Stiff-up your brush: paint porn

With several different flavours of bike porn, not to mention lug porn, wrap porn, tool porn, knife porn (!), massive crank ring porn (!!) and even diesel porn (?), the lack of a paint porn thread is an obvious gap in the market.

I love the uber-cool, understated pinstriping of Cromaworks, which doesn't detract from Harry of Field Cycles work:

At the other end of the spectrum is Dario Pegoretti who does the paint on his own frames: mostly abstract graphics and cut & paste images he can also turn his hand to more classic schemes:

Those are land sharks.

My all time favourate is a candy apple red Crumpton. Bare unidirectional carbon fiber, with a translucent red coat.

Inspired by the old Klein Attitude, I really like the paint job on this.

klein paint jobs where they look like two colours at the same time are amazing, chameleon paint jobs like gabes's below

that was one sweet MTB shame it was 2cm's too small

I also really like this one.

Cheating to put one of my own bikes here? I didn't paint it so...

This was always one of my favourite colour schemes... and the lugwork and workmanship is just incredible.
