ocular inspection with Ate Shaoi, John and Sir Rafols.
empty spaces.
construction workers were working in the background while we were painting,
so this space right here was most of the time - noisy and dusty.
this is the main deal - the logo of cafe racer.
[selftalk: "better not screw this up zing"]
employed a tedious grid system to nail things in place.
in this photo we have kier and jo.
base color first.
first time using a projector. we had to. surface was difficult for markings.
after this side was painted with a white base,
i asked onna to do this whole area right here!
making progress day and night, night and day.
this will be the last area that we'll be tackling and the photo on the right is the reference.
I don't do paintings of this style, so this was the second-most-daunting piece for me.

starting with the other sides
can't remember if it was hot or what. but my dear friend rojan is half-naked.
meanwhile, lantaw is taking shape, thanks to Ate Shaoi and her help meet.
it was hot outside. thank you to these nice people
who provided me some shade and upgraded my mini scaffolding.
not using ordinary latex paints here as per Ate Shaoi's advice, coz it might fade.
recoloring with Ina's help, red was too bright. going for something darker.
and Onna is done with her side.
touch ups with ritchlei and onna.
done.
