zander Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 So most of you don't have a chance to see my facebook page. I recently bought an older outboard whose cowling had been painted so many times it was really cracked up. I started to sand it off but realized that it was gonna be more time and work than I was willing to put in, and it would still probably look bad. I thought to paint a big brown trout on it, and this is the result, the other half hasn't been done yet and am looking to get input. If you can see my facebook page, please leave your comments there. Thanks. Phillip Taylor
Bman Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Cool engine cover. Couldn't find you on Facebook. Give us a link? The only good line is a tight line

zander Posted July 13, 2009 Author Posted July 13, 2009 30ish views and 1 vote? come on fellows it is just a click's worth of effort and if I did not want your input I wouldn't have put it here.
Terry Beeson Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 Why didn't you include Brookes and Cuts?

back2roots Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 I voted for a bow..... But how about doing streamer of some sort or a scud?? If you liked the sound....Thank the engineer!
TroutFearMe Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 Da** if I owned a boat I would pay you whatever to have that.
zander Posted July 15, 2009 Author Posted July 15, 2009 Hehehe, thanks for the compliment Well between the voting here, the voting on facebook and a someone with more than one vote (wife) it has left it pretty much even. Consequently I will do the other side as a brown trout as well. Thanks for all of the input and suggestions. I'll post more pictures of it when it is all done. Phillip Oh yeah, and Terry I didn't include brooks and cuts because with brooks to me the most beautiful part about them isn't the face it is the flanks. That by itself would be the coolest but I guess I thought of that too late. and with cut's the part of the face on the cowling wouldn't include their dominant feature of their throat.
Members curtis bias Posted July 17, 2009 Members Posted July 17, 2009 How's the progress Phillip? It looks great so far. You have a good eye for composition for sure. I like what I am seeing so far.
