Members trastu Posted August 20, 2008 Members Report Posted August 20, 2008 impressive work. I like the design drawings and colour. Quote
TomSwede Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 Way cool Beeze!! But hey wait a minute and pull the break... Have I not commented on this motif on a bikeseat before?? Only that it was sealed and antiqued on naked leather, prolly with rest of seat black or sumting??? This one IS way cooler with that great fire dyejob. I'd guess that it is airbrushed but not sure? I just admire the way you model your work with that pearshader. Tom Quote
Timd Posted August 21, 2008 Report Posted August 21, 2008 Roger, yet another holy $%*t seat! They keep gettin' better 'n better! Quote

Members pavilionpony Posted August 29, 2008 Members Report Posted August 29, 2008 OMG!! That is very, very cool!!! Great job!Quick question, what did you use to color it with? Will it withstand wear and weather I presume? Quote
Members ElVaqueroMuerto Posted August 30, 2008 Members Report Posted August 30, 2008 Very nicely done. Incredibly fluid design and great color scheme. Love it! May I humbly suggest, however, going in with an Gel Antique Med Brown and painting the "cliffs" in your design? (I do not know the official name for it, but what I call "cliffs" are as follows: when you cut your line, then compress one side, if you follow the compressed side down to the line, then you hit a cliff face, which goes up, then levels off into the untooled side. So the "cliff is the edge of the cut line that shows after you have tooled one side down) It has been my experience that Gel Antique Med Brown plays very well with oranges and yellows and it would add more distinction to your cut and tooled lines, giving them more contrast. Very nice work again. I look foreword to seeing more of your work. VM Quote
