After seeing a picture of a Lamborghini covered in designs made with only a sharpie i decided that it was time to bring a little more life to my riot frame. This thread is dedicated to the progress of my sharpie designed riot. enjoy
Also this is not the only type of art I do, I mainly do portraits and fine art with pencil. This is the 1st thing i have done with a sharpie other then some doodles.
COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS So far: 50+ hours on it still on the first sharpie! no pre planning on the frame no guide lines used yes i will be doing frames requests for people(look lower for more details) YES I WILL BE CLEAR COATING IT and yes I will be testing it on another frame 1st
Feel free to post your input, advice, recommendations, and hate.
I have decided to start accepting requests to do this type of graffiti for other people bikes, because I am only 1 person I will start by doing 1 per week on a 1st come 1st serve basis. Therefor you will receive the frame approximately one week after I have received it + shipping time. If you live some what near by we may be able to arrange a meet half way, either from Toronto Guelph or my home in Elora.
I will be charging 200.00 for hardtail frames, this includes nearly any personal touches you would like included like your name, personal graphic, or even a certian style, etc.
For BMX's I will charge $160.00
For Fully's I will be charging more or less then 300.00 depending on the complexity of the frame.So if its a simple frame like a kona stinky it will be $220.00, if its something like a Karpiel Armageddon or something crazy like that then it will be $320.00
Clear coating is an option and at the moment I will be charging an additional fee of 20.00 for clear coat on hard tails and 40.00 for fully's (also depends on frame complexity).
Just decided that I will also do incomplete's meaning Ill do 8 inches of the head tube 8 inches of the chain stays and 6 inches of the bb...this way you can still get an awesome unique ride but it will be alot cheeper. Hardtail=$80 BMX=$70 fully=$100
Return shipping will be done by my dad, and is usually quite cheep, he has a lot of experience in shipping bike parts and always finds very cost efficient ways to do so.
Please feel free to email me at azonicrider32@hotmail.com or send a message on pinkbike, so far i have 2 requests and I will be making a list of more requests, again there may be a waiting list.
when i finish i will send it to blck mrkt and see what they think. after im done the frame im going to move on to my white halo rims and sharpie them up too.
