Finally on the home stretch! Detail on the tires and wheels have to be very exact. I once had to paint a wheel three time until I got it right! Luckily, I got this rear wheel right the first time. Once I got the elipse right for the wheel and the hub, I started with blocking all the negative spaces.
Painting an orange wheel with many spokes was a challenge! As I work I also check the accuracy of the image by viewing the painting in a mirror. By the look of things, this one went through without a hitch! Now on to the much smaller front wheel and and a few more details. Watch for the checkered flag coming up soon!
