I was going to have to ship part's to a reel repair shop for some serious help! I got it back together ok (with no spare parts,lol) and it look's really awesome! Here's some pictures....

Paint one of mine!

Looks pretty cool, man. Also looks like a lot of work

That has to be one of the coolest paint jobs I've seen on a reel.  Good job!

That is awesome, I absolutly love it.

That's quite a complement coming from you  ;D

Looks great btw. Wish I had the patience and equipment to do something like that

not a huge fan of the color (just not my taste) but that pattern is awesome. Very nice paint job.

Super nice paint job !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is amazing! I was wondering if you can fill us in on the paints (ie, brand) used. I want to repaint my pflueger trion in a green lantern scheme, but I want use the same paint and clear finish you used.

An airbrush, I take it, too? thanks!

Great Job and the reel looks really good and wish I had the patience and talent to do a couple of my reels myself.

well done, sir.

Hey, I'd tap that.

That is just pure sick!

Id love to see it in light shades of brown/green so it would really look like a snake.

lol.. Just createx airbrush paint's I mixed up. I was actually going for a shimano pearl green but settled on the blue. Came out pretty cool I've done one other back when I first stared painting. I painted a bluegill on it and didn't really like it so figured I'll settle on something a little less difficult this time.

Thanks. The junk airbrush that I have is capable of doing non-detailed oriented painting. I am going to pick up some some green and black for the Green Lantern Theme.

Oh yeah. What type of top coat did you use to protect the paint job?

IM sent!

sick!!
