So I was bored this weekend so I bought a second guitar and decided to paint it up... since the stock body is OH, so lame. I bought this spray paint made for the terrible white lawn furniture, so I knew it would have to stick.
I sanded with 400grit first, then two coats of primer (at this point I masked out the skull). gave it a lot of time to dry, then I did two coats of the black, sanded with 800grit, then another two coats, and sanded, and then masked off the blood spatter area. then I cleared the whole thing with 2 coats. I painted the buttons all black as well, and masked them off so they wouldn't stick.
I used blue painters tape for all the masking and a razor to cut out the design. I drew the skull and blood spatter then traced it onto the tape.
note for DIYers: You have to completely take the guitar apart and it's a mess. to put it back together I used as many screws as I could to narrow down the pile so for the more delicate and important 'guts' I would have the right screws for.
Bad Ass I thought about doing that,but never got around to it, maybe with GH3 comes out I'll do it.
The stickers it comes with are lame, this is about the best thing I could think of. Not nearly as cool as yours, but a exploding teddy bear make feel more hardcore
