paint job?
ok so my SO is a bike person...not like Lance, but he does enjoy riding, and he wants to get a fancy new bike next year.
my question is, anyone think a BP pattern painted onto the bike would look neat? I told him I can do it, but wanted to know what someone else thought

Re: paint job?

scales...eh....can't really see it happening

Re: paint job?
I think it would be neat, but it would be a chore...
Most people would not get it though... Just a forewarning.

Re: paint job?
With the "Lance" reference I'm thinking the OP is talking about a bicycle...not a motorcycle.
Although scale type paint job on my motorcycle sounds awesome, I had a friend practicing on some of my old helmets that he wanted to do a the scale theme on.

It's hard to picture how it would look on a bike frame. Especially a road bike...they tend to not give you a lot of surface area to work with. :P Do you have an old bike that you could practice on...just to get a general idea of how it will come out? It might look really awesome, but like I said, it's just hard for me to picture.

I think it would be really cool, but it would be a lot of work. You would have to do the pattern fairly small so you can tell what it was, and you would have to work hard at the pattern. BUT, if you can do it, then hec yea! that would be awesome!

Re: paint job?
thanks for the enthusiasm. I do happen to have an old junker to try the pattern out on, but I too think it would look awesome :)
