New Step by Step added to our Tips & Tricks 'advanced' section of our site.

In early 2008, we were commissioned by one of our regular clients to airbrush another plane for him. He wanted to go a bit wilder than the last one that we did for him which was a more traditional warbird paintjob.
The plane named Merlin which is a scale mustang warbird, was coated in a Charcoal House of Kolor basecoat before being clearcoated then wet sanded, ready for the airbrushing to commence.
Due to the planes name, we decided to airbrush a Mural of a wizard on either side of the plane. This step by step shows the process to complete the mural check it out using the following link.

New Medusa themed Harley Tank

We have welcomed the new year and all the new and exciting projects that are in stall for us in 2011. One of our first bike jobs for the year is to create a display Tank for Harley Heaven in Dandenong, Melbourne. To incorporate a few elements into the design, we decided to create a Medusa themed Tank. One side of the tank has an airbrushed lady laying down, her body from torso up is natural however from her waist down she has a snakes tail, this is to show her transforming into Medusa. The other side of the Tank has a fully transformed image of Medusa in rage, fangs exposed and her eyes ready to turn any warrior willing to gaze upon her into stone. The centre section is the life support for this particular artwork, a biomechanical theme with half skull half woman face, piping and stretched skin some of which interacts with both medusa murals.
Pictures of this project once completed will be posted here, on our social networking sites and our website.

BC Buell gets front cover of RAPID magazine.

This bike, built by BC (BikeCraft) has won numerous awards around Australia, and has recently been featured on the front cover of Rapid Bikes Magazine, issue # 62 - 2011.

The bike was completely customised by BC and took a reported 2 years to complete.

Airbrush Asylum was asked to complete the airbrush rendering of the Celtic Design and adding some BC logos to the mix. The Original design was created by Matt (BC) with the Candy green also applied by BC. Overall it was a team effort and we were really happy to be a part of it.

Now known as the ‘Cyclone’ this Buell is a fantastic example of a true custom Streetfighter, and we look forward to working with BC on many more of their unique custom builds.

Honda Tank : Ol 'School Wing logo

We were recently commissioned by Harley Heaven : Melbourne, to complete a Tank for Honda’s new bike which they are launching at this years Motorcycle Expo  which is held @ Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre 26-28th November 2010.

Honda wanted to utilise their 1960’s classic winged logo, which we incorporated into the design. Although the bike is a new model, they wanted it to appear ‘old school’...So, with that in mind the decision was made to clear the Tank in Matt Clear.

Airbrushed Koi Fish Trucker Hat Video

This video has been sped up to show the process in airbrushing, a basic Koi Fish design onto a Trucker Hat. The design was airbrushed entirely freehand, no marking out and no stencils...As you will see from the video the design was sketched with white, then shaded with a black mix, some steps were repeated to create a little more depth and highlights.
We hope you like the look of the finished product as most of our work is automotive it was enjoyable to paint something like this.
