Default Bike "Artwork"

I really wouldn't consider this artwork, but figured it was a convenient title. I've been playing around with calligraphy recently and found you can use fine point tips to draw if you can manipulate it right. I used a lot of ink and have been getting better as I go. If anyone wants one just ask, I'm going to try to make one with a rider, so if anyone would like one, post a high quality "ACTION" image and maybe you'll get it transfered it to ink & paper. I've been putting them on heavyweight "academie" paper that's the usual 8"1/2 by 11" which is acid-free and will last forever! I've been thinking about getting some nicer pencils to color with but we'll see how that goes...

For the Kawa guys!


Another Kawasaki, INCOMPLETE, my first try with color, one of my earliest...


Incomplete R1 LE... will get color when complete, half the beauty of this bike rest in that scheme...


Complete GSXR K5... sub-color, but should i use it?


Cars? The M3 GTR, the C5R, and a WRC STi...



I think I'm doing an RC30 or -51 next...

Hope you enjoy, WOULD APPRECIATE FEEDBACK on where you guys think I should go!

Nice work!! Ever consider comic books?
Somebody must make lots of dough drawing for Marvel, D.C., etc.,etc.
(or has that,like everything else, been delegated to the computer guys?)
