I Need Your Opinions For Paint Options!

[Scottie J]

Hi everyone!

I'm in the process of finishing up the paint work on my '58 Indian Trailblazer.  So far the bike is completely black with 4 coats of black metal flake and 4 coats of clear.  I'm getting ready to wet sand all the parts and spray 3 more coats of clear.  My problem is that I'm undecided on what on I want to do to the gas tank as far as graphics or design before I put the final coats of clear on.  Here's a pic of the gas tank right now so you have an idea of what I'm working with.  If you have any other suggestions, just leave a comment saying your ideas.

Thank you everyone for your input and thoughts!

A picture of Bambi?
I'm not a flames fan myself. If I had to have flames, they would be very understated, barely.visible dark blue ghosts, and fading into the paint

I say let everyone know what you are riding. It's too cool to go unknown. 

Not to complicate matters, but I've seen "Bullet" done in a nice hand painted font before and have always liked the style.  Like this:

I am of two minds here
What I would do if it were my motorbike ?
( doesn't matter )

and

What would get my nod if I were judging the bike in a show or a picking the best at a rally ?
 
Gold Indian script on that tank would look absolutely stellar IMHO.

You guys all seem to like the gold Indian font (for the most part) and that's what I keep going back to as well.  So there we have it, I'll order them tonight!

It's an Indian, and it should say Indian.
That's my 2 cents.
