Here is a jacket I painted recently, the design is inspired from WWII nose art and those old bulldog tattoos. I keep the colors toned down and gave it a aged matte clear coat and look forward to seeing it after some use when the cracks set in…

Here are some flasks that I painted, they have been on display at the last Lowbrow party. I found the old suitcase for them at a junk shop right before the show, it was perfect. I think it is a nice set.

Here is my latest Nose Art style jacket. the pin-up is inspired from a found image from WW2 jacket and a similar from a WW2 planes nose art. The machine gun and lettering I came up with myself. The letterstyle used is my own script but it is modified to resemble a 1930’s speedball text called “personality script”
As usual the fades are all brush blended wet-to-wet rather then airbrushed for durabilities sake.

This is a my trade for the tattoo I got from Paul Bosch B.L.B.C. NYC last time he was in town..

Paul is back in Stockholm now till the 3rd of September, working at Salvation Tattoo and at their booth for the ink bash, if you need some work done.

Nille (Salvation Tattoo) ordered some nose art for his air force jacket, the character is taken from an actual WWII planes nose art..

Here is Sherr’s scissor holster. Sherri cut my hair at Sivletto but has now relocated to Norway. If you get the chance you should get a hair cut from her, she is a cut above the rest.

Here is Fredriks Jacket updated now dolled up with pin-up legs and script lettering, to show his love for, of course his lady..Dixie Bell of the Knicker Kittens! For more on the kittens bookings and other info go to……. http://www.knickerkittens.com

“In keeping an aesthetic profile that spans the late 19th Century up until the end of the 1950?s, the Kittens maintain the innocent allure of glamour girls, cheesecake queens and pin-ups of yesteryear, and keep the contemporary fleshmarket sleeze firmly at bay. “

I just got done painting up this jacket, the eyeball I painted a while back and then we decided to add some stripes. the leather on the arms was all worn out so I primed with clear to keep the 1shot from sucking in, and it actually worked alright!
