Artmageddon Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Very nice work. You've definitely got the eye and the talent for this(and this is coming from an artist/designer). I like your tank on the CBR a bit better, just seems a little darker to me. Post more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimbrandt Posted February 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 (edited) Here is my lid.......... just did this a month back. Its a scorpion ex400 and yes, you can see out just fine.

that dude Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 how did you paint the visor and still be able to see?..thats a sick ass lid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimbrandt Posted February 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 The visor has scrim (not sure if that is how ya spell it) on it....... the stuff you see in the back of pick up windows. You can see out but not in.......... I can buy it in plain white, then paint it what ever way I want to match the helmet and clear it. Its a sticker, basically................ the hard part is getting it laid flat on the curved visor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graphics like the scrim(it's called perforated window film) are what I do for a living, of course I just have a big machine print them for me, not true art like you do. There are tricks to laying the film, let me know if need some tips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAMBUSA Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Think I've seen your bike before. Car/bike show at Lake St. Mary's in Celina? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimbrandt Posted February 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 eh, no... didn't make it up that way last year. I was up at that show with my wifes sport trac..... silver with a blue fade, broken columns on the side with rose vines and a portrait of my son on the back. Will probably be there this summer................ and any other bike show I can find. (and my wife will let me go too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reimbrandt Posted February 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 cool..... I did'nt get the CBR till the later in the year last year, then it took me about a month getting it painted and fixed. I am addn some extra touches before it gets out this year and, like I said, I really want to hit some shows. Its fun and it is a great way to drum up biz.

Disclaimer Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Seriously, I'm impressed. How much to paint a lid (typically)? What designs can you do? I'm not much of an artist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A small insight to some of the crazy s**t I do. The sicker the better......Wow. That is awesome man. Once i finally get a bike again, i'd like to see if you could do something to mine. How much do you usually charge to do a tank/fenders, etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimbrandt Posted February 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 My lid work starts up around $200 with a base color and simple design work.... sky is the limits from there. Paint damn near anything......... I do old skool flame work to real fire, from murals to portraits. I have three lids... the one posted, one that is a whole bunch of skulls piled over the whole helmet, and the other is all skull with a smoked visor. The teeth are on the top and bottom of the visor (so the mouth looks opened) and there is a suzuki "s" cut in the back.(of the skull) My sons is painted to look like wood with a creature bustn out of the back....... depends on how screwy ya wanna get.
