New picture for the new page.
This is a three stage process to create a copper plating effect over carbon.
The process is complex and unforgiving. Not fun but the results are epic.

Look at that Scoble stack!

Tell me about it.
We work on really amazing projects that just fall short on the tiniest details.
It does my head in! -

That is fantastic! Is there a special type of pen / ink that must be used? Or has it been air brushed? What is the rough price to do your side of the work?

DUDE!
These are really good!
Any full bike pics? -

Thanks mate.
We recommend Posca over Sharpie because of the way Sharpies fades over time.
Costs depend on lots of variables... substrate material and condition particularly.
Effectively, you pay for a single colour finish and then a clearcoat afterwards.
All the prices are over on the Cole Coatings Workshop website.@Hamishio had one done too...

Mate.
These are sick.
Minimal finishes are hard to get right.
There's not really anywhere to hide any errors either! -

So Yeah, as @coldharbour said, I go under the pseudonym of Doktor Bobby on Instagram, and my company is called Colourburn Studio.
Some stuff that I've done that I like:

Top stuff!

These are great!
With the one with the good vibes graphic how do you produce that? Can a customer supply an image file and you get the decal cut? -
• #43
Many thanks.
I mostly paint my own designs, but also paint designs from the customer when it's required (mostly a few frame builders who do their own designs).
I do all my graphics in paint, I don't use vinyl stickers for graphics. I use a Roland vinyl plotter to cut my own stencils and masks out of masking vinyl from vector files that have either been provided by the customer, or created myself.

Great thread, spectacular stuff from all concerned. Since the thread was open to "anything", here's my first effort: a spray.bike balance bike.

I've been known to dabble.
Velocolour and @hoops always blow me away with their work though.

I remember seeing on here a while back, someone posted a picture of a painted stem - grey, silver, possibly a geometric wolf head (?) design on it. If that rings any bells could you post it again please?

Its six posts above yours

amazing! got a full pic of the frame/bike?

@hoops realised through this thread that the frame below is your work. Saw it in Cloud9 the quality especially around all the details was stunning.

Really love the effect.
How much of the 'webbing' product did you get through on each frame?
