OT/ photoshop needed
we seem to have some photoshop experts on this forum. maybe one of you can help me out. i have a streetrod that im going to change the paint scheme. instead of the run of the mill flame jobs, i was thinking maybe the boxercup scheme might look good. im open to suggestions. (other than burn it) currently the bike is blue with a silver frame. thanks!

Does it look like this, except blue where the yellow is? Not a lot of surface area to work with. Why boxercup (blue/white or red/white/blue)? Do you want it to still say Harley Davidson on the tank, or okay somewhere else, or not at all?
Johnnydanger and Hugo are the best at this kind of thing. I still need to learn more about adjustment layers...

Do you just want to deal with the body panels, or are you willing to paint the frame, engine, or wheels as well?

OK, silver/blue with red striping...
 BTW if you're going to paint the fueltank, rear and front fender and radiator cover then it can be more funky then just change the colour... Hugo |

Your welcome; are you going to powdercoat it black? Interesting would be using black chrome...there is an exhaust for the V-Rod made by Cary Faas (http://www.v-mod.com/shop/images/product/phat%20rod%201.jpg) which looks very nice and sporty. Hopefully they make it for the Street Rod...have fun with the project!
