i dropped the fishtail and mount a short fire-breathing turn out exhaust pipe. it's from the early WR racemodels and really makes some noise. kids run away screaming... :D
At the CUSTOMBIKE 2009 in Bad Salzuflen, Dietmar asked me for a pinup graphic for his vintage Bol D'or gastank. "What kind of pinup do you need?" "Hm, the bike should be called Brown Sugar..." So here it is. Hope it will be painted soon.
#01 of the target illustration series. The police forms call him Advanced Silhouette SP-83A; in some gun shops, he is B-60. He is widely known in police and gun-club circles as the Thug, a life-size, two-dimensional paper target that every New York City police officer has shot at since the early 1960's.
He has not changed over the decades, a husky white guy, maybe a little German, maybe a little Italian, some Irish, with his pug nose and his thick head of dark, wavy hair. His hands are hairy, his jowls clean shaven. He favors a red-on-white track suit that is a little snug in the middle. Whatever the Thug wants with that gun, he seems to be eating well.
