...But how the hell would I know.
Anyways, it´s a paintbox.

[mr. h]

where did you see this?

[G V Gordon]

Nice!

I have been jonesin' to post for a couple weeks but was either out of town or my camera was.

Red panel is for Cathy H here on the board. Hope you like it.

Also got a new welding hat so couldn't leave it alone.

My interpretaion of an eyeball.

And last but not least. Scribblings of a sixteen year old from the year 1965.

Yes my first car was a '51 shoebox.

Found these when cleaning out moms house. I'm 58 so as you can see I've had the sickness a loooong time.

[Hard Luck]

Some flash art I painted with One Shot.

[Ichoptop]

[kropduster]

[Jigger]

While I wait for photoshop to load my immages I'll take time to say hi.

Hi.

Funny stuff, Toyghoul. Flyin'P,... That's lookin' fine my friend.

[ynottayblock]

got nothing new done for this week. Last weeks bubbletop all finished up and rendered in green this time. Good start ladies and gents, lets keep this rolling.

[Buller]

Awesome start, great stuff. Here are some stripes on the trunklid of a Ford Anglia.

kick ass monsters toygoul.

[Gigantor]

This is a ROUGH 1st draft of a concept drawing that will hopefully end up on a HAMBer's Hot Rod eventually. This is bound to change A LOT before he gets what he's after, but I just wanted to post up the creative process so others can see what goes into it.

http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c51/Earthshaker5769/sorryofficer.jpg

[TBonez]

great start guys. Jigger , flyingpolock , toughoul, kool stuff. Buller once again that is a killer piece. Heres my contribution for the week. The flying eye is my take on the way Dutch's name has been sold so many times.

[customcory]

Another art show off to a good start! Kropduster, I really like it!, Ichoptop, That's going to be a nice hemi.,G V Gordon, I love old drawings!, Jigger, we are on a similar trip this week.
Well , this week I got inspired by a post hillbilly put on about his nightmare truck. His nightmare inspired drawing was so cool , it made me draw my version of his design. The more I did on it , the cooler it looked! What a trip! Hillbilly's post was "Nightmare Truck...sketch".
The other is the truck I had on last week only I cleaned it up some . I promised my good friend Bobby aka, Silent_Orchestra, I would put it on cleaned up, so here it is. And to all you stripers and painters and such, all I can say is , I'm jealous.:D

cast a single pinup girl in aluminum today just to test how i'm spruing and venting her as i worried about shrinkage issue and her extended right leg filling out. what i got was one of the most beautiful castings i have yet done. since i only have her partially bead blasted to remove the ceramic mold and only partially dressed up with the dremel to remove the sprue and vents, she's not ready for me to show off yet... but her face, fellas, her face looks amazing after lightly running it over the buffing wheel. look for an "official debut" in next week's art show.

thats about as bad as "to be continued". has anyone ever called you a tease? just joking of course, cant wait to see her in aluminum!

Sorry to hear about your father jively. I know I would be nothing if it weren't for my father (beyond the literal sense). My thoughts are with you and that is a bad ass poncho too.

[Steve 38]

I haven't posted on Friday Art Show for a while, so here goes. This is one I finished just recently, for myself, in between customer jobs. This is how I'm hoping my '38 Deluxe will look when its finished.

[joeybsyc]

TBonz, I love your striping style, especially the black T shirt... classic lines! The rest of you guys are great too!

[kustombuilder]

all great stuff!! Cory. i was diggin that nightmare truck in teh original post realy lovin what you've done to it. makes me want to start another project i'll never finish :rolleyes:.

YnotaYblock. LOVE that thing. i've had the original sketch as my background since you first posted it. i'm AMAZED at what you did to it since then. wish i knew how that photshop stuff worked. might have to learn...if i get time.

[38pickup]

I haven't posted in a while so I thought I would show off a render of a 40 merc I have been working on. Its not done, but here it is in the first stage...

Kookie, Kookie lend me your... car!
Lots of you will remember 77 Sunset Strip.
I think that it was the first TV show that actually
featured a hot rod. What a hot rod it was!
Norm Grabowski built it and it was every guys

[mortecai]

Wow I love the rocker panel treatment on the yeller coupe.

[guiseart]

O/T subject matter, I know... but I do hot rod stuff so little, I'd never get to show off.

Continue with your regularly scheduled fine programming, everything looks great so far... I love the art show!

[4t64rd]

Messing with photoshop, trying to find a believable metalflake look, the simple shape looked like a piece of Zodiac, so I put some stiches in it and cut out one of my stickers from a real pic and stuck it on top.

[SanDiegoJoe]

killer stuff from everyone!

Man, Greg! Remind me to give you a call when I d..., no...
that won't work....
Anyone would be proud to own some of your fine work. This piece is
very moving. I love it!

Himjively,... your family is in my prayers. My Dad's been gone almost 3 years but it feels like yesterday. I find myself needing his advice even more as life goes on... God bless ya, sir.

...and just a word to RockyJr ( I love that green color on the tank, by the way) and all you other stripers, envious is a word someone used to convey their thoughts on your work...
While I'm not envious, I am in awe of your work; the talent on this board knows no bounds!

Cheers to all!

[stan292]

Hey gang -

Just a quick note to say thanks to those of you who have contacted me and offered to submit artwork for the HAMB Drags Silent Auction. Looks like we may have to reserve a special section just for artwork this year.

If you haven't done so yet, there's still time to contribute. Some VERY cool stuff has shown up - or been pledged and is on the way - but we can use somemore.

If you can't make it to Joplin/Mokan, all it takes is to choose something you have on hand, package it up securely (don't worry about mounting or framing), and toss it in the mail. This is a great chance to show off your talent and help out the HAMB too.

If possible, it would really help to have your stuff by the 20th, or so, as I have lots of swag to get ready for display.

Once again, my address is:

Stan Weber
P.O. Box 81
Firth, NE 68358

Remember, all donors will get a souvenier pin and their names will go into the exclusive drawing (auction donors and helpers only) for an original "Big Sounds of the Drags" record album.

P.S. If you do send something, its really a nice touch to hand sign your art and maybe add a note saying "HAMB Drags 2007", etc. That helps make your art even more desireable.

Thanks in advance for your generosity to the HAMB. If you have any questions, just PM me.

Here's what I've been working on:

First is a sketch of what I might do to the old Falcon this winter

This is one of a set of stools we bought from Target for the home office. This one needed a new lever, and then I decided it needed flames too.

http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/279/stooluc3.th.jpg (http://img405.imageshack.us/my.php?image=stooluc3.jpg)

Last is a color study I did while on vacation recently. Kinda flame-like.

I should clarify , my first attempt at a panel. I have been pulling straight lines, and curves on a piece of glass for 4 months to get a feeling for it.
Thanks for the compliments. I have sooooo much more respect for the art now that I have tried it.

[1320Paul]

Zombiehut, nice carving too, that's one thing I've always wanted to try. From Calgary hey....I'm heading there for Sept 1-3rd for the tattoo/ art show. I can't wait to see the mountains again.
