Possible Brag and Drag plaque/shirt pics

[81xsproject]

Chev asked me a while back to use pics of my bike for the shirts/plaques for this summers First Annual Brag'n' Drag 2006

These are some that I took yesterday. I thought I would show them to the group for some feed back and a poll if I firgure out how to do it.

These pics have neen reduced and not yet cleaned up in Photoshop. They apprear a little dark in these, but the details are there.

I am so jealous. If it really does become an annual event I will HAVE to make it one year.

Hi ya 81xsproject

one way to get good pics of bike

need a single color back ground totally different from any color in bike. (colored sheets?)

need probably about four/five lights to remove shadows

Resulting pic will be much easier to manipulate in Photoshop and you can eliminate back ground easily.

like I said, they have not been photoshoped yet. When I photoshop the selected one, I will remove the background, touch-up, and adjust the contrast and brightness of the pic. So, please JUST look at the basic, overall pic.

I see a lot of your '81's features that made it to the XJ11.

How 'bout some pics looking at 'er from about 30 to 45 degrees from the front (kinda' like your #3)?

The front is still kind of "under construction" while I do my custom dual head light mod. Plus, I don't know that that would be a very goo "representative" pic for XS11's as a whole.
