FRIDAY ART SHOW...nearly friday in the uk

[surf monkey]

it`s nearly friday over here and i dont remember ever starting an art show...so....
been messing around with the digital art thing over the last week or so...pretty certain i aint doing it the correct way....these two pieces are done totally freehand using the mouse.......mask tool..paintbrush and airbrush ...like i said it`s probably not the correct way but they turned out kinda ok
http://www.muchos.co.uk/members/surfmonkey/32coop1.jpg

the second one is a rendition of the brizio rpu that was featured in a past edition of rodders journal

[k-member]

Damn, it keeps getting earlier and earlier, here's some flames I airbrushed on the side of a bobbed A bone, then I photoCHOPed it ...

[k-member]

Close-up, done with a Badger and a shitty piece of card board, just for fun.

[Fat Hack]

I worked up this tribute to my favorite HAMB Rod...took one of the photos I shot of it last summer and reworked it a bit using a couple different programs to get the effect.

I thought of building a copy one day, but it'd never be right, there's only ever gonna be ONE 'El Blanco'!

[Unkl Ian]

Fat Hack: Talk to your Bank Manager before it's too late.There is still hope.

[hankcash]

Well, most of you schleps probably saw these on my Round-up thread, but I thought that I'd post them here also...
I took several, but these were my favorites.
First version is done in an early 60's technicolor postcard style...

[hankcash]

version 2 is straight up old school style...

HC

[Fat Hack]

Naw...I ain't got a bank, and Thom let me know that he got an offer from a guy on the East Coast...I woulda paid TWICE that much if I coulda...but the timing just sucks!

I got the pics, and I got the memory...some guys never get THAT close to their Dream http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

[bradberry00]

Here is the piece I posted last week, but basically finished....

We had to make up a recipe for illustration class....don't really like how it turned out but oh well.....

[Bugman]

Art in progress...sorta
Playing around with my english wheel, and some old convenience store shelves donated to school.
It's going on my shop's engine test stand.

[kustombuilder]

damn, it's only thursday afternoon here, but i'll contribute. here is the grill insert i gave s sneak peak of a few weeks back. i finaly did some grinding on it and it is lookin good. i will straighten the couple dents in the shell when i get a minute then paint it some glossy color (maybe) and have one of my good HAMB buddies stripe it for me. gonna paint the insert silver and i have a neat idea for mounting the insert into the shell (the 1/4-20 bolts are temporary).

It's okay to tell a girl she has nice ankles but beware of complimenting her too highly!

[kustomkoupe]

heres a 38 deluxe? hood side i painted and then sanded through...i donlt like this sort of fake old thing but i thought it would be cool on a hood side to hang in the basement...its was the inspiration for my friend to say...why don't you start a car club and call it the piketown rockets

[Johnny Ace]

Kojack...
Buick59...
It's always a real treat to see your photography!
Too much ain't enough....

[BARNETT]

Here's a couple of pieces I finished about 10 minutes ago. I thought the skull piece would be kinda fun to try with mostly shades of gray. MDO and One-Shot....

[kustomkoupe]

heres a bike frame i did all with a brush...1-shot...

[kustomkoupe]

this is a mirror i did for a lowrider bike shop...cap city lowriders..the flame fades are etched and so are the center of the letters..the red is just 1-shot

[kustomkoupe]

heres 3 toilet seats i did

[Johnny Ace]

K/Koupe...very nice work! It's gonna be good to see your work every week on the show...

[kustomkoupe]

[kustomkoupe]

#2

[kustomkoupe]

thanks, i didnlt realize this was every week..maybe i shoulda saved some...im working on my car almost all day every day trying to get it done by summer...haven't been painting much lately...we'll see though..maybe i'll get inspired...

[TINGLER]

Kustomkoupe,
dang, that last toilet seat is super!
Those lines are wicked.

Thanks everyone for the compliments on the tiki.
Ratster, my man, .....whens your birthday again???? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Johnny and Barnett, you guys rock.....(of course!)

Some thoughts on the photography:
You fellas already know this of course, but I was just meditating on how IMPORTANT your work is. You guys are recording the current era for all future generations to enjoy. Thats pretty impressive!

I know this revelation is elementary, but I think looking at your all's work in that light REALLY enhances the experience for me. I mean AWSOME photographs come across this screen EVERY Friday and I haven't really commented on them much, but I just wanted to let you all know how important your work is. Not to mention, beautiful, stirring, and SWEEEET.

Keep up the great work!!!!

[A32Flathead]

Well, seeing as how it seems to be scrap cars this week...here's a couple from my 'secret junk yard in the mountains'

[TINGLER]

Hey Johnny,
COOL man! I wasn't worried about the shirt.....I know how it gets sometimes. No apologies necessary.....

You're in the show! COOL! This show is going to kick all sorts of ass.
I'll PM you some of the particulars and stuff, but its just all about MONSTER shirts and MONSTER art. I'm sure you can probably handle something like that. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

[saltflataddict]

Its all amazing, Road Apple is that all your McPhail stuff. His art is incredible, jaw dropping, drool over incredible. JohhnyAce very nice on that Revell years Fink..I just barely checked out your web site, way cool. I had no idea your an old school skater/artist. I love the stuff you did back then, I might even still have some of those Thrashers. and Mike you know I love you photos..Friday art is always the best topic on the Hamb..

[Johnny Ace]

Thanks Hooligan...yeah,I've been around for years.....the problem with those years is that things went by too fast and I didn't think that taking photos or keeping copies of my work would ever be needed....I miss a certain black '59 Impala lowrider with blood red TnR interior....the '64 Triumph TR4 I was gonna turn into who-knows-what, etc etc....I think I have less than a dozen pics from before 95...

