Dang dude, from a fellow young pinstripper, you have a great start at business of your own, just what i have. Its better to start young than never start at all. Keep laying lines,( go to the march meet and take a tool box full of your paint ready to go, im sure you lay line on a hot rod in no time)...ohh yeah welcome to the hamb, from one young guy to another.
God bless you

I've seen alot of new guys laying lines over the last few years, some good, some not so good. I dabble a bit myself but really only do the old school tip and tail work. I'm not so handy with the long straightys... That is some of the best stuff I've seen lately. 15? Thats impressiv, your going to well for a long time. Someone said it already I think, if you want to do some rods just show up at show with your stuff. Once you start striping a car at a show they'll be lining up for you.
Good stuff buddy, I dig the airbrush work on the board also.

Just came across this thread. Awesome work. May have a car to letter later this summer.
Come to the next Fresno Coffee & Donuts meet ( dunno if it's scheduled yet ) and bring your box. Go eveywhere with your brushes. You'll be turning people away with work like that.

Welcome to the HAMB. I admire your skill. I just started learning the art of pinstriping. It sure is addicting.
I'm 32, in hindsight, I wish I started laying lines when I was 15. Might not have gotten into so much trouble. ;)
