Just had to show off

This is my first thread here, and I wanted to use it to show off my new toy.
I have a couple 5 gallon kegs, and a buddy of mine stole one from me for a while. When he brought it back, it looked like this;








So now when you open the fridge to get a beer (ya, you gotta open the fridge in my house) you see this beautifully painted keg



So what do you all think???




EDIT - #2 is done now

Pretty cool looking keg there. Was it full when he stole it? Hehe. . . .

Takes a real buddy to do something like that. That's fantastic!

That's freakin awesome! Air brush???

Very Nice!
I've probably got a keg around he could steal for a while.

rockin job. is it clear coated to prevent scratches??

My buddy is an automotive painter, so he used really good paint and a ton of clear coat. It should hold up as well as a car in the snow, so fridging it (hopefully) wont be a problem.

And no, it wasn't full when he stole it, but it is now.

DAMN! that is really cool!

That's pretty cool

As I was scrolling down ( I was scrolling slowly), I couldn't help but think it was a bong...

HAHA
I do live in California

I like the flames, but the skulls...reminds me of a big can of poison.

I have 6 cornies and he can have 2 of them if he paints the other 4 for me!!!!!!!!!!!

That's awesome. Thanks though you just gave me another project.

I was actually thinking about painting the other one with the skull and crossbones, and alabeling it 'poison'

Would that be wrong?

Wierd part is - He does not drink.

But I do work on his R/C cars for him.
I fix them and he paints them. You should see this guys R/C collection, Beautiful car shells with great graphics.

Sweet work!!!

That's sick, your buddy has skills. You could make a business out of this.

Those are awesome. I was just thinking about painting mine the other day. But I wasn't considering anything nearly that cool!

Nice . Looks kick ass

I know I'm late to this party, but those are great.

Thank you all for the kind comments.
My buddy actually paints cars for a living. When I suggested painting kegs and selling them on Ebay (thanx for the idea Sedge), he started to do a little research to see if it would be a financially sound idea.
If he does start doing this on the side, I will be sure to let everyone know.
