Bon Jovi amp art
 
Well, I got a little tired of the dull grey Bounce satellite array on my smaller 4x12 amp cab so I took some inspiration from the new Bon Jovi single and made it a little brighter:

Took a while but I'm quite pleased with how it turned out in the end. :D

By the way, if you're reading Richie and you want some amp cabs customising for the upcoming tour, give me a shout - my rates are very reasonable! :)

Wow, that's kickass.

That's amazing, really!!!
How did you make that??

Very nice!

Thanks guys. It was just 3 different colours of standard household emulsion. I planned out the design to scale using a copy of the single cover I found using google and just plastered the paint on. :)

It took about 15 hours in total and still needs a little touching up and second coat here and there but it's pretty much finished.

That really is brilliant.

Great work.

you know you can earn money in that business!? :p
i just know one site on the net for years that sell that. think about it :)

I would love to earn money at it and was actually sub-contracted by Jim Bon Jovi's brother for a short while as he runs a band merchandise website. However, there just wasn't the interest mainly because each one is hand-painted which obviously drives the costs up and puts people off. I do enjoy painting them though! :)

What site was it that you know of out of interest?

RockThunder 08-29-2009 12:26 AM

uh hard question. that was long ago but I try to find it again and tell you soon!

Cool, I'd be intrigued to see some other custom cabs as I haven't come across any myself. :)
