Semi-beaded Buell X1 Lightning. Bead embroidery on felt.10"wide x 6". Click to enlarge.
Here's the current progress of my beaded motorcycle. So far, I am using the same colour seed beads that I used for the wheels - a copper-lined transparent blue. I'm still trying to decide on colours for the rest of the bike. But more importantly, I am still trying to figure out how to put the bike together! I really like how the wheels look so far, but the front one is now detached from the bike! How will I attach it?? Once I figure that out, I think the rest of the beading will go rather quickly. Guess I'd better put on my thinking cap... :o
Besides that, I have been busy working on a couple other things including new Psychedelic 'Hubcap' earrings for my Etsy shop, as well as a new Squidoo lens. Please stop by and take the poll at the bottom of the lens. With your help, I will be able to decide what to bead next! Thank you for your interest! :D

Hubby thinks you should use Bright Orange for the tank and rear fender.
Orange would be cool! Thanks for that suggestion! :D
I was thinking red, but orange would be phenomenal!
Somehow you are the only person I know who would make Psychedelic 'Hubcap' earrings!!! REally!
Thanks for the comments! I was originally thinking red or yellow, but I think that orange would compliment these transparent blue beads better.
And, Mary, it's all how you market your work! LOL. I plan to make more 'hubcap' earrings in the future! :D
Can't wait to see this one finished.
