Ok so i had a thought for something that may be a little fun for the painters / artists who frequent the motoring message board. Also for the people who would like to 'have a go' at doing something arty.
Haven't got it 100% sorted yet but it will be along these lines.
1; We all have to use the same base item, be it a motorcycle tank, motorcycle helmet, clock, rubbisn bin (steel) or even a coffee table. (I'm leaning towards tank or helmet, they're around for little or even no $)
2; It HAS to be your own work.
3; You can use any paint medium you like, but preferably automotive refinish products (Spray cans fall into automotive so buy yaself a couple cans and have a go)
So i think we will start it at a time when everyone has their stuff together and voting will be by other MB members by way of the people entered put the pic's in here via their "my photo's" section.
The winner gets a choccy fish supplied by me.well c'mon did ya think i'd supply a trophy lol.
Soooooo who's in.

Onya mate. Yeah, that's why i thought tank or helmet. Nearly everyone knows someone with a sh*itty old bike or someone with a helmet at the back of the wardrobe somewhere lol.

be keen to do a tank or helmet. .hell.I'd be happy to send a bunch of lawnmower bodies around the place, to you guys if you want to pimp those suckers up.& the judge could auction the winning item off, i s'pose & do something vaguely "feelgood" with the proceeds !
(.or not ).
