Far too much time on my hands...

Here is an example of what graduate students do when they don't want to study.
Actually I hate my new hood (it gives me perma-chubby-cheeks) and it's boring black neoprene, and labelling my stuff is a boring chore.
I am a "Sunday painter" so I took my acrylics to it and here is the result. I may or may not shade the letters some more.

LOL, cute!

I like what you did.
I've been thinking of putting some designs on or painting my boring black wetsuit :az:

 

[johnnyseko]

Awesome! well now I won't have any trouble spotting you in limited vis.....

I hear sharks are attracted to that color....better stay in the cage

 

[Gidds]

There is no research to date indicating sharks or fish of any kind are attracted to that shade of green, which is WHY I chose it. Would you like me to paint "FOOD!" on your hood in neon yellow perhaps? The sennet might come REALLY close then. Then I wouldn't lose you in low vis. either

I think "CHUM" would be sufficient for my hood, thanks............ :11:

"CHUM" in neon pink...got it. Anybody else need thier hood painted?

Oh, I think I'll paint big eyes on the back of my hood that way Mr. Shark won't think he's sneaking up on me while SOMEBODY is being a weeney inside the cage

......be nice.... :14:

I want eyes and teeth painted on mine!!! That would be cool, a shark head hood! I think you may have a nice business here....put 'em on ebay.....although then I may become a nice target for the spearfishermen! :11:

OK, bad idea....."chum" it is.....in blood red.....

 

[Gidds]

But PINK will be easier to see underwater because red has a really short wavelength (I thinkI got that right :06: ) :05:
I can try doing a shark face on a hood. It's not like SOMEBODY ever wears thier hood anyway. Requests? I'll do custom hoods, no need for silly ebay. Before anybody mails me thier hood and a check I'd better make sure the paint on mine holds up
