I agree the "sperminator" was probably the worst paint job I've seen. So I give my boat 2nd place.
But check it out now. What do yall think? I love it!

Got to find a name though.
Flying Tomato

Note: The Miami Vice look was original paint.

The pastel colors are giving me a sort of Miami Vice vibe.

I'm still trying to figure out the thought process behind the old paint.


Paint guy:
"OK, picture this: We'll put a warlock with a staff at the back, then just in front of him, we'll let 3 kids unload full magazines from their paint ball guns. Then, from mid-ship forward, we'll do a WW1 battleship camo look but in color. What do you think?"

Owner:
"What do I think? I think it's BRILLIANT! When can we start?"

Yeah, yeah. . . . . . . .and we can name the warlock dude "Zelatore"

Very funny though!

Hey now, that's Italian! It's pronouced with an A at the end....say it with a cheesy Italian accent - "Hey! Zelatore! You wanta some pasta today?"

As for graphics, I tend toward the 'less is more' school. You're moving in the right direction!

(I did get a chuckle out of calling the warlock Zelatore though :kingme:)

:) Did Zelatore maybe just double-down on a goof? (AKA: I think the warlock dude stuff is the NEW wrap, not the old paint.) :)

Or is this his little 4/1 gag? I think we need to ask Andy Kaufman...

On a different note, that is one cool looking boat. Python is completely foreign to me. Did they by some chance buy out the old Martini (Corsa?) and keep cranking them out?

If he's smart he'll blame it on 4-1 ;).

Looking at the pics I agree that I think the Warlock stuff is the new wrap but I had to check picture numbers to see what was the before and what was the after. :bonk:

No offense intended. My bad!

FWIW, I'm more of a plain solid color guy. I know jack-all about what's hot in current graphics.

and now Zelatore slinks silently out of the room....:doh:

I paid 3500. Company is in Austin, TX, named Wakegraphics. They do all the Tige wakeboard boats. I pulled the boat to Austin and they installed the wrap in one day! Made it back to Houston before dark.

About the boat. From what I have researched: The Python is a splashed hull of a Martini or Pantera.
