Title: mahoooosive thanks to GRIFF
Post by: chubby on February 25, 2013, 09:41 PM
after all the negative vibes floating round rad this weekend,thought a tale of one member going the extra  mile for someone they've never met might rekindle the rad spirit....
Got this 84 futura freestyler a while ago, plan being to leave as is & nail it together
(http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r559/chubby1971/2013-01-08154412.jpg)
plan was great until i tried to sort some decals,there's not many of these about & the decals on them really didn't float my boat...
Had the idea of getting rads premier artist to design some for me, he was too busy so i asked griff instead 
:2funny:. Within 30mins he'd sent a couple of ideas & they were great,griff printed some trial one & sent em down,they looked so cool there was no way i could put them on the frame as it was. A mad change of colour & then griff changed his colour scheme & off to del they went....
The end result is the dogs &thanks to del for printing em up  :daumenhoch:
Here's a sneek peek as the bikes not totally finished yet

(pics are bit crap)
So a huge thanks to griff for doing them for me you're a legend mate  :4_17_5:

Very Nice.

Griff mentioned these to me a couple of weeks ago, but gave no details.

Not at all what I was expecting.

We've all seen Griffs usual style and I was expecting something autistic artistic like that!

Another talent in our midst, he's not all `calendars and Johnies'!!

Was just happy to help you out mate, ESP since I've got no builds planned it was nice to have a little bit of input into yours
Sorry for late reply still in Istanbul (& I haven't even had a kebab yet)
Did see some sheep heads on a rotisserie earlier though

They look tops.
