Default Car wont start, blowing starter fuse??

Car starter fuse blew a few weeks ago, I changed it, and had no problems, until I picked it up from the cage being painted. It fired up, searched for idle, and stalled, for up a second time, same thing, only this time it would not fire up again after it stalled.

The starter fuse was blown, and after changing it 2 times, it kept blowing, but would not fire up, nor would it even turn over.

I'll check the other fuses tomorrow. Until then, any ideas? I'll check all starter wires.
