airbrushed fuel flap

This wont be to everyones taste but i had a spare fuel cap laying about so i matt blacked it and handed it to my very talented tattooist/and painter mate lewis from life family tattoo sevenoaks and let him work his magic , it was then passed to a car painter mate who added 6 coats of lacquer i then added 2 coats of dodo juice hard candy and here it is





hope you like

Yeah. I can do flames and a few pictures, that sort of stuff (can pm you a few examples if you want).
It takes a bit of practice and a decent airbrush but is great fun.
I agree that some of the work on that forum is mindblowing (way out of my league).
