It was at Texas Custom Choppers, sold and then the owner wanted to put some custom airbrushing on the tins. since the scheme was black and silver, it needed to stay monochromatic. The owner of [...]

Blue real fire Harley Davidson! The best thing about this bike are the accents on the bike that we decided to paint. Such as the ring on the air cover and the inner faring and dash pieces. A lot of people avoid painting the inner faring (because it aint easy,) but whenever it is painted, the [...]

This grim reaper is on a Harley Davidson FLHX faring. Very cool…but it may not be what you want to see behind you!
Its all free-hand airbrushing. The owner wanted it to be pretty menacing. Its a great method of customizing a bike without re-doing the whole thing. We had a few references, but neither he [...]

There were alot of colors to this tank. I used a color matched red, Burple Kandy, silver ultra mini metal flake, Pagan Gold Kandy and bunch of silvers.

This is a bike that was a long time in the making. The owner and I went through about 20 paint schemes before he was happy, then he backed out of the build just before it was completed!

I’m not really a fan of flames or ghost flames because they are so cliché. But for some reason, I have a soft spot for yellow-to-red flames with blue pinstripes.

When I found out that a close friend had breast cancer, my shop decided to build a bike for the cause. After learning more about breast cancer, I realized how close I was to people who have gone through it personally or with a friend or family member.
Now the stereotypical thematic design for breast cancer [...]
