improved photos of Mikes panels





Kelpie, give it ago, but give yourself time to get used to how the paint flows, I am not artistic but I understand how to shade, make stencils etc to get the final effect. I can impart my little knowledge to give you help. I will also send you a few links if you want Kelpie on good forums for airbrushing and where I buy paints and other things from.

Nice, small enough not to dominate but large enough to individualise the bike. The figure you air brushed on the front of the LHS fairing though is scary
