Yamaha 3 Tuning Forks Bicycle Head Badge

I was contacted by a client in Australia to make this badge.  I am pleased with the way it came out.  The outer softness contrasts the hard lines of the inside.  The way the points intrude into the outer circle, and the over all design.  It also feels really nice when you pick it up, […] Continue reading
