Title: Jeepmobil RCMP Motorcycle (by request)
Post by: Outback on March 01, 2007, 04:13:05

As promised for Richard...

I made this custom back in '04 as a personal challenge and to help complete my series of Mounties 1874-2004.

Note: The photo with the Red light on the rear stand is the final result and proper form. Blue lights were not used on the rear. That set-up was temporary until a second light could be obtained for painting in order to preserve the original.

I will try to shoot some new photos once I find this custom. It is still packed away somewhere. Perhaps he may find his way into cameo appearance in a photostory this summer  :yup:

Just for comparison, the original motorcycles looked like this...

I missed that one the first time around. Great stuff Dunc.
Were the decals ready made?

No Tim, I made the decals (just printed on paper actually) from larger graphic images and then coloured them by hand - didn't have a colour printer at the time.

Ah
I've used the same technique but with the color printer. Plain paper seems to work fine as long as it's not too thick.
