Little much but great artistry work. I really like the shadows on the flames. makes it look like they are hovering instead of painted on.
Nice work! |

I had to print a copy for future reference. Nice job and great layout, just too many flames.
I always try to think will you get tired of it in 6 months, if the answer is yes then I don't do it. Those would be killer on a bike.

I like them...just a thought though on the gas tank. With all that work in this truck, why not move the tank under the bed? Do some guys really want the tank in the cab? I can understand that if you are doing a concours d'Elegance restoration...but on a custom truck? I would be interested in the owner's thoughts on that.
