classic would be great..... why dont you get a hold of a painter that can show you what it would look like, do something close to what you have in your fav colors... contact grafikworx here on the board, he does all of phil lip ships boats... im sure hell have some ideas for ya.... his name is harold...

I'm a big fan of dark full sides....I.E. the pics bellow. Dark blue, black, or silver all look good. Easy to paint (ie cheap), Simple, subtly ellegant and timeless.

I would stay classic. White sides with the hockey stick stripes in your favorite colors.

Thanks for the replies. I do like the hockey stick graphics, but more modern.

We joked about leaving it with the Navy grey look.

Dave it was nice seeing you again in Key West, I would be interested in seeing any of your renderings.

I have to agree with Tank.

Here's our example of classic, simple paint scheme.

Hey, Kris. It was great meeting you in KW and talking boats.

On yours, you could do a blend between classic and modern. Viperfitness did a very faint indian-head shadow under his paint that looks good. You could do all-black (or maybe navy blue) and have the CIGARETTE logo ghosted under it in greys and pearls.

That's a very cool boat. It looks like a giant Donzi classic.

It was nice meeting you as well. I just don't remember Friday night so well and for some reason I didn't feel so good Saturday morning.

My boat is a very light lay-up and the hull sides are not that straight, so I am afraid to put a dark color on the sides. I looked at "Old School Muscle" in Key West and that boat is much staighter than mine.

Not sure if that's a compliment or a insult!!! LOL :sifone:

Definitely a compliment. The Cig 36 also looked like a Donzi, but the lines weren't as clean as the smaller one.

Yeah, we were both a little wobbly...

Here are some ideas. The second one would hide a multitude of sins.

Just ship it to Glassdave.

If you are referring to Holy Smokes' boat I think it is a rare cig 33. As for color on mine I am partial to blue but the boss would like to see some yellow.

Looks like you are making some progress.

Yeah- the 33. I have a 24 and it's literally a mini-me version of the boat.

Dave's second rendering has plenty of yellow for you. ;)

The Cig ovals are all along the blue stripe. The picture was taken with a halogen light to show how it will look in the sun.

Nice job on your project! Here is a picture of my 84 Flatdeck, "Old School Muscle". Sorry,
not the best pic, taken with my phone.

I used the #17 race number as a tribute to AJAC Hawk, the first 38 Cig, and just re-did the ghost on the hull-sides with silver candy for a more prominent effect. Also matched the Playboy font for that classic/elegant appeal.

Good luck,

Jack

The paint looks great!!
I love seeing an old classic brought back with only a touch of modern.
Keep it subtle on the update.
These old girls deserve to shine for there original beauty, not looking like they've been "Botoxed" - you did a very nice job.

As for rubrail - Tacomarine.com
Try this link, it's the stuff I need to order for my Pantera, but quite likely the same rail you need.
Look forward to seeing her finished.

Basically a whole bunch of masks were placed on the boat over the blue base. The ovals were shot with a color (after much experimenting) that would pop when sunlight hit it but basically not be there under normal lighting. A mix of the Harley black pearl and the blue metallic worked well.

Yes the Arnesons will hopefully be back on soon.

Thats ASG's 39. If beautiful in person and you can see a ghost Cigarette in the paint. If you really want to be a player do the engine room the same. It mirrors the outside of the boat....:sifone:
