an introduction


mini ACU320i Signature

Hi! everyone. Just to say 'Hello' to the world. I'm ACU from Singapore.


For my 1st post, I like to share with everyone a MINI-ed signature that I recently started to made out of boredom. It my BMW E90 3-Series Model 320i which I bought about a year ago. It is used for BMW-SG Forum that I came to know after purchasing the car and had been actively participate lately. Its always fun to customized and personalize unique signature to differentiate myself with other forum user on the post in the forum.

Some business ideas had been spinning in my head since I started creating these MINI-ed art. Currently I made it into wallpaper for my desktop and planning to produce it into stickers and t-shirt. What do you guys think? Would someone crazy enough to want to wear my art on them?
