    • Polyurethane on the other hand works pretty well too, both give a pretty strong water resistant finish If you use pearl or candy finished spray paints, car clear coating gives a pretty nice touch to the metallic colors Just be careful to apply it with some primer cause the layers of paint and clear coat can begin to delaminate

  • Gorgeous and clean work. The only thing I would say is that for the next deck you should keep in mind where the trucks will attach to the deck. I mean the birds face would have the wheels screwed right on top of it. I have this issue with many art decks, and I get it’s more meant to be a canvas rather than a functional deck but it still bothers me because I’m weird that way. I think incorporating that kind of thing is cool with actual skateboards but would probably mess up the composition for just the naked board.

    • Thanks so much!! One thing though! That has come up here in the chat is that although a spray varnish is vital to “seal” the Posca pen details (as the resin will make it blur)……it’s best to leave as much time as possible after you use the spray varnish…..I would do some coats of spray varnish and then wait 4 days + before doing the resin. So there’s absolutely nothing “chemical-y” on the surface that will react with the resin. (Also Make sure to wipe away any dust and/or grease from finger prints before adding the resin too, so there’s no reaction to anything else on the surface) :) hope that helps! Good luck ^____^
