 Posted: 15:14 - 24 Mar 2009  Post subject: Thinking of airbrushing your Bike'n'Helmet for this summer? |
 |
|
Hi!
London based Airbrush Tattoo Studio is booking new jobs this spring/summer. But would airbrushing on bikes/helmets/cars be popular during that not-so-happy-period of crunchy recession? For ideas please go to:  www.airbrushtattoostudio.com.

There's too many colours and too much text on your home page. Not nice to look at too much too read.
Make it more simple. Looks like someone tried to be clever and f*cked it up. 
Shame there's not a section for visitors to advertise stuff like on here without getting their wrists slapped. |

That's the very first forum in my life, by the way, and I'm 44!
Don't want to break the rules but don't really know what is happening here.... what people do and what people want...just let me see what's going on. If i'm not wanted here - I'll f*********!!! 
The site it a temperary one, I'm working on a proper with lots of possibilities, but it will take time though...

OK Top tips (applicable to any forum)
If you're selling something, stick it in the 'for sale' section. May sound obvious, but we don't want to have to trawl through countless adverts for Viagra, the latest boots from Hein Gericke or the latest updates on biker dating before getting to the usual dross.
Secondly, it is considered impolite to post the same thing in multiple forum areas. I don't want to have to trawl through multiple instances of the same post whenever I log on to the forum.
Lastly, your services may be wanted on the forum, so don't annoy its members by doing the above. There is a lot of potential business here.
As a more specific question, It might be worth explaining what precautions you are taking to make sure the crash helmets are still useable after painting. As you know the primary constituent of a modern lid is polystyrene which is eaten up by the solvents in certain paints and lacquers. Some manufacturers also void warranties if you dismantle helmets too, and I'm sure people wouldn't want compromised safety for the sake of a paint job.
Still, keep up the good work. Also, can I reccomend against the use of FM lids? if you want to be seen as a high quality outfit, I'd suggest using Arai, Shoei, Shark, AGV, Roof etc in future

 you posted on the MCN forum at least, several hours before you posted on this one.
If you want people to believe your claims about not being a spammer and being all 'innocent', it's best not to lie about things very easily found-out on the internet!
For the record, there's a 'links' section (look up) that has all sorts of useful, well, links to bike services amongst other sites. |
I am not a spammer, just wanted to get in somehow, get known, and how do you think I can do that otherwise? The question I ask on forums is real - I need feedback, I need to know whether to do it or not, and what to do - bikes and lids, or cars, or guitars, etc...In my time I've done a yacht, a boat, some planes and a helicopter, but it was in another life, in another country, where work like that is widely available... Back in UK I need to get back to work, so trying all possible channels. Didn't want to go on a forum at all, by the way, but my postings on LINKS were ignored. I like doing bikes, if you ask me.....

Most of the jobs on these pics I've done in another country, where lived for a number of years..guess what one? So I use some pics on my site done by me over there as well, but you know what, an artist doesn't have rights even to pictures of jobs he's done if he is working for someone else, in someone else's studio or garage. Now I work for myself but have to take some images of my jobs off certain sites. We all do that. By the way, I copied that Godfather bike twice to order, but could not find any of the images apart from this. Removed.

I laquer with Glasurit HS Laquer (High Solid Laquer), one of the best ones, you can use it even on foam or similar..... and paint with waterbased auto paints (made in USA), same as anyone else use - manufacturers in auto spraying and us, airbrushers in aerography. They don't eat up anything including any plastic /polystyrene...
Thanks for your advice, by the way! Question: I tried to post in LINKS but nothing happened, so posted on forum instead, but shouldn't have I guess... Any chance to let me post in LINKS, so I don't touch forum anymore? Is my bad karma permanent? Please advise, I'm new to this corner of the world...

Ah, fair enough. If you are indeed Steve Nunez, I'm more than happy to stand corrected. In fact, I've just dropped a mail to Bay Cycles commiserating them on losing such a talented artist - I have no doubt they'll be happy to recommend your work!
Welcome (back?) to the UK! 
PS - you're still listing a US number on stevenunez.com - probably a good idea to update that in case you lose any business!
