Re: Idea for paint

Re: Idea for paint

Im thinking of this colour its just photoshoped at the moment.
like a translusent green so you can still see the grain in the metal

joe! what can i say? love the paintfromMarsthing! that is one kool fighter 8)

and feel free to use the logo, it's only slightly modified from the original... :wink:

 

[Robert Corrie]

Please dont take offence but ........I think I would rather ride the orange one.

 

[joe.d]

what Orange one

 

[outofcontrol]

I sure do miss her.

Joe, that bike's sick!!!
I have photoshop, how did you tint those tins like that?
-K

 

[joe.d]

Mask the area's you want to change, then use the colour balance tool to change the colour in the masked area.

 

[danbouck]

I Love the colour

 

[joe.d]

SO the other day I actually went out and bought the paint, I was gonna paint the thing in twoi shades of gray, white and black URBAN CAMO, but now Ive decided against it. Im gonna keep it silver and just keep on waxing the steel tank.

that was a close one for sure...I guess I could of allways of stripped the paint off again.

I like that choice man I thought the plain tank looked cool.

I like that choice man I thought the plain tank looked cool.

I think I agree too Joe. The green color looked good but the plain metal has a robotech kind of look to it that goes with what you have done to the bike and is really cool looking.

 

[UncleMike]

The thing's gonna be dead sexy no matter what.

 

[joe.d]

heres my New subframe rails I just made up
when its alltogether its gonna look something like this

instead of looking like this

 

[sidd]

Oh boy, thats a genious touch. If you don't mind, I might have to steal that idea for my bike or at least do something similar.

 

[joe.d]

heres the new sub frame, ive got to do some more work on a battery box, its tight in that subby, not alot of room, and a little tig welding, a undertray has to be fabed as well.

the thing is basicly all there, the bike is filthy though, I guess thats me own fault taking out in the last few weeks when it was warmer but there was still lots of filth on the god damn Roads

 

[sidd]

very nice. Your progress is inspiring me to get my damn wheel on so I can work on cosmetic/quasi nessisary mods like this.

 

[katanarama]

definately INSANE!

you can say that again.

 

[katanarama]

btw - whats the story on that GS11EF hiding under the plastic sheet in the background?

 

[joe.d]

My EF ... its got 92 GIxer 1100 front end, 92 Katana ( teapot ) rear, gixer 1100 clocks, wolf pipe, raask rear sets, standard motor with low K's its a beast

 

[Hoomgar]

Joe!!!!

I have been trying to get in touch with you about the Turbo mate. I know you moved and so I am not sure any of my messages are getting to you? I tried calling the last number I had for you but am getting a voice on the voice mail that I don't think is right any more? I am posting here hoping you see it as I don't know any other way to get in touch with you anymore?

Drop me a line man! If you see this, check your PM's, I left you my number there.

Hope all is well with you?

Mark

Has any one seen or heard from Joe? I paid him in full for the Seca and haven't heard from him in a long time. I know he had some rough roads up his way of late but I am starting to get concerned. $1,500.00 is a lot of money man. Any and all tips on how to get in touch with him would be appreciated.

Before anyone lights a touch or reaches for their stave I want to say I believe Joe is a straight shooter. He is just down on his luck right now so I want to give him every benefit of the doubt here. I am simply trying to find a way to get into contact with him.

His phone numbers, and address are no longer current and I believe he doesn't have Internet access any more either.

 

[getsum]

Ouch

Ouch

HOOMGAR - I am sorry to hear about this ----------

Have you been in contact with him yet ?

I am truly bummed about this
