    Is it a homage to the sacrifices of someone /looks like WH soldier/ fighting in WWII? Or is it some PS game inspired theme? Or is it 'just a cool stuff with soldiers' kind of a theme?

    The original idea might be good, but how it turned out at the end is, well, a bit unsatisfactory.
    The way the German soldiers marching towards the Stalin, the use of massive hakenkreuz and portraits of two biggest mass murderers of 20th century - of Hitler and Stalin - makes me questioning the sanity of the owner and the painter too.
    After all it's the painter who should guide the patron through the overall paint scheme and make the scheme work with the bike. make it easy to read and use his or hers creative input to make it clear and the message easy to read.

    My point: Interesting? Perhaps. Good? Definitely not!

    In Cavan there was a great fire / Judge McCarthy was sent to inquire / It would be a shame / If the nuns were to blame / So it had to be caused by a wire.
