Stiff-up your brush: paint porn

WOW fuck me sideways that is ugly. Seems odd that the focus of this thread is on blending, metallics and gaudy clashing colours, as if 'porn' just means 'as OTT as possible'. All colnago masters are ugly. most fades are ugly. These nasty effects have come to be associated with expensive or unattainable bikes. Put most of these colour schemes on a create and you'd immediately see they were mindlessly shit.

I appreciate that as I have not contributed any pictures this sounds like a snooty rant, and that's probably because it is. neg away xx

Won't have to neg you, because it's *only your* opinion. It's worth as much as the next men's.
That frame was mine and probably the best paint scheme I've seen live. See...? You hate it, I love it. There's no right and wrong.
Your definition of "gash" is mine of "wunderbar".
Shall we just deal with it?
