monkeyseemonkeydo Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Sorry if you can't see it . Need to get a new set of Inspired stickers off Dave and some Tarty ones from Ads and she'll be done . Probably not to everyone's tastes but quite fun to do!Now the question is do I spray the forks as well? There are always going to be white highlights on it (white stickers, pedals, saddle graphics etc) so I think I'll leave them for now but what do we think?

crispyboy Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Really nice !!The blue Phat pad backing dont go but nothing you can do about that Good job!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted September 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 The blue Phat pad backing dont go but nothing you can do about that I knew someone would notice... they suited the baby blue perfectly... The camo not so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Metcalfe Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 I like,but I Think black forks and stem would suit it better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncy H Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 That looks great I think, well done for giving it a go and for the end result. I think yu should keep the forks as they are, they would probably look better in black along with the stem but not camo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 (edited) I can't call you Danny anymore Looks smart Dave, shame on you for not keeping it in one piece when spraying it though haha! Do the forks and stem as well, or do 'em satin black or something. Like it Edited September 19, 2009 by Skoze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Gibbs Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 How did you manage the paint job dude? that looks soooooo cool. I have been trying to figure out how to lay up a camo paint job at work for a special order on some combat helmets. and now i cant do that on my bike! but it looks good man really like it do the forks the same and add some chrome and polished parts to break it up.

I then got the leaf from a fern and used it as a mask and randomly sprayed with the different colours to break up the solid colour regions... Quite fun to do actually!I did practice on my Beta first but this is the result of first my first attempt:All good! The plastics on the Beta came out a bit too stripey so the forks were done after and came out more random which is what I did on the Inspired .
