A mate of mine was going to get birds feathers airbrushed onto his black 'bird but he was going to have the feathers done in a pruple irridesant so they shimmered while on the move, (His words not mine). Then he put his spliff down and bought a RS250 Aprilia!
It was awesome and we've got two more fans, it was their first GP and already they want to go to Valencia in November then Jerez next year.
Would be great if you can sort out the tix for next year :bow:
Haven't seen any done like this but I think the shape of the bird would lend itself well to some tribal designs ovelayed on a dark pearlescent paint to achieve the kind of job that looks different every time you look at it. If you don't contrast the colours too much you can also achieve more detail shown the closer you look. possibly even a hidden bird of prey.
Saw a really nice paint job on a car, although I don't know what it would look like on a bike, it was designed on the fur of a blue persian cat (honestly) although it looked more of a smokey/charcoal grey, as the light caught it it went lighter/darker, looking at it from the front it looked like the fur was silky smooth, from the back it looked as though it was raised, wierd but good,
