One that's ready for color:

[Danimal]

Dang, Jigger. I can't even tell what day it is so you've now rooted me solidly in Thursday. I've got to get home and get some shots of my boys' work.

[SinisterCustom]

Looks like that chick ain't wearin' a bra!?!?! hahaha.....nice stuff as usual Jigger!

Some stripes from Mother's Day.....mom's PT.

Dang, Jigger. I can't even tell what day it is so you've now rooted me solidly in Thursday. I've got to get home and get some shots of my boys' work.

That happened to me the other day. I've been out of work a while and the days began to meld together. It was like being thrown into deep water at night. Very disorienting.

[Clysdale]

Just got these candles cast from my original sculpt that I made for my shifter knobs...I figure after this it's needlepoint and scrapbooking!

[SinisterCustom]

That's a way cool candle man......my wife would go crazy for these.....scented????

[Del Swanson]

Cool sketches Jigger! My brother bought a 1964 Australian army issue land rover (R hand drive) when he was visiting friends down under. He had it shipped to him this past winter. He started on the rebuild, but got called back to Iraq. I can't wait to see it running again.

[THE CHIEF]

damn that candle is tits

[Zumo]

A logo I did this weekend for a fellow HAMBr

[Clysdale]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v133/chariots/misc%20net%20pix/croSMALL.jpg

[Jigger]

Gee that's nice. I love the cycle fenders. Would love to see the bonnet cover, too, like in your concept.

[G V Gordon]

Been awhile since I posted on the show, but smeared a little paint on a friends pit cruiser bike.

Not sure if pinewood derby cars are art but this is my entry for an up coming local show. Going for a lakes roadster look, paint is wet in this pic. I will post finished picture next week.

[hotrodladycrusr]

...... and scrapbooking!



I'm not into needlepoint BUT I'll be your scrapbook buddy. We could share ideas and stuff. :D

Enjoying the artshow guys, thanks.

[Gee]

Yeah, my wife would like this candle. Any marketing plans?

My contribution this week;

[lrseclipse]

Here is a triptic i did for one of my art shows. I took a photo of this car at the Roundup.

"Patina" - (3) 30" x 15" - oil and acrylic on canvas

[Clysdale]

thanks guys...candles are now done...the first run of 10 are finished and ready to roll...25 bucks each...and you can get them online here (http://www.davidlozeau.com/Image.asp?ImageID=403263&apid=1&gpid=1&ipid=1&AKey=D3TYDH6V)....Just click the little [i] box above the skull for the paypal link....

I also will have resin shift knobs of the same design done soon also.

[widewhitewalls]

Great looking start to a show here fellas!

I was contracted for a product packaging design by Ms. Metal (Amy) She produces metal-flake shift knobs in various colors and wanted to produce a single cool yet functional label for a 1 pint can to place these in. It had to be simple in color restrictions to keep the cost down, but simple doesn't mean plain or boring right?

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e249/keven_carter/ms-metal/ms-metal-can.jpg

Here it is flattened out:

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e249/keven_carter/ms-metal/ms-metal-can2.jpg

Originally it was going to be more distressed and in full color so I played with more textures in the actual word "metal-flake". The end product didn't have it in there, but I still wanted to show it off since I did the work:

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e249/keven_carter/ms-metal/ms-metal-can3.jpg

More next week.

[tikiguy]

Hey Coop, love the new painting are there going to be any other elements or just the classic smokin devil? Also, are the pickguards only for Telescasters or are there going to be others for Strats and when will they be available? Thx, Tiki

[COOP666]

Yeah, this is just the underpainting, the final piece will be many more layers of stuff.

We will be doing lotsa different guitars, these are just the first to get prototyped. I forgot to photograph the precision bass pickguards...

[tikiguy]

Rock on man, I've got a white Strat that one of those will look great on. How soon will they be available ?

Here's some of the latest. I just finished the West Coast Customs Cruisin shirt for this years Paso/Santa Maria show. We wanted to carry over last years theme but update it. Will be for sale at the show. I'm also including one of the two van pieces I did for the California Screamin show last weekend.

Enjoy!

So funny,
I just caught a mistake from posting the Santa Maria art.

Please note: The scoops will NOT be INSIDE the car on the final version. :)
Good thing I caught that! Better late than never. Also, these will be for sale at the "Midnight Impressions booth near the gate. Tell them Jason sent ya!

[fiat128]

:eek: Damn! This is shaping up to be one of the best artshows, LRSECLIPE - very cool!, Jigger - like the landrovers, Nice shot Rayn, I'll frame it and call it art.

My 12 year old kid has taken an interest in playing guitar (I think he's gonna turn out OK, the first thing he learned to play was Ironman and Smoke on the Water). If I get him one, I bet I know what it's gonna look like

Killer bike! Nice video, too - especially the "crotch cam" shots.

[stinsonart]

Man, that Kustomrama Magazine is really cool! The photography has a painterly look to it that is reminiscent of (showing my age here) the old Davy Crockett bubblegum cards from the '50s. It brings back some great memories for me. How do you do that? Too cool!!

And the bike...! Damn! A true work of art from an engineering as well as aesthetic point of view! Sensational! Many thanks for you both sharing your talent!

Bill

[Choptop]

New daily driver?

nah, just a press fleet car. Lots of fun, but I couldnt put $40k into a car that would go down in value.

[Jokem59]

Great show everyone! No artwork this week from me but here are few photos from a car show in Camarillo a couple of weekends ago.

[crook]

Dang, that bike is killin' me.

[Peter Pan of Chicago]

Another stellar "Art Show", fellas!

[GaryC.]

Just a few
photo conversions based on the
old black and white films found on
today's Jalopy Journal lead page.

[Mongo]

That bike is so cool !

[fortypickup]

That bike is a work of art! To Cool!

Nice work all!

Heres one that is a series on the Art Challenge. "Preparing for the Chop"

a) somethings come up and i cant make it to billetproof
b) im not even that good at stripin'
...but can you mail it to me?? :)

[Jigger]

Here's one more for the road. This is the start of something I'm doing for a HAMB artist who did something nice for me. He still hasn't sent the picture to me so I still haven't finished his. Something like that...

http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m45/jigger_01/ZOMBIEDODGE-1A.jpg

Look familiar to anyone??? The car wasn't finished in my reference photos but it is a Dodge. I took liberties with the side trim.

Thank you!! That is exactly the look I'm trying get on my pictures :) How I do it is a trade secret :)

[A32Flathead]

nah, just a press fleet car. Lots of fun, but I couldnt put $40k into a car that would go down in value.

Ahhhh...No Burnout Pics? ;)

[Del Swanson]

Great show this week! Anybody ever thought about an orininal artwork swap? even if it was just sketches or pencil work, it would be cool! sump'n to think about.
