Commission for :icongman586: on his dream bike Specialized Demo 8 DH/free-ride mountain bike. it was actually my fist time painting a downhill bike compare to my previous bike art work which is mostly on XC and road bike. it was a bit of challenge for me as i'm not so familiar with downhill bikes and i have to rely a lot on research on the net to make sure all the parts and bike itself are true to what they are, the most challenging part was creating the diamond shape tatoo pattern on the bike.

lastly i have to thank :icongman586: for helping me to get some bike spare parts from the states and his patient of waiting for the commission since last year. it was the only commission i will do for the moment.

Demo 8's are so sick. I have a good-lookin' BigHit. I might just buy the Demo frame somewhere down the road. Almost 7 grand is steep for a bike.

Yeah, for sure man. Not really into the animal humanoid thing (no offense), but you really got this character blended in perfect in this pic. XC is fun, but sooo exhausting, for me anyway. I hope you get to try DH sometime!

Nice. You and your fascination of bicycles! This is one amazing gift for your friend for sure.

That is one badass bike for sure. Who could think a bike without motor and cooling fins can be so badass. ;)

Great to see you're drawing again. Also, I gotta hand it to you, you do the details on the bike very nicely.

Great job. :thumbsup:
