Re: New WIP
So spoked wheels can suck my everlovin dick. Decided that the spokes are too difficult to do at the same time as everything else... So I'm drawing it like there are no spokes at all. Unfortunately putting lighter colors over the top of darker colors with colored pencil is near impossible. So I'm going to add the spokes with acrylic paint after-the-fact. Of course I probably should have done some tests on that before I decided to do that as I have NO idea if acrylic paint will stick to the colored pencils which are oil based.

Re: New WIP
I like your work.
Sometimes wish I had that talent, but then realize I already don't have enough time to use it.
Still want it though. :(
The second post clears up a few things. Looking at the first one I had trouble sorting out some perspective issues.
I hear you about spokes. Though I can't sketch or draw anywhere near you, I have strung up spoked wheels. There is a way to systematically (or, in my world, programmatically) lay out spokes. It'd be dead simple to map out the points and draw the spoke segments in a 3D modeler. Then you could tilt/shift/scale to give yourself a template to trace or otherwise transfer.
You'd need to know a little bit about how Harley wheels are layed out - hole placements, staggering on the rims, the cross pattern (1-cross, 2-cross, 3-cross, etc - I know they're not radial, and I doubt it's a 4-cross) - but it's not like the Harley community is small and quiet.
Now that I think about it, I'd be surprised is someone hadn't already modeled it and posted the file somewhere.

Re: New WIP
DONE!!!! I never want to see another panhead EVAR.
Decided to just put my Bob Ross Afrohat on and start throwing happy little trees rather haphazardly in a somewhat abstract manner at the page and hope it worked. Mixing mediums (pencil and marker) is easy enough to screw shit up (those markers disolve the colored pencils IMMEDIATELY) but mixing styles is a good way to make it look like shit too... But I can't complain TOO much about how it turned out.
Gotta frame it and deliver it to the bio-dad who actually owns one of these devil bikes.
