I can only recommend the etoe channel on YouTube to anyone who wants to paint themselves (https://youtube.com/@ETOE?feature=share8). The master speaks personally and gives invaluable tips. And he takes the trouble to speak English even though he is Saxon.

Here’s my attempt from a couple of years ago. Not the best but it looks ok overall. Stupid portrait mode on my iPhone blurs some of it.

I'm going to hell.
At least you go in style, it looks really nice!
Unfortunately, there are not many pictures left. I painted the Fully with a brush in 2011.
The comic bike was a project for my girlfriend. It was mainly about finding out if and how I could do it. I am quite happy with it. But now I would build the bike differently.
The Drahtesel is the latest bike. There is also a build-up thread here.
1996...ish Market Bike
Since my girlfriend's old Peugeot drove like an anchor, a replacement was needed. It had to be green, preferably neon green, able to carry the shopping, not too expensive and unattractive enough not to be stolen in the city. Since I couldn't find a ready-made bike like this anywhere and wanted...
