Custom Paint sticky??

gribbs

Coast to Coast
I was thinking it would be cool to have a thread just of custom paint jobs. I suppose stock paint schemes are actually the rarity around here, but I was hoping to find a collection of creative paint ideas to browse through, and there really isn't a specific thread for this....
 
it doesn't look like much in the photos, but the red is Spectraflame bright red candy over Ditzler Big Flake.

finally at least one pic pops up....dude that looks rad....and thats quite the project you got goin there!!! paint looks super wet and flake is blingin - me dig it
 
Thank you both.

That tank and side covers are currently sitting on a shelf in need of a new owner. I have gone in a different direction and will be changing my scheme along with the bodywork.


I've seen more custom paint jobs in our group. Who's next.
 
Here are some of the 1100 I took today in the sun:

Not buffed yet, but pretty shiny anyhow...Gold leaf over Deep Black pearl/ Electric Orange.
 
Haven't been here in a while, but it's a slow news day everywhere else so I figured I'd drop by.

Last year's project:

Love this photo! The light, the storage items, the shop rags... and especially leaves on the floor. There are photo stylists out there making bank setting up shots with this kind of "natural" look.

BTW - nice paint!
 
It's nothing that special, really, but I love it. I did the two tone myself with the help of my father-in-law, an amazing builder of all things cool. The pinstriping was done by Jeff Wolf out of Vancouver, WA.

Colors are BMW Titan Silver and BMW British Racing Green.
