Stuck at home with a broken leg
 

Was going out of my mind, with nothing to do, so I got my dads airbrush and an old helmet. I was just playing with some designs and thought I would share. The helmet was in pretty crappy shape, but I made the best of it. Let me know what you think, dont mind the ****y cell phone pics.

Pretty sweet if you ask me.

Looks great. I take it you have had some practice with the airbrush?

Thanks, Nick

This was my first week with an airbrush. I do artwork and I also like to paint, my dad had an airbrush laying around and it looked like fun. I am just messing with water base right now, so I can paint in my room without the fumes. Also, with the waterbase I can wipe it off and do something completely different on the same helmet. I plan on buying a new helmet for racing this year and I want to do my own design.

I call BS on never airbrushing before. ;)

Nice work man.

paint the crutches to match.

hell of alot better than i could ever do! needs skulls or something :)

it is nice but i would maybe do something on the "forehead" area. i see there is another shade of red and it might be more evident in person, if not though i would throw something cool up there

Yes it is more noticable in person, there are flames in the front. Here are some pics.

The helmet kind of reminds me of a cross between Speed Racer & Hot Rod.

matt it sucks that you have a broken leg the helmet looks great

Very cool, and impressive for your first week using it

The helmet looks kickass. want to paint some flames on my goat?

Lol, yeah it does. This was mine when I started riding quads, I was 4.

Thanks guys. Devin I would do it, I just want a little more practice. As soon as my brothers car is finished I'll let you know.

ah ya i see it. maybe try a pinstripe around the outside of it to make it pop more? i mean its your work and its kick ass, just some constructive criticism i guess.

If you get bored & want more small stuff to spray, let me know!

I'll try something, see what happens. Then I'm gonna strip it down and try something completely different.

What do you have? I have 6 more weeks of this!

a black, rock-chipped headlight cover off my TA!!

Why what did you have in mind, do you want it repainted black, or do you want a design on it?

Thought we were gonna see pictures of bone out of flesh.

airbrush your cast, like a broken bone on it lol

thats mad legit bro good for you

Sorry, its in a cast, not much to see.

Lol, I would but its from my knee down, I cant really reach!

Thanks, I just went to the paint store today and got some supplies so I can do more elaborate art work ie: flames, skulls, ripped metal and whatever else I can think of.

paint the crutches to match.

Maybe this weekend. I have fork covers from my dirtbike I could paint and screw on!
