NoLongerHere Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 My brother's started to get in to painting bike frames and I thought it would be nice to create some templates that would show potential designs in a slightly more realistic way. Often it's just a flat drawing which doesn't give you quite the idea of what it would look like all finished and shiny. So here's the first two I've done, road/track frames with fairly random default paint applied. The highlights and shadows are blend modes so will work with any colours. They're not extremely detailed but enough to give you a better idea. A_B_C, Burny, Emrebel and 16 others 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoLongerHere Posted September 18, 2018 Author Share Posted September 18, 2018 The same idea but mocking up a paint scheme for a frame he's going to work on this time using a photo. DesignSurge, Emrebel and Danika 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoLongerHere Posted August 9, 2019 Author Share Posted August 9, 2019 Those angles are a bit (a lot) too steep for me but as it defies gravity I guess that doesn't matter The first thing I would do is swap the saddle, it doesn't look comfy.

Scottish Stu Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 I know this is an old post but hoping you can help. I also paint bike frames as am a spray painter and started doing for friends etc. Can I ask what software you used to do the designs? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
