In that case I would sand even more. And after that thoroughly clean it with a duster and vacuum cleaner, we don't want sanddust in our paintjob.
Make sure you use a good undercoat before you actually paint the thing. And always sand between stages. If you are using a paintbrush make sure you cover evenly. You might even want to consider thinning the paint down, just to make sure the paint is applied even.
When you want to do tribal logos consider the following. Are you good at freehand painting (painting something with just a small brush)? Otherwise print the logo's and put them on cardboard, remove the parts that you actually want painted carefully, I would recommend using an xacto knife for that (But watch out, cause I can shave with those blades) and use them as a mould, then just use some spray paint to spray over the mould and onto the guitar and your logo's will come out nicely.
Hope this helps,

I sanded it quite a bit yesterday and now im putting wood filler in the really big dent and snding that down as well.
