    Default hubby's bike

    even though it's hubby's and I could take my time~ it's my first. 95* out, and a pounced out main design.

    Reflex blue, blue mixed with robin egg for a med, then a light grey, and white dots.




    together


    I was going to put a white wire, as Steve K. calls it, swirling down the middle. But since I have to let it set, hubby said he kinda likes it as is~
    I have to let it sit because I can't get a smooth line over the center lines there, the brush wants to wobble as it goes over them.
    Oh well, his ride he decides~
    wanted to share.
    thanks for looking

    edit~ I was reminded last night, Steve calls it a 'wrap around', so I'll call it a wire, cuz thats what it reminds me of~

    He daily drives this so hopefully it sitting in front of an auto parts store 8-6 m-sat will get some interest.

    Witchy,
    That is a beautiful job!!!!!!! Very tastfully done. There is so much
    more to Pinstriping than long straight lines and perfectly matched
    stuff. This type of work can grace cycles, cars, trucks, stuff in your house,
    you name it. I hope it brings alot of interest and work to you. I always
    like to see your latest work.

    Thanks John & Greger.

    I have 1 more design to add, on the sides of the tank. Will be in dark grey and go to a lighter shade. The bike is a Honda Shadow, no emblems left, so~ Looking at the scrolled phoenyxs I've come up with a simple design, and since we both like dragons, will (hopefully) resemble a dragon's head instead of a bird. Greys on black? Shadow~
    He has to do a bit of repair on a lower corner (darn water damage, fuel leak pops up when you least expect it, PO left it sit with no cap on, outside) so I'll do that after that's fixed.

    Yes John, I have thought about put scrolls on everything in my house lol!

    That's going to ROCK on the tank sides, sounds really cool. I'll have to watch for that when you post it to see what kind of magic you've worked with the dragon. : )

    hmm, I see new stuff in the avatar area~

    oh well, I got the dragon on, finally, had a bit of mental malfunction.
    I still need to put the red eye and some teeth on it, but weather went to rain before this grey dried enough. He's off tomorrow so will get those done. It's subtle just like I wanted though, visible in direct light but in the shade, gone.

    So here it is , in the garage but with bright reflection from my white bus. I got distracted when he put it outside and never got a pic. Will later for my album~



    Thanks for looking~

    signed, dated, done~
    he requested the red and this area~


    the wire added. And for a lil pop, I just went back out and added red to the white tips, not in pic.



    Glad I let it dry, took a few tries to get the teeth the way I wanted them, tiny.


    Over cast and he's hands are too greasy to push it back out, but you get the idea of the phantom effect I sorta got.

    So it's on to something else now.

    Thanks for looking~
