That's pretty cool. I really like the texture of the blue. How did you get that texture?

That's pretty cool. I really like the texture of the blue. How did you get that texture? The base coat was a lighter blue. The I went over it with a watered down darker metallic blue to get the shiny effect. It's a bit darker than the real color he wears, but I think it came out pretty good. I plan to spray it with a clear matte coat afte the decals. Thanks for the comments. Here's the printout I'm hoping to do the trunks with using the waterslide decal paper if it goes well.  Just in case anybody wants it, here's the mask image I used.  And an attempt at the wrist band.  |

I just ordered a sheet of white off ebay. You can get clear too, but for this case I wanted the white for the edges and for the color in the decal.

Thanks guys, I gave it to him ovwer hte weekend along with the stage and he loved it.
As far as the paint, the blue base coat was some cheap brand i found in one of those sets that come with a variety of cololrs. The top coat and the gold were folkart I believe.
I wattered them down and painted the over the base baby blue color.
