Harley Davidson Nightster

Graewerld — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 21:06:22 GMT

A customer came in with this beautiful motorcycle -- The Harley Davidson Nightster -- and wanted it to be unique by having me create laser-engraved parts all around his bike. Here is the stages of design for the cover plate he wanted until he decided on the last one.

I had a ton of fun working with him on this project. We must have altered about 10 different sections. All original too.

The checkerboard may look like it has a fisheye effect, but everything is straight and aligned.
