Do you like my new look?
12/17/07 at 13:35:39

I'm pretty much done with my bike!
A few little things that I want to perfect, but that can wait till later!
I can be pretty sure that no guy will ever take off with it Tongue

And before you ask, no those are not decals, but painstakingly cut out designs I printed on the back of contact paper
Here are some pics:

Got fancy here Cool

What do you think of my key chain?

Sorry guys, no decals!
I found those designs online, and saved them on the computer.
Then I inserted them into Microsoft word and "unstuck" them so I could twist and resize them.
Then I printed the designs on the back of contact paper, and cut them out.
Sticking a cut out flimsy design on a curved surface is a pain in the neck!!! I got it though, and used two kind of spray paints to fill in the design, silver and metallic sprinkle paint. It was an awful lot of work, and I would do it differently if I had known, but it's done!
