    So tell me what you think of this. I painted this with water base in a hurry. It's messed up but if you don't zoom in it gives you an idea what it looks like. Input? The fightercat head was masked off and the carbon show through.

      Love it, especially how the green tapers toward the front, really great conceptualization on your part!

          Sorry i got ahead of you, l like it because it presents the front deck in a very lean and purposeful way, fitting for the speed you have.

            No worries! So youbthonkni should paint it this way? Everyone I've showed it to, liked it. So far. Lol. Some people, green may not be their thing and I get that. I'll probably never sell it anyway. So I may go ahead and do it.

              You know, it is as simple as arranging some lines and IMO you hit it right, it really lines out the deck and it looks fast, I like it. I must also admit that originally I wasn't used to the green, but after seeing it for awhile, I think it is a good combination with black especially CF.
              If you don't mind, I can't resist to steal some of this idea in the future. lol.....

                Yup, I like the bold green Travis. I love the colour yet never seem to think it appropriate anywhere. But you always seem to make it pop

                  Thanks fellas! Do know that it doesn't match perfectly because I have to lay a white base down first. I'll do a primer white. I just ordered a pint of paint so I can do it right. Not sure if I'm going to clear coat the whole boat or not. I have some templates that say fightercat for the sides but i think I'd rather it say Rivercat. Guess I need to hit Jeff up lol

                    A bright green and black always work. That looks awesome

                      That looks awsome Travis, now it ties the hatch in with the rest of the boat!!

                        Looks cool dude, I think any color and raw CF is a winner! As mentioned in earlier post, some stripes and logos would do nicely.

                          Thanks! That was the whole thought. The hatch looks good on its own but just didn't go with the boat

                            Liking it! Rivercat in green down the side is a good idea.

                              Hatch bolts came in. I talked to Monojeff about my templates today and he's taking care of that for me. Hopefully paint it next weekend. I'll probably maiden it this week if it ever stops raining.
