Armentor Art Works: The Custom Art Process

The Custom Art Process
Good Communication Is The Key To Accomplishing Your Vision

I think a well informed customer is the best customer, and that reflects on the creative process that we use at Armentor Art Works. From design to the final polish we will keep in constant contact with you. I know how nerve racking it can be to send your prize position out of town to have work done. That is why the Net has made it possible to see every step as it is taken. It’s the next best thing to being in the shop while we are painting the parts. It helps me a lot as well. If there are design elements that are not going the way we planned or a change is needed to make your dream the perfect reality, the progress updates allows us to make the change before final clear. So lets take a look at a small job to see how the process works.

Mike's Harley Davidson Sportser
Mike sent me an e-mail saying that he needed a bit of flash on his Sporster. He had put a lot of extras on the bike and thought the paint needed a little kick. He already had a design in mind, so once Mike told me his vision, I drew up a sketch for him.

I made the modifications in Photoshop so the changes took no time at all and were all included in the small art deposit. Small changes are part of the deal.

Next, we are ready for a full study of the art (see image at right). When I e-mailed this to Mike he liked it, so off to paint we go. Only the highest quality paints and materials are used.

Every step of this process is documented. I also have a special website just for progress pictures so I can keep you well informed without crashing your computer.

Here is a progress picture before the detail on the skull is done.

After detail and before clear.

The final picture after polish and ready to ship.

Then Mike sent me pictures of the parts on the bike. We both think it looks great!

Even though he could have, Mike got the custom look without spending a bundle.

As an added bonus, a signed high-quality print of the project design was sent to Mike at no extra charge. Now he can frame it and hang it on his wall, so even when he can't ride he can enjoy his one-of-a-kind custom paint project!

I encourage you to look at your ride and see what you would like to make it one-of-a-kind.
If you want to see what your vision might look like, a small art deposit can get your vision into the real world in no time. Even if you decide not to have me do the airbrush work or just want to wait, a high-quality print of your art will be sent to you as part of the art design package.

Thanks,
