Paint job ? . . . . (Badly photoshopped) :D

Post by slot »

I've just been toying with a new paint job and combined with my excellent PS skill's !!! :?
Just wondered what you lot thought of this badly photoshopped paint scheme on the Storm ?

It's taken from the retro CB, that's supposedly being built ?

Love those colours - the only thing is the blue on the rear loks too little needs to be a bit deeper and flow under the seat a bit more.

Then again could look wrong if it doesn't have a pillin seat on

Hmmm - actually looks very nice and the bikini fairing means the side rads look OK.

I like it a lot.

I like that too SLOT, but agree about the seat like Stu says. The colour needs to do the seat pad undercut thing!!! You did a good PS job IMHO.

Always lusted after the original CB1100R - the nearest I got was a CBX550F2 which I sprayed up as a CB1100R replica. Got nicked in Lincolnshire by a cop who thought it was one and therefore I must be speeding!

Shame I haven't got any photos but it was quite easy - a white pearl spray and a bit of masking for the red & blue, transfers and lacquer et viola
