Sideburn x Ruby x Ornamental Conifer

I was slightly envious of Ben's Lagoon blue Castel (with it's special Sideburn branding on the goggle strap, that mine didn't have), until I collected mine back from Ornamental Conifer. Nico did a great asymmetrical job of the Ruby Castel full-face at a very reasonable price.
It's pink and pale blue, with black and 23ct gold leaf arrow, lightning flash and numbers. No lacquer so it will age, gracefully. If you want anything painting, get in touch with O.C. through his site. He does this for a living, but you get what you get given. He's not for steering, and he doesn't like doing the same on either side 'It's boring'.
Big thanks to Ruby and Ornamental Conifer. G

Gary, glad you've got one! What size is/was your Arai and what size is the Ruby Castel? I can't find one anywhere to try on. Cheers, Tom.
