Do you like?
My handlebar's stem start losing all it's paint. So i decided to make as new with a fresh repaint.
Since i'am really critic about my work i want your opinion.
Do you like it or i just ruined? Should i try again starting from zero?
Daaaamn! is too hard to use a brush for tiny details!
Starting from there:

I think it gives it a personalized homey feel to it. I used to paint model cards and metal figurines so I know the tiny details can be challenging.

I'am very undecided if remake it or leave it as it is.

First try made me smile, but not in a bad way. I kinda' like the second one and think it looks good with the colors on you bike.

first attempt:
really unsteady lines and some how paint bleed when it comes to the black. i suggest if you want to try something like this to use paint pens in the meantime until you make sure you have a steady hand.
second attempt:
muuuuch better, simple to do yet very effective visually.
