Default Updated pics of my art car project!

I said I would keep you guys up to date when I reach milestones on the project so here ya go. The piece I did today went from shaky doodle, to pin-up masterpiece...only took 3 hours in the cold....on the ground Whattaya think! I want to add a catchy name to it, something I can add to this piece to give it more emphasis. I want this to be the centerpiece of the passengers side.

I like it! You are very talented.

Do you get more than one shot at a line or is it "one and done".

Well, it's lab grade indelible ink lol, so one and done. But you can always got to a larger tipped pen and try to redraw the line to pick up inconsistency, which I did here, but mostly in this case just to make the piece pop, and stand out. It was originally applied with an ultra fine tip pen.
