A Few New Pieces, Tanks Bibs, Etc.

[Spinner]

It's been a good while since I last posted work so I thought I'd throw up a few pics. Unfortunately, this is not the full list of projects from the last month as it seems only about 20% of folks send installed pics back for the website. Anyway, here are a couple of the ones that did...

Cheers,

Chris

2006 Honda VTX1300R whaletail tank bib with red buckstitch

2005 VTX1800R whaletail tank bib with black buckstitch

2002 VTX1800R whaletail tank bib with "Brass Ring" memorial & soaring eagle full color tooling

2005 VTX1800N plain whaletail tank bib (with dash area view)

2007 Honda Shadow Phantom Slimline tank bib with skull tooling

This last one was a tank bib I did previously, the USN Navy pin-up. unfortunately the bike is no longer with us, so the client has be deconstruct it and turn it into a vest backpatch and sew it on for him:

I also had my first request for a full blown Sheridan style carving on a tank bib (minus the flowers). Since I'm still learning the pattern side of it, King's X helped me out with the design and did a great job on the drawings. This was my first real attempt at a full Sheridan tooling project...need some more practice but it came out pretty nice and the client loves it. The black is nice because he wanted it understated from afar but detailed when up close.

The bike is a silver 2005 Honda VTX1800N, hence the name. Enjoy!

Last post, just a few more pics...

This one was a donation for a themed bike that was 'returned' to it's owner (had to sell it) at this year's East Coast Gathering at Bulldog's in VA. Can you guess the theme? (sorry for the darn fuzzy cell phone pic...it's all they had on hand right then)

2006 Shadow Aero 750 with the new "Hula Style" Flarecut tank bib. The client asked for "more curves" and him being from Hawaii the name seemed to fit...
