The Motorhead Jacket
31 12.09
The short and simple of this project is this: My good friend Johnny Ferrara commissioned me to paint him a jacket dedicated to his favorite band > Motorhead, and as Lemmy, the lead singer and iconic frontman of the band, describes them > Motorhead is Rock and Roll. I wanted to design Johnny a jacket that could live up to the reputation the band has forged in the minds of hard-core fans worldwide.
Here's the jacket in all it's glory and just like Motorhead's frontman Lemmy, it's one Bad Ass Mother%#@*$!

The Jacket is unbelievable. I bow down to the master of creativity! At this time I can only dream of what my Zeppelin jacket will look like…but one day…

Thanks Pamela!! Zeppelin has some great imagery to work with. One could only imagine what that jacket would look like……
This is absolutely amazing. I'm such a huge motörhead fan and you really have pulled of the style and attitude of the band perfectly. Out of curiousty, how much did you charge your friend?
Thanks for checking out the Jacket Dan. Coming from a true Motorhead fan it's quite a compliment. A jacket like this would cost anywhere between $500-$1000. because of all the extra work that went into this jacket it would be at the higher price range for what you see here..
Must be worth it, looking at the time and effort you must have put in. Unfortunately, it is simply an item I can only dream of, though I must thankyou for the inspiration. Perhaps one day, if I ever visit the states, and come with a suitcase full of cash, I can comission you myself.
