please be kind, Metallica Pirate

Ok, I'm on vacation, it's raining, wife's at work, site was down for maintenace, and I was bored. So I figured I try a shot at handpainting a extra Pirate I had. It's not professional, but it's mine, and if I get bored with it, I'll give it a acetone bath and start over.





Thanks.......
Frank

 

The heart on the arm is great

 

Havin fun with 'em. Onya!

 

I am trying so hard to be kind, but...words escape me...

 

Should I tell you it started life as a GID

Not really, it was a Desert, I bought from a local, and it was scratched all up.

 

looks well balanced.

 

That's because he's got the kickstand down.

 

ok i'll not be a jerk. I do like the concept, i like the colors, and even the design. i just hate the brush strokes & the shine of the paint. seems like good design, bad materials.

 

Like I said, I'm not a professional, no airbrush, and anybody can do 1 solid color on a item, just messin around after his bath I might spackle it
the options are endless

 

BTW I always pictured him on a chopper

 

I think he might be one of my favourite customs, cuz you did it, as opposed to thought about it, regardless of the type of paints & ability.

And the bike is perfect for him.
