looking for some inspiration....


want to see some nice graphic work (except more on the modest side, i'm not going to put a tiger ((or it's claw marks for that matter)) on the side of my truck)


honestly what i just thought of, as lame as it may be to you, is an EKG reading. (the heart monitor reading)

i mean i'm gonna be a doctor anyway, and what better graphical representation of my dreams?

ekg.jpg

what i was thinking was all black truck (black paint, 20% tint, black billet grill, blacked out lights, black faced mirrors (by face i mean the part you are looking at if you are facing the front of the truck), black raised ford emblem on the tailgate maybe?, etc etc.

i think a small red EKG down the body would look really nice, and i like the glow effect at the end of the above picture...

it was done on "pimp my ride" for a nurse it looked pretty good. an the red an black would stand out nice. were you thinking of keeping the same rythem all around the truck? give the guy whos doing it an actual EKG too maybe.

oh really, i never saw that episode... i'll check for it on the mtv site or like youtube or something.

yeah red and black would look really sharp i think. white ekg with black truck wouldn't look as nice.


uhm, idk maybe i could put a heart attack in the pattern or something lol.... i was thinking of doing two seperate ones down each side (maybe they could be different?)

just thought that if i had kids (first i gotta be old enough to even be thinking about having kids lol) i could get their EKG put on there... how cool would that be?


anyway lol.... i'll check on the pimp my ride episode.






==edit==
couldn't find the episode online, but i didn't look EXTREMELY hard.

I really like that idea man. EKG would be awesome. Maybe put the "glow" section somewhere towards the door handle??

i see your reasoning but i was planning on putting the EKG more towards the bottom, but i guess idk why i just thought of it like that.

door handle is too high for me though personally. if i lined the EKG up (the midline of it) with the middle of the tail light that would be kinda cool.. i could do the glow part disappearing into the tailight...

idk how i thought of the idea either, was just thinking about all the cosmetic/somewhat structual upgrades i wanted to do, and thought about how i didn't want just a plain black truck... then i thought about a graphic, and EKG popped up lol.
 
hmm ima look an see if i can find it and a few EKG patterns that look cool yet can be done with ease by the painter
