Oh, and if you need a pic to photoshop it onto how about trying it on this one... (do the tail, lower, upper, and side grill in the green)

Something like this, back way up from your monitor and squint your eyes... Anyone out there with actual skill please jump in and doctor one up, this is just to give an abstract sense of what I'm talking about...

Can you do it in Gimp Max? I don't care what software is used, just trying to get a better visual of what it would look like in the green/black two tone scheme, something other than my infant crayon mock-up below...  :)

Hey WG, long time no talk...  ;) :rotflmao:


Ya, I've seen those darker green pics but I prefer the lighter metallic green and black combo like on the ZX14 below, thanks though!

Well, I got some results, but not very good :)  Much, much better than what you had, but not worthy of posting.  Suffice it to say I am not a graphic designer!

Thinking of adding a bit of pizzazz to the midnight rider?

Post it up Max, I can squint eye it... The one I posted below I did in about 30 seconds just to show which parts to do.


As for actually doing it I'm undecided, just debating for a winter project, I've received more don't than do pm's though so far... My farkle list is done as of now...
