Who painted my fuel tank?

I was wondering if any of you had their tank painted by the same person as mine. After reading some posts elsewhere, it seems that the tanks are usually signed with a name and not just initials as I've got. Unless I'm looking at it upside down and it's actually a Thai name!

My blue/white SE tank was striped by "un". I don't know in which country this was done, but I have decided to believe that it is the work of "Ursula Neville".

My blue/white 06 is signed by Neil. I think that is really cool, but makes me extra careful with the take because a replacement would likely be from taiwan or something.

Maybe mine's "Neil".

I figured Nail because that sounds more Asian, although I'm an '06.

I'll have to look again, now.
