Green Frame - Any comments

[sbhumphrey]

After much deliberation I think I am going to plump for green for the frame with white wheels and white and red tank, seat cowl, fairing and belly pan. Does anyone know of anyone who has gone with a green frame? Could be a fashion disaster but it won't have been my first (I was an eighties boy).

Find one the right style and photoshop it? Or ask me nicely and I might have a go :biggrin:

Doesn't have green as a frame option but it may be a start you can then photoshop easier.

There was another link, which I've been looking for, which allows you to use pretty much any colour.

Think Albie posted it?

I like this sea green with silver, though Tricolore would work well with frame & wheels the same colour, the tank, screen & mudguard in the second colour, and some detailing in the third.

Hours of fun :chuckle:

Thanks for this, now to improve my paintshop skills. I have knocked up a dodgy first shot at the colour scheme and also an example of the style of the paint work on the tank with the old ducati badge, but I will reverse the colours on the tank.

Looks a bit like a DIY tricolour

Not my bag but then I've never been a big fan of anything green

[sbhumphrey]

I do like the tricolour but just on my terms. Love the Ducati colours but want something a little individual

Paint the wheels yellow as well and you would have a John Deere!

I have the hulk monster in my living room on my shelf it's very um green!! Not a nice green :(
have a play with photo shop. I brought some little monster models so I could play about and paint them to get a feel for what I wanted.

Looking at your pic with the green frame a thinish green line or thick green pinstripe between the red and White would balance the paint out a bit and carry the theme through the frame .. Just a thought

[sbhumphrey]

Did consider a green pin stripe alongside the red. Need to speak to the guy who is doing the painting...
