All I will say is.
Go for it! Techniques are only bound by the imagination so don’t limit your self to how you think it’s “supposed to be done” . Kaos will set you free!
HOLY TITS!
OK, now that you posted that, I get it.
ha!
that’s f-ing rad!
This is one of my “Faux” tint jobs. It’s really paint to look like a tint lamination. I’ve been doin these for years for a bunch of my airbrush customers. This board was meant to look a tint over my artwork and stripes.I use a transparent paint and can do them in any color. Been told you can’t tell the difference between this and a real tint. I even paint over the stringer too.Sometimes I put resin pinlines to give it the full effect. My cut laps are the cleanest in town. HaHa. Seaworthy Surfshop in Carlsbad has several on their racks.

the things in this thread have been inspiring me for a while now…after a while I just had to put resin to cloth and have at it.
here are my first two (humble) goes at it…
11ft x 30" EPS/Epoxy SUP
Blue and black pigment added to a green tint thinned with xylene…two seperate buckets and a little help from a friend
and the deck got a yellow tint…
and heres another…not quite what i wanted but i went with it…
A couple new ones… sorry for the double post, multi-threaders… the triplane I had to put up in the fabric inlays as well! The rocketfishish board was to a friend’s specs more or less:

hi kyle !
do you have a closer shot of the quads FRONT fins , please ?
cheers

Hey Ben;
Don’t really have a specific shot of the fins in this one, I presume you were interested in the shape/design of that fin? It’s the QuadESC by Hanalei fins or Probox… shown at this link on the hanalei fins site: http://www.hanaleifinsystems.com.au/pages/fins/quad_fins.html . Or at the proboxhawaii site… If you mouse over the ESC drawn image it will show a photo… even the same colour as the ones I used!
Here is the best shot I have, not so great but better than nothing as they say… Cheers and keep the fin stoke going, I know you love making fins I have to say I made a fin panel intending to make several sets and after foiling a couple I give great thumbs ups to you guys who are persistent and stoked enough to keep cranking them out! What a fiberglass-dusty nightmare my own process was… Maybe when I have a better setup I will be more inclined to make more. Here’s to the Future!
Whoops double post for some reason… sorry!
THANKS very much , Kyle !
your neck of the woods looks nice from photos I've seen ...lucky man !
cheers
ben
I'd love to see shots of your panels and fins , too [if you'd like to email em , if you don't want to post them here , perhaps ?]
No worries Ben, see my PM!
It’s pretty nice around here, colder than I’d like in the water though! The break behind that quad wasn’t doing much that day but it gets really fun when the bars get good, at the right tide… and the right size… and direction… Scored last sunday! Everything from little barrels to peeling overhead faces to little logging waves, a million variables at that spot.
