More Godfather

Two more pics of the main body artwork - this time completed and cleared. Sorry for the fuzzy photos - the lighting was bad. I will post more (better) pics soon as there is a photo-shoot planned for this trike.

Imelda May - check it out!

Giger Helmet

This is a helmet currently in progress based on H. R. Giger's Landscape XVIII painting.

It's a Shoei Raid II helmet that started life wearing plain black.

I've posted some pics taken as the work progressed to give some idea of how the image is built up in layers of different colour.

Godfather Trike part II

This is the Godfather themed trike owned by a guy called Kirk who keeps himself busy by plating peoples stuff with chrome, copper, brass, etc etc.

I have already worked on the trike earlier in the year doing the rear fenders and front fender - check out pics here. This time around I'll be painting the main body and tank, which completes the job.

Here's a few shots of the main trike body during prep and the first images airbrushed on.

Jason's Flat Tracker update

Just found this pic of Jason's bike post-race at the Short Track UK Winter Warmer in Scunthorpe. Well they do say bikes should be built for riding and this is certainly no trailer queen! J, dude, you rock!

Jason's Flat Tracker

This is a C&J Rotax flat track race bike. Jason wanted to do the paint in an old-skool 1960s fashion. Scollops, striping, gold leaf and some hand lettering all go to make this a very cool tracker indeed! You can check out what SideBurn magazine had to say about it here, here and here. The pictures of the finished bike are courtesy of Jason (bike owner) and I will add some of my own as soon as I get chance to take some.

Martin's Honda VTX 1800

I'm going to back track a couple of weeks here and post some pic of a Honda VTX 1800 that I painted recently.

The design was based on a pattern on his favourite helmet. Most people would have a lid painted to match their bike, but Martin like to do things a little differently. Turned out really nice, I think.

Front fender

Petrol tank

Rear fender

I will get some pics of this bike as soon as Martin puts it all together!
