White Helmet... Sharpie Marker... Boredom

A few months ago I won a white full face Shoei at a rally and as I don't tend to wear full face helmets and I'm not a great lover of white either, I decided I was going to stick it on e bay. However, before I got chance, I spotted a black sharpie marker pen within easy reach and being bored with nothing better to do, I attacked the helmet.

Here are the results. I'm not the greatest artist in the world, but it was very theraputic and I may even wear it occasionally if I fancy attracting attention.

Hey Arkie, I have an old white Bell 3/4 helmet. It's virgin, Amigo! What'd you charge me to do some Che', a Pancho Villa and maybe Hendrix (I'll supply pix of Pancho and Jimi)? You could just go nuts with the rest of it, do some cartoons, chinese characters, Jesus flippin the bird, whatever. C'mon, you could become a cottage industry...

Did I see Peter Criss?
Nice artistic work Ark
Well, all except Che,
Other than the despicable commie a-hole, Very Nice Work!
I wish I had the talent to doodle stuff like that.

Portraits are:

Che, Lennon, Dali, Munroe, Freddie Mercury & James Dean.

The rest are Kanji symbols that mean something to me and a bunch of other pics and symbols that have some significance in my life.

I think the return shipping costs to the UK would unfortunately make it a non viable proposition, but I'm flattered you asked, thanks.

You should stick this up on eBay now that you have decorated it. Might be surprised how much it will go for....
