[nico32]

Man, I've been refreshing the site at work for like an hour waiting for the art show to start... looks to be be a good start so far.

[Jigger]

Me too nico...
How many Bics does it take to do a single drawing Todd? Mad skills buddy.
I've usually chewed the little plastic plug off the end of the pen and, unconsciously
syphoned the ink up and all over my face and brand new sport shirt before I get
anything that detailed done. Ya know,... back in "the day."

Outlaw is cool Gary and that '60 Chevy looks 100 times better thanks to those killer photos
flippin'chicken.

[FATT STRIPES]

[GaryC.]

Hey John! They are all cool but #6 is GREAT!
Love the light falling on the concrete below the overpass.

Todd: Two gems! That truck is a GAS... Forget I said that.
The Olds has a real fun quality to it. NICE!

I've been a golf course artist a long time, but I draw hot rods 'n such for my own amusement. . .

The "Drag B'Rods" name is my logotype for a series of hot rod /pin-up calendars I hope to publish very soon. If I can over come my fear of bureaucracy and the i.r.s...

Great show everyone!!!
Here's my latest pencil rendering. I first saw this 36 Cabriolet at the Pileup in '07. John Joyo of the Austin Speed Shop owns it now... The image is 24x15.5. Pencil on board. It was a blast and a challenge to draw. Here's a couple of in-progress shots and the finished drawing.

[CQQLSPENCER]

Here is mine for the week

[himjively]

Ed - I took a peek at your website
those pencil drawings are great, you got such good contrast going, they really stand out as much as a painting.
are they on regular cold press illustration board?
what do you spray on them to fix em? you must build up layers of fixative so you don't smear what you have worked on
My guess is over 8 hours in one drawing?

[ewt2]

Thanks! Yes cold press. No spray and I try very hard not to smear. Way over 8 hours...

[nikscarlett]

Dutch - Amazing layout!
General Gow - Those linocuts are rad as hell. The natural texture really make them stand out.

I haven't posted here in a while - but here's a piece i finished up this week:

Where do I get mine?!?!?!

[Lesabre]

Lesabre....wow...just incredible.....how big is the piece?

18 feet around the outside curve..basically lifesize.

[A32Flathead]

18 feet around the outside curve..basically lifesize.

Wow....awesome work, simply awesome.

[Big A]

Where do I get mine?!?!?!

Believe it or not I can't ship hot sauce over the Canada/US border... it's been declared "bio-terrorism". I wish I was making this up... wonderful world we live in. Maybe I'll bring a case or two to Dixie Fried, if I can smuggle it into the country. :rolleyes:

Thanks for the good words, boys.

In that case can you send some to Nancy Pelosi..pleeease... :D

Here are a couple of quickies from my goofing off with Sean Ornduff this morning

Good stuff John!

[Buzznut]

Badass ride!

I finally got around to doing some stuff that was HAMB-friendly (usually it's the normal sign shop stuff I do to pay the bills, which, while still fun, isn't always HAMBable).

Inspired by a tin I saw at Jeral Tidwell's site (http://www.humantree.com/) I dug around and found a couple of old AOL tins. Stripped 'em, painted 'em and rigged 'em to hold my trusty old 'Striping Brushes.

edit: I found the devil through a Google search. Barnett pointed out that it's the work of Jime Litwalk (http://www.jimelitwalk.com/index.html). Never knew who to credit. Now I do.
http://acmesignz.com/HAMB_stuff/striping_trays.jpg

An old ammo box a friend asked if I could do anything with. Honestly, I sat with this for w-a-a-y too long before I was inspired by a box I saw a fellow HAMBer had done which reminded me of a mailbox I had done back in the early 90's which, in turn, kicked this idea in the ass.
http://acmesignz.com/HAMB_stuff/grumpys-box.jpg

And finally, a toilet seat raffle item that was supposed to go to Brizio's for his annual Shop Party & Open Housse (this would have been my 12th) but some nasty flu knocked me down for a couple of weeks and I couldn't get it done. If you're ever at Roy's look for it hanging in the shop someplace.

Very cool Sage!

[jaransont3]

Had a little time at lunch today and took some inspiration from the other ballpoint pen and pencil sketches that have been posted and did a quick 'toon of my Custom project....

[ALLISON]

Dang, I've done a ton of stuff this week... but can't really show it yet?! So, I'll post this instead, it's something I think you will like "KUSTOM" being cars made into pick 'em ups. Lots of coolness this week.

