So it will do a 10.4 quarter instead of a 10.6. I agree doesn't look the best with the bench, but the truck will beat any car in it's class.

Was painted on a cruiser

Speed Racer rules!

Neither...airbrushed

One of many. Remember that the majority of logo design is simple text

Visit Pedalhead in Calgary. I am just the artist.

I can see what you are saying for the first one in regards to kearning between the D and the A. I can see what you are saying about the "E's", but I wouldn't really want to exaggerate the steps more. Reason being is that if there was an "I" it would be in comparable width to the upright of the "L". I was hitting for an '80's disco feel' as well as a boxy simplicity, so wanted the steps to be subtle. I do see your point.

Thanks

Your right the piece was done by Joshua...same guy who does the stuff for Nike.

Yes a helmet

My own clubs...just thought it would be cool to have an old school set of "woods" that are in fact metal.

All part of the test, hence testing. Water based so it blends well with Auto Air, and can add to the designs without laying down an inter coat clear. Most clear coats provide UV protect...well the one I use do.

I have used pigment liners in the past, which are waterproof and lightfast, but the only thing I don't like is the purplish tinge under clear.

Drew is an awsome guy. He is a mixed media kinda guy as well. Started airbrushing boards. I had the pleasure of meeting him through Tiki Farm, as he did some designs for them. I have been fortunate enough to have a good supplier from Japan for the pens.

Pens I've been using them as part of stuff that I have airbrushed, to give that comic style appearance. I definately to paint more realistic works, but I always want the best tools for my works. I always test durability personally before using anything in a clients project.

Paint based

A type of pen from Japan, http://www.mpuni.co.jp/product/category/sign_pen/do_posca/spec.html

I do paint helmets for others, as well as motorcycles and cars. Check out http://www.painincdesigns.com also check out http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/2536064/ it's an interesting link right hand side of pic was part of my online vector porto.

Mixture of airbrush, inks, posca, and an actual brush

That is a pic of it.

I have one for sale for $249

I'll tell Mike Giant next time I see him...

Art artard

Unfortunately it is staying white

I had another colour in mind, but the client requested white...

The majority of stuff that I paint is not skulls. In fact I have only painted two skull helmets in the past few years. My own personal and one that wasn't mine.

I have no idea about the symbolism, was just what the client requested, a japanese style image with demon and angel wings.

Maybe a bigger monitor, but all my work is on the direct to monitor screen below...was the 1st one in Canada to get!
