Hello all, if you remember, I'm the idiot with the Mad max sleeve, I also have some Matrix stuff on my other arm now if anyone wants to see it.
Anyway, I digress. The other day whilst driving on the A42 in North West Leicestershire (UK), I nearly crashed when I saw this truck so had to get a picture. I have since spoken to someone who knows the owner who is local and apparently the Lord Humungus is on the bonnet. will try to get more pictures for you all if you like. In the flesh the quality of the artwork is very good. Not sure if belongs in the replica cars bit or not...

That looks absolutely awesome It's almost like a real photo. Would also very much like to see the humungus on the front.
And as far as I can see it is not a Mercedes Sprinter but an Iveco (turbo) Daily. Like this one.
"UNDERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" is how far you take the fence with you.
That van looks good and I would like to see the artwork on the bonnet. I remember your Mad Max sleeve. The artist did a great job and I imagine your Matrix sleeve must look good if it's the same artist.
I guess the owner of the van is called Mark, judging by the personalized number plate.
I now have bonnet pictures from odd angles when it was painted. Trust me, the quality is absolutely amazing. I thought my tattoos were good but this is the next level. I'm hoping to see the van in person and take some better shots. When you all see it, you will want your car airbrushed.
Will keep you informed.....
Here are the pictures when it was first painted. It was painted by ' A woman's hand m'lord.' (bit of Blackadder for you there, don't know if you lot down under have heard of it though)
That's looks awesome. An extremely good paintwork.
