"pimp my bike" Painting a Motorcycle
- "pimp my ride..." my 1st painting on a motorcycle
- there's a dude called JP who pimped this great looking kawasaki. somehow he didn't like the eggshell yellow on the tank. so he came to me and asked me if i could paint something on it. something with a japanese touch..i mixed up some gray tones in my markers and started painting...i hope to get some nice photographs of the whole bike soon. it look great assebled! this is one of the 1st projects i done that i'm happy with the result. hope to have more of them soon..you find some more informations about the used material at the end of the page..
- i used some fine sandpaper to roughening the surface of the part i wanted to paint.
- i covered the rest of the tank with old newspapers and masking tape.
- i sprayed the base color with a white montana gold spraycan.
- i sketched my idea with a common pencil
- i colored the tank using molotow all4one markers
- sometimes i used a thin brush to to some details, always using the molotow colors
- did the details with a thin black marker (molotow and uni posca)
- gave the whole thing to a local paintshop (those who varnish cars) to cover it
done... =)thank you for looking at this project..