[Kojack]

Awesome work everyone... damn, some cool shit here! I don't think I've seen your work before, Drive On... awesome stuff! Love the effects you've used...

[Drive on]

Thanks. I need to post work more often.

[Buick59]

Hey Johnny Ace you gonna be in Manti Utah this weekend at Roth's house? If So I'll see ya tomorrow.

Mike

[Johnny Ace]

Buick59...Man,I wish....too many obstacles this year.
Should be a good time,though....Looking forward to your shots!

[saltflataddict]

JohnnyAce - aint that the truth though. I wish I would have thought ahead myself and kept stuff, ie - all my old skateboards.. Shit I owned a skate shop at age 16 in El Paso, and didnt keep a thing to remember it by. Except a pic of a certain Zorlac rider taking a bong load in my cousins living room after a demo. But I would have a collection of old skate decks had I kept them to fill every wall in my house. Well back on topic - very cool doctered up to look old pics. I love that..

[G V Gordon]

Little late this week but here is one I did last night.
Great work this Friday everyone!

[Ichoptop]

did this last night, it is my 1st tattoo from start to finish in one sitting, took 2 1/2 hours and is about 8 inches long.

[Ichoptop]

work of art? source of transportation....whatever. Quick project I built a few weeks back.

[Johnny Ace]

Nice work all the way around, ICT!
FIRST tattoo? Wow!

[kritz]

ok, is it just me or is the friday art show just not quite the same without some posts by our friend SAFARIKNUT????
where is ray...he's always got goodies for us to look at come friday.

nice work everyone...keep up the great work.

[kustomkoupe]

is that bike hard to ride...i just striped one of those things and with the tall bars it was hard to go up hill...seemed to put alot of stress on the stem area..maybe you live where its more flat then i do...

as for my car being done for the jalopy showdown...thats why im trying to do but money isn;t looking so hot for a radiator and a few other necissities

thanks to everyone who took a look at my work and enjoyed it

[13horrorshow13]

this is an older piece I did for moldys rat fink party.
its about 3 feet tall with a candy blue base...from someones front yard! but dont tell anyone!

[Hellfish]

I don't know if you want to call it art, but here are some pics I took a few years ago while driving my '67 Volvo 122s from San Diego to Chicago.

My brother had the generator go out on his old Volvo in Kingman and the local auto parts and breakfast cafe had just what he needed and installed it for him too. Don''t know if that'd be tha case now, bcause I just remembered it was 20 years ago... Damn, time is rushing by and I gotta go get some A-arm bushings....

[jdubbya]

Hey Ichop, kick-ass bike, the first pic is of my old bike, I sold it a couple of weeks ago. Dyno bike, big apes, etc.

[jdubbya]

I sold that bike, so I could get me one of deez. Electra-Rat Fink. I will put taller bars and some custom touches on it, but I just got it thursday, so it will come in time. -Joe

[Gr8ballsofir]

Kingman hasn't changed a bit...
Hellfish, did you stay in the Wigwam? The owner is pretty cool and all those cares belong to his family and they all run! It's a cheap place to stay.

[lostparts]

yeah, i love fridays!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[robber grin]

I doodle'd this one up for y'all...

[Hellfish]

HankCash, I DID break down on one of those roads! The real desolate one was the road that wound through the Joshua Tree Natl Forest. I locked my keys in the car. After a brief panic I remembered I had spares in my pocket! Then the brakes seized up in Phoenix... but I knew someone in town. It took them 2 days to find and install the new MC. Then the battery died in Albuquerque... where I knew someone. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif I think I used up all my good luck when I was younger!
and Yes, I did stay in the Wigwam Motel. That place was awesome! I called ahaed and told them when I would get there. They said "oh, we'll be gone by then, but we'll leave a key for you under the mat"! Great people!

I sure love these friday art stuff, gotta buy a new sword and start practise again...

Hellfish, I've stayed at the motel that's just out of the last pic. The cafe next to where you parked has a killer green chile breakfast burrito.

Is that one for sale? skull and eyeball.

[Capt. Cal]

for all you ford purists out there hehe. i painted that over the emblem on my truck.

[BARNETT]

Let's see if I can post this pic for Nailhead60. It's a tank for a mini chopper, I believe. Some mighty fine One-Shot action!

[Unkl Ian]

Now THAT is spectacular.

[BARNETT]

Unkl...Ron is the only DEADBEAT artist-type that wasn't in Detroit for the AutoRama...he had previous commitments with his daughter for that weekend. He needs to post his work here more often!

[Unkl Ian]

If he's not going to MCPhail's gig in June,with the rest of the Deadbeats,send him to Billetproof.

[BARNETT]

He's lives in Kansas...he'll be at McPhails! Not all of the Detroit DEADBEATS will be leaving the state...but probably all of the One-Shot guys. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif I wish it wasn't on the same weekend, but I told Dennis, months ago, that I would go to Kansas this year. Too much to do, too little time! Ron will be up there for the Broken Dream Kruise, though!

[A32Flathead]

OOp's, forgot this one.....Pontiac at Bakersfield last year...

[hamilton]

man, fantastic show ( as usual...) !

I haven't posted in a while, was busy preppin' for the RoundUp (great friggin' show!)

...I'm back baby! Just put the final touches on this doozie to go up for sale in Big Mark's Barbersville....

rock on this weekend....

[67Imp.Wagon]

I'm not to good on drawing so I'm posting a pic my 5 year old drew at the Roundup after meeting Von Franco.

I did'nt even see him draw it. Its got all the elements. Crazy hair,tounge out,big shifter,wheels off the ground.

[robber grin]

I really like dragon art.

VERY COOL!
