1st Trailer Pinting 5 other small first

[djaustin]

Hello all,
I am a Hot Air Balloon Pilot and wanted to get my balloon painted on the trailer.
I bought a Pasche VL after trying to break in with a $9 special. I always remembered the saying that you should not try and use a special as you will just get frustrated; well it is ok as long as you know this going in.
I painted some smaller paintings with it and then some balloon paintings with the better brush trying out the use of fisk and a hand held template / guard.
Then I made my first attempt on the trailer with a saying in the shape of a balloon about 24x14. Then I jumped into the big painting on the side 50x30 in size. This took about 40 hrs. in after work hours.
So now looking for criticism, praise or suggestions.
