Members Poboy Posted May 22, 2011 Members Report Posted May 22, 2011 Finished tooling another seat top tonight. Tryin to decide on what to do, as far as, color goes... Quote
Members rblalock Posted May 23, 2011 Members Report Posted May 23, 2011 I'd probably do the skin in golden oak. The hair - 1st layer in pink then use red and yellow to give the hair a fiery look. Leaning towards black on the garments but don't want to hide the details in your artwork. Quote
Members Nooj Posted May 25, 2011 Members Report Posted May 25, 2011 I like that. Very cool. It it were me painting it (assuming I wouldn't screw it up... which I most likely would) I'd leave the skin area natural, red gloves, white shirt, and blue shorts, dirty blond/ streaky brunette look on the hair, and medium brown background (or whatever color would go with the bike). That's just me though... Nice job on the carving- I hope you update with some pics once you decide on your color scheme. Nooj Quote
Members bustedlifter Posted June 9, 2011 Members Report Posted June 9, 2011 (edited) Put a good amount of Snow Proof on it, throw it in the summer sun for a few hours and call it done. It'll look great! Edited June 9, 2011 by bustedlifter Quote
David Posted June 20, 2011 Report Posted June 20, 2011 Don't paint a bike seat, it will just rub off on someone's jeans! Dave Quote
