WHEN THE SHIT GOES DOWN YOU BETTER BE READY!!

Spent the whole day painting all the whatsits and dodas,
spent for ever getting all the deep scratches out of
the fender (well my new apprentice Angus did),
and last painted the fender and tank black.
I HATED IT!!
With less than a week until the show, i will
have to come up with an idea in my sleep
and lay it down tomorrow......

CHECK OUT FLAKE AND FLAMES !!!

My good buddy Jesper Bram has made an awesome
movie called FLAKE & FLAMES.
Well i don't know if he's that good a friend as i am
NOT in the movie, but its still worth watching :-)


What is Kustom Kulture? Who created it? And why is it 
such a global phenomenon? Independent filmmakers 
Jesper Bram and Dirk Behlau decided to find out, 
traveling the world for a year to talk to Kustom Kulture’s 
most talented exponents. 

Jesper is an internationally acclaimed 
pinstriper and artist and Dirk is a similarly admired 
lifestyle photographer, and their kustom kredentials 
opened doors and gave them candid access to top-notch 
names like Coop, Frank Kozik, Von Franco and The Pizz… 
amongst many other kustom artists and fabricators. 
The resulting 75-minute ‘Flake and Flames’ documentary 
is a pounding drool-fest of the planet’s koolest hot rods, choppers, art and music. It’s a film made with passion, it’s crowd-funded… and for the first time brings you an in-depth look at kustom kulture!

You could be part of Flake and Flames! To contribute to the production (and get some cool swag in return) just go to http://support.flakeandflames.com
Release date: Dec 2012

COOKING UP THE GOOD STUFF.....

My good buddy Nicholas and i thought it would
be a good idea to try and do a little home chemistry.
It is the ancient art of parkerizing, instead of buying
very expensive 'Parkerizing solution' we decided to 
make it ourselves, and here are the results.....
