Help design custom paint job of motorcycle (Anywhere)
I'll pay you something for a job well done if it's good.. but this isn't really a pay job, more if you might find it fun to design a motorcycle and then see your design actually done..
I've been disassembling my Yamaha R6 and have been getting tutored by a guy on how to do all the body work and painting. I've been working on it for several weeks and am fully expecting it'll come out looking like a showroom bike when I'm done with it.
I've already got the color scheme and an inspiration for what I'm going for but I've gotten to the point where I need to come to a firm design because we're just about done with body work and priming and will be ready to paint soon.
This hot rod (first picture) is my original inspiration.. all the other images are just models for using in Photoshop. The last picture is of my actual bike before we started on this project.
Satin black on matte black with cherry red accents. I've already sent the rims off to get powder coated cherry red. And the whole bike including the frame are primer grey ready to go.. I've got urethane paint from Eastwood.com ("Rat Rod" flat black and "Vino Rojo" candy red http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003K56ZGA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
I haven't even gotten the second shade of black yet because I'm waiting until we paint the matte black base coat to get an exact idea of how thats going to look before I decide exactly which shade of black to get for the accent.
I'm fiddling around on the computer trying to color the bike in Photoshop to get a good idea .. don't really expect I'll get any replies to this but maybe hoping I'll run across somebody that's into it and wants to help out for the fun of the project.
Whatever the outcome.. the goal is to make it awesome and make it.
