i just cant ddecide on whether i should put motif's inside the bubble or not :(

When you look at the bubbles they almost look like planets, and if you think of it in such a sense, it would appear as if she's holding the universe in her hands or that the world is her oyster :)

Wow, looks great!!! Love your work man!
Maybe you can give me some advice on case spraying? I'm gonna attempt to spray a Super Lanboy black :D
Probably take me like a year though :rolleyes:
 
Looks great.. I have started airbrushing this week :D ,been a paintsprayer for years and always wanted to try airbrushing but never got around to it till now .

Any particular reason you have the light/highlight coming from underneath the bubbles on the other side compared to the first side (where the light source is from above) or is that just artistic license,or will there be some feature below ?

Very cool seeing your progress shots -I'm sure you,ll girlfriend will love it !

Im glad you noticed !
theres bno particular reason, but it was entirly intentional ( sp sp ??)
call it artistic license if you want though.
latest pics:

my next idea was to incorperatye lauras ( my girlfriend) tattoos into the design. luckly i still have the original design to hand so i was able to copy ist exactly.

she has 8 outlines on her stomach of 5 pointed stars. these kinda things look good blended in with airbrushing. so here goes.


Fierst of all i will point out that it rerally did atke more than an hour just to mask these things off !! - and i ran out of 1/16th fine line tape so had to make my own !

Cool - yeah I can imagine how long it took ! ,from my little play at a bit of stenciling it takes a lot longer than I thought it would.
