As hopefully some of you will remember, near the end of last month I posted up this thread regarding my latest trace; the Suzuki SV650S.
I had a lot of very positive feedback from many of you and the one comment that kept cropping up was along the lines of "Wow, I can't wait until it’s finished". So here it is! It took longer than I expected to complete because I've been busy with work and other things lately but today I've cracked down and got this bastard finished!
All together the trace has taken me around 7 hours to complete and there are still several errors and anomalies within it but I can't be arsed to go over the entire thing again making it 100%. Never the less I am very pleased with the outcome and am proud to present to you my latest and by far greatest trace yet..
Enjoy. ^__^

You have some pretty nice shading and highlights going on in there, I like the whole exhaust pipe, it's looking pretty sweet.
Trace a jet fighter or something, those are cool.
And if you have a lot of time to waste, trace a big military ship.

Thanks for your praise and yeah... My next trace was going to be a plane of some kind but to humour you I'll make it a harrier jet or something. ^__^

Mmm... I was never actually interested in this thread, but it turned out great! Especially the non-lined one looks great! Though, I remain sceptical towards tracings.
A rather disgusting-looking git that should have been disposed of ages ago.

I'm glad you noticed the tank, this was by far the hardest part to colour. And as for the original image a small version can be found HERE. (As you can see my tank isn't exactly the same but looks ok anyway).

Close but no cigar, I've attached an image showing how I made up the tank. Enjoy =D

Fucking awesome man! I've seen some of your other traces, but this is just from another world. Really great, I would expect to see this kind of work as box-art for a bike miniature model or something.

Umm....
Your pic looks just about exactly the same as that one.
Add a shadow and it would be fucking perfect, really does look wonderful.
Use it for something!

As someone's posted in the older thread flash would lag with something like this in. Though If anyone ever want to try using it in flash feel free. =D

It would be pretty cool for this week's SOTW contest. not sure how well it would work without a rider though.

I'd never try to draw a rider on it, It would have to be as detailed as the bike to look alright and I'm not about to start that. ;)
Might use it in a future sig though. =D
