Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder

I'm sure that the owner of this truck thinks that this is the hottest paint job in the four state area.  Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  I, on the other hand, think this is a flaming mess (no pun intended).  While the purple and silver may be an okay color combination, the red, yellow and blue flames are just wrong.  That touch of florescent lime green on the blower is totally unnecessary.  I'm sure this sounded like a good idea at some point in time, and it may have even looked good on paper, if , in fact, anyone actually put this idea on paper.  But the final results just seem like a disconnected mess.  This is a graphics design failure of the first magnitude.

  1. You and I agree on this one. That's one ugly paint job. Perhaps there was alcohol involved.

    Have a terrific day. ☺

    1. Totally agree and how can you have a "quiet" day out without the whole neighbourhood knowing where you are?

  3. But Dude... its so EXTREME!!!!

    Epic fail, and this is from a proponent of custom paint. I like flames on nearly everything - I have a flame painted mailbox - but the flames are poorly shaped, bad colour choice[s] and dont flow with the graphics. The lime green was added undoubtedly to match the drivers plastic sunglasses...

  5. Agreed. For my taste, all of the colors are wrong and there are just too many things going on. Give me simple and shiny any day of the week.
