Wow...that is some fine job! I would like to know how many Uni Posca markers i will need to pain a 6'2" surfboard?  I mean how much surface can i cover with 1 marker?

All the best :)

@eightsmileys We emailed Spoto and will give you his answer as soon as we hear from him. Thanks!

@eightsmileys Here's Spoto's answer: "You can cover a lot with the medium chisel tip marker, probably the entire board. I would suggest starting with 3 colors at the most, preferably one color. That way you can purchase the different sizes. It is better to limit your palette of colors when you are beginning so you can focus on the drawing and new medium. I wish you the best of luck and happy painting as Bob Ross would have said!" - Sean Spoto

so clear coat when paints dryed???

[RonJonsSurf]

@mysteryguyzation That is correct. Apply clear coat after paint dries.

If I shipped my board to this guy to paint it if so how much would it be

[RonJonsSurf]

@freeballer123 We just got an answer from Spoto. "It would be a minimum of $100 and up. If it is something heavy around $350. This all does not include return shipping. Price varies a lot depending on the subject " Hope this answers your question.

hahaha the reason noones riding em is because theyll never put that 1st coat of wax on..its hard enough not just eyehumping a shiney new board. but one with a badass mural on it!? so sick

Great work and teaching!

Quick question, what are Clear Coating called in the stores?

(I live in Japan, so I can't be clear what's it called, also first time thinking of surfboard painting for a friend.)

@RonJonsSurf

It's a quite simple drawing that i am after! Something that reminds Lego! Cubes of colors!

I will order a few markers and start painting :)

Thanks for your advice!
