Default Dig the new graphic ?

After toying with the idea of airbrushing the tank , I figured I should post my own mark on the bike, and being a bit of an artist with a design company, I have come up with my new graphics for the bike christened "Skeletor". See what you think. This is the right side...we are just going to get them made up as decals in vinyl and then clear coat over good old 9850. Would love to hear what you guys think, without debating over decal Vs Airbrush, otherwise known as oldschool vs newschool. Remember Im only a youngster and decided to go for a newschool approach. If anyone would like me to help out with some graphics, shoot me an email through www.alienpunk.com.au , my website for design stuff. I would love to do more of this after doing a billion album covers, T shirts, websites and posters for a few years now.

Will post pics once the graphics hit the bike.

And hey, dont use these graphics; I would be happy to do one for you and put YOUR twiston things. No charge, all I ask is a photo of the finished job for my collection and folio for the site.

I think it looks pretty bitchin', dude. I am a bit of an artist myself. I just finished a cool piece that I'm having tattooed on my forearm (better be good to be located there). It's a harley bar & shield with one wing going to the left and a skull looking to the right. I get it this coming saturday. Anyway, you going to do the same on the other side of the tank?

That's pretty cool... you do nice work.

The eye sockets appear...conspicously empty to me, though. Or maybe I listened to too much b-grade heavy metal in the 80s.

Even though it's reverse, are you familiar with what this is going to resemble from 10 feet away?

I have to dissagree. I don't think it looks like that at all.

Great looking graphic. That should be a one of a kind.
