Default An idea for my tank.

I really like my new Switcback but I've got to "make it my own", you know I mean.
I'd like to add a little paint to it. I'm thinking 60s style scallops on the bags and maybe a little on the front fender. But I'd like to do something different on the tank.
I've always liked the early 60s tank emblem so I was thinking of using that instead of the stock one. But I'd like to add a pin up girl, so this is what I've come up with. Let me know what you think,

Looks like a pretty cool idea.
How are you going to put the pinup girl on there? Paint, sticker, something else?

I am planning on an almost identical thing! Actually looking for a local Airbrush artist to do it on my FXDC. Gonna have a Beauty on the front and rear fenders as well.

I love old school pin up girls! (not so much Old pinup girls )

I think it's a cool idea, and any of the three you posted would look great. The middle one kinda looks like she's wearing a Santa Claus outfit though.
