when painters get bored

Post by honkerman »

Did a bit of pinstriping on the scoot today. I did it with acrylic to see what it would look like so I will come off (like a temporary tatoo), but now I know I can do it permanently when I get some enamels. Was tires of sitting inside with an achey shoulder and figured some painting would do me good.

Freehand? Pretty darned awesome, if you ask me.
On my scoot, getting there is WAY more than half the fun!

Well thanks for that. It turned out better than I had hoped, which is why I started with the little bit around the bottom of the windscreen. My paints were a bit dried out and needed some attention, but in the end, I feel better about getting enamels and doing the rest of the scoot.

Very nice. I like the antlers as they are, but it might be fun to replace them with the head and horns of a raging bull.
