Motorbike helmet - from standard... to unique
This helmet is to showcase various freehand techniques - and of course, my ability.
With a Japanese theme, this is the left of the helmet and the traditional flag of Japan. This helmet is now glossed and finished article images are shown in slideshow above.

A dragons tale.... and its tail!
To continue the Japanese theme, a dragon was airbrushed freehand - additional photos have been added to show the dragons detail better. The silver background now appears less 'flat' and the finer details of the dragons' scales stand out
To bring in a bit of character
The pretty Manga character adds a bit of 'life' to the Japanese theme and really shows how with careful airbrushing, even the finer details of the contour of her stomach can be achieved. This freehand example is captured in such detail, it almost looks 'stuck on' !
Placing the girl on the back meant the Japanese flag and the dragon surround her and tie the three varying techniques into the one theme nicely.

To top it all
The top of the helmet clearly separates the two sides and allows them to be designs of their own yet making sure the helmet has a flowing theme.
The contours of the top were also done freehand, and the words 'Gee Designs' blended in nicely with the use of a stencil. These finer details stand out now it has been clear coated