Hey LeSabre,

never knew you were on this board. I have one of your flamed carp sculptures from a few years ago. Was a b-day present from my brother.

The caddy is absolutely incredible ! How much does something like that weigh??

Steve

[crook]

Lesabre- That's one of the coolest things I've ever seen!!!!!!!
Big A- Yeah, I'm a hot sauce fiend...if some were to make it to Atlanta call it sold.
Acrochicken-great stuff as usual!
Chazzin- Way cool stripes!
I'm trying to get some stuff ready for next weeks show, awesome show from everyone...Viva La F.A.S.!!!!!

[sinclair]

nikscarlett - Totally awesome!
Sage - that blower toilet seat is..... is..... sick, in a good way.

Philo,
I'll take credit fotr that contribution with gratitude and a small bite
if humility. Further, I will thank rtDen and the others for the heeps of compliments for what was a 3 minute doodle I drew for a member on
the H.A.M.B. model builders forum. (How's that for irony kiddo.)

Steve

It's two and a half tons. Most of it is bronze weight but theres a steel frame up underneath that weighs probably 7 or 8 hundred pounds. The frame keeps the bronze from moving around.

[stinsonart]

GREAT SHOW, FOLKS! New Tee for this year's Woodward Cruise.

[ALLISON]

Here's something fresh, part of it anyway. Lots of great stuff on here this week. Its part of a Tee for a show in a few weeks. Everyone have a great week end!!
Allison

[Steve V]

Absolutely fucking nuts, Lesabre!

I love it!

[Sage]

Dutch & sinclair...Thanks for the kind words.

red sled...Yeah, I know. But then again, more folks will probably see at Brizio's than in someone's garage that won it as a raffle prize.

I've done these for years now and I always try and "outdo" myself from the previous year. Sometimes just for my own satisfaction. This was Roy's 24th Annual Shop Party so the top of the lid has 2-4s on it. I'm probably the only one that would "get" it but then it was supposed to have some lettering on it to designate the 24th (just in case).

[Big A]

Am I the only one who can't see Sage's pics? I got nothing, not even a red x.

[vntodd]

LOL,
Osama Bin Roddin' ... and I never thought of Bush 41 as a Chevy guy, guess I was wrong.

here's sum drawrings

ewt, your stuff just flat out blows me away.
There's some amazing stuff on here each and every week, WOW!

I can't see 'em either.

[solid]

There is alot of talented cats on here. I love fridays. First time contribution (be easy on me). My basement wall. The wifey wasnt too impressed, but my drunk buddys thought it was a great idea.

[ToddJ]

Acrochicken- Love the shots of Ornduff's pickup! Awesome stuff for just goofing off John!

Sage! Wow! You are a super talented feller! Love all those pieces you posted. The toilet seats kill!!!

ALLISON- Your stuff rocks!

[hotrod40coupe]

Sombody brought a Code One magazine to work and while looking through it at lunch I found this. Thought you might enjoy it. That's an F-35A Lightning II.

[cattlick]

My second and a half attempt at pinstriping. Was bored with working flat on the glass and grabbed a jackstand and started doodle'ing

learned a few things in this past weak of pinstriping.
1.) work within your means. Simple is just fine for starting off BABY STEPS
2.) fresh paint is better than old
3.) a new brush is aight!

Critism welcomed.

Very nice picture, I built this truck.
The wife was driving it at the salt in 07.

Not really quite sure how this will end but here's the start.


It will be called "AsterRod".

[paulatxntric]

I had red X's the first time; next time I looked, the pictures showed up fine.

Bill - Very cool design; love your color choice; very effective!

Yep, yer right - my bad.

Found an old box in the garage with some airbrushed t-shirts I did a few years back.
Certainly not the caliber of most of the stuff on here, but kinda fun, so I thought I'd put my stuff out there.

Hey Sage,
I betcha I know who that fellow H.A.M.B.ER is… Nice job my friend!

Coop, you're on a whole other plane of existence…

[Sage]

Chad...Thank you for the kind words. Coming form you, I'll take that as a compliment. I just do what I can. It was fun (especially the "aging") and it's finally out of my way maybe that is the best part).

Eye Bone...If it wasn't you could you please remind us all? There are days when my memory isn't worth the brain it's imprinted on. I am glad that I got to play along for once.

Thanks, fellas.
