Looks great in the mag, its just a shame that those monster Glowble flakes get "flattened" by photography. You need to see it in the flesh and in sunshine to get the true effect.

Re: Want to learn to custom paint ?
My lad fancied a go at painting, so he has been over to Simon this week to do the three day custom painting for beginners. He has never held an airbrush in his life before. Really great results for his first time: http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w557/crmaniac1/IMG_4856_zpss0xfuyrq.jpg The skulls...

Re: How much paint needed?

Re: Scooters India Limited
Profiteering? Boy I wish all you suckers could have seen all us dealers at our annual convention. All of us sitting atop mountains of money dressed in the finest fur coats and diamond encrusted tonic suits, whilst drinking the finest champagne and then not drinking it BECAUSE WE CAN.

Re: Scootering mag
I'm not sure about the engraving and gold plating etc.either Jeremy Howlett hit the nail on the head in the 80's. I am not sure I have ever seen anything that topped Spirit Walker if bling is your thing. Everything in that style since has been a very expensive "me too" exercise. A good cus...
