Greetings fellow enthusiasts. Im a new member here, love riding and (attempted) building. I am an illustrator by day and I am on a quest to capture my appreciation of the influential people behind some of the most valued engineering and riding achievements from moto history.
I do all of my "paintings" in Photoshop with the use of a Wacom tablet. There is no photo manipulation going on. Each one is created from scratch while looking at a photo of my subject.
And now for the shameless plug: I am selling prints of these pieces. {$30 8x10} {$45 16x20}
Each one is on Fuji Crystal Archival professional paper either in matte or gloss but matte looks best IMO. All pieces are done in black and white with a slight sepia tone added to it.
PM if interested.
Below is a brief list of some of the people I will do/have done. I can also make a portrait of any person that you like be it personal hero/influence or whatever.
Rollie Free
Mike Baldwin
John McGuinness
Bernie Schreiber
Erwin "Cannonball" Baker
Glenn Curtiss
William Harley
Hideo Yoshimura
Nikolaus Otto
Norbert Schickel
Giacomo Agostini
Arthur Davidson
Mike Hailwood
Edward Turner
Kenneth Howard
