I had this idea to airbrush some skulls on my bike but after some thought and a few of the same suggestion from different people I am now thinking of airbrushing  a chrome transformers symbol on it. To me it seems a little kiddish but that is what I am is a big kid what do you guys think

hay drunkinshooter, ive been painting and airbrushing for a few years now and have done a few transformer symbols on different things, it looks good if its not to big, did the hole hood of a car with one and it was to much, its all in placement and size, and how do you paint chrome ?

I also did one were i just edged it in with a white pearl, just a light mist, it was on a charcol grey helmet, and you could just see it, looked really cool when the sun hit it. kinda like a ghost image, its there but you gotta really look to see it, hard to see in dark, but the sun really makes it pop.

trooper, if you're into airbrush, you should get up to speed on the chrome replica paint, cause you can get some very nice effects with it... just browse the web a bit and you'll get tons of info & how to's.
