Artwork Study needed!

[mattiej]

Hi there,

I'm new here, but I need a favour.... I'm in the middle of developing a new type of personalised artwork. What I need is a brave guy or girl who has pics of their 916/748/996 etc (that shaped bodywork - no 999's/1098's yet please) - the more complex the paint job, the better.
Also, someone who is prepared to supply photo's of their face and leathers?

It'll be a characterisation of yourself and bike - Anyone up for it?!

Im up for it? What kind of pics are you looking for; on track, on road, or static with or without rider?

My bike is a 748 with an endurance style bodywork(one headlight). Satin black with yellow numberplates and white decals right now. It no longer looks like my Avatar.

Chris - Sounds perfect I was really suprised when no-one came forward, and was half way through a monster mob 996, which was a random image from google.

Tell you what I need, if you could kindly supply:

1) A big, clear photo of the bike from the right hand side (ie bike pointing to the right, without you on it - dead right, no 3/4 angles please matey)
2)Nice clear shot of the front (eye level lights?)
3)Nice big pic of your face
4)Finally a pic of your leathers/boots and (if poss) a shot of your lid from the front and sides
5) That actually sounds alot doesnt it? - but it'll be worth it, promise.

S'that ok?

I'm actually a graphic artist for childrens books, and use 3d polymesh modelling/texture mapping and all that kind of stuff. It takes a long time and lots of effort to do this (3/4 days), but you'll love the image. You can then (if you like) put onto vinyl/t-shirt/frame it etc.

Thanks Chris

I'll pm you my email address.

I've had a couple more offers from some kind folks to be a volunteer for my project - thank you for the Pm's guys

If anyone wants one after I've re-created Chris and his bike - let me know - but at the moment, no more kind offers please!

Many thanks!,
