G paint schemes

Well I've had ago at some paint schemes for G's race bike.
we wanted something that stands out for both spectators and also will be good for sponsors.

it's something that is going to be painted my the mighty BCF spraying crew, so It needs to be not too complicated and easy to touch up.

Also once we have seen the races at Snetterton this weekend we can see what colours others are using so we know what not to use, if possible.

I used this image as base:

and came up with the following designs:
(please ignore the spelling mistake)

However some points that I had missed/forgotten were that G's bike has yellow powdercoated wheels and he has black/blue leathers, so this might be the logical scheme:

what do you think?

Cheers for taking the time to look at it Thumbs Up

.

I'm going to need more places to stick minor sponsors; ie those listed on: https://www.giffould.com/ + one more that I haven't added yet 'cos I've been busy/crap.

I was also hoping to get a bigger BCF logo on there.

If anyone has any ideas for a 'BCF Racing' style logo; based on the current eyes probably, I'd be happy to hear them.

Also, sorry, but the lines aren't massively to my taste, not major dislike either though Smile

.

It should be noted that my bike doesn't have the stubby seat unit like that one has and that race numbers have to be a specific size (I can check it up if needed).

Yep, blue and yellow rocks.

get different colour wheels Thumbs Up

Oh yea, my dry wheels are black, while the wet wheels are yellow.

That can be changed at some point as well, though.

The yellow wheels are blingin' - leave them be!

Personally, I think you should take inspiration from this dazzle camouflage boat...

Ok,
I will play with some other ideas..

If anyone wants to add some input, doesn't necessarily need images.

I will have a go with an idea Bendy scetched up as well.

G, do you have a deal with vinyl? cause I had a few ideas but it would have been a bit more complicated vinyl affair.

For me at the moment, the colours are relatively unimportant compared to the placing of sponosrs ec.

Red and silver looks nice, so does the blue and yellow but I think red and silver is more unique.

My contribution, also added in the other thread in 'off-topic chat'.

It just needs some stitching effect added in the orange around the black, and some ring holes, and some cable ties kinda squeezing it on.

But that was beyond my photoshop abilities.
