Let's gow !

pic #1- This is my rendering of Mark Georgette's Fiat. This street driven monster rolled & tumbled in the deep end after this 9 second run at Heathcote in 1986. A rear tyre was punctured by a thrown uni joint.
Cuts & bruises for Mr. Georgette- and the demise this legendary street rod.

pic #2- This is for my pal Lenny- Falcons & Gibsons for ever !

pic #3- These Chevys were only ever released in Australia.

[4tl8ford]

Some pretty serious work allready laid down - then it gets ended with a Redhead.

Happy 4th to me!

[GaryC.]

Thanks guys! I really like 49 Fords.
They were the first cars I can remember.
My father had one. I stood on the front seat
whenever we went somewhere. I can remember
the hole I wore in the upholstery. It's a good thing
he never had to hit the brakes hard
or I would have been a six year old projectile!
Thanks again!

[KreaturesCCaustin]

Man! It's not even Friday here yet and already we're off to a bangin' start! Killer work, everyone! Here's my contribution for this week. The first is the pencil sketch I showed you last week. Then the finished product.

So sweet dude!

I've been thinking about doing this for one of my bikes. I move around too much I think, but we may still give it a shot. Although there would be some editing done to remove the spots where I screw up and throw things:)

Truly amazing Dave. Thanks for that! After working an all nighter and 7/8ths over the past couple days it's refreshing to watch someone applying thier
craft. It keeps me going.

Thanks Jigger I really appreciate that! All the work around here pushes me to be better and better and to true new things...glad I could help somebody else out this FAS!

[Von Hartmann]

I just finished this last week, this is AA/fuel34fordpu's 48 austin gasser built in 1963. He just had it painted and he wanted me to letter it up for him. Here's the finished product. some of it I did in blue varigated gold leaf. The first painting on the black trunk lid I did a couple weeks before he painted the car, before we knew we were going to paint it. The paint opportunity was kinda a fluke, but the car looks so much better because of it.

man oh man! every single week I'm blown away!
I wanted to share a logo I finished up this week for a fellow HAMB(er)

Hot Bob's Speed and Custom:
http://car-n-art.com/hamb/hotbobs_bw.jpg

and color version:
http://car-n-art.com/hamb/hotbobs_color.jpg

I also did a quick retune of the ACME Speed Shop t-shirt design :

I needed to do this because when I took on the job, the 36 3 window was still in bare steel, no wheel covers, no headlights, no paint color. nothing. At least now it looks like a finished car!

Enjoy the 4th of July and try and keep all your digits!

I met David on the Power Tour a couple weeks ago, very cool dude. I love those rides, they were very inspiring to me. My buddy was taking pics of the car, and he's like "do you want me to lower it?" Um, sure, but it's only and inch of the ground now? lol...boom, down it goes:D The whole car/bike/trailer setup is so wicked.

[philo426]

It would be cool if the guy who did the B-17 painting painted a picture of this http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee54/philo426/2007_0827Spock0184-2.jpg

[Lil' Toot]

Well I finally showed some of my work a few weeks ago, so I'll keep the trend going with another first: my first go around with the Wacom. Inspired by the work of Mr. Norwell, Gary C, and many others, I decided to give a Wacom a try. I'm very familiar with doing vector work, so I'm not new to computer work, but I had always used a mouse, and of course you don't work in a natural painting style when doing vector work.

I admit to cheating a little, While I did the initial sketch on the Wacom, I did the primary outlines on the car, as well as the layout for the bezel and lettering in Vector (CorelDraw X3) and exported them over to Corel Painter, but all the color work was done in painter. I love working in layers!!! I have had Corel Photo Paint and Adobe Photo shop for years(which also have layering), but never really became very familar with them, probably because I didn't have the Wacom and it was too hard to do stuff in them with a mouse. And I have Adobe Illustrator, but I started on Corel Draw years ago first, and by the time I got Illustrator, I was too set in my ways with CorelDraw, I just never put alot of effort into learning it. Now that I'm in love with working digitally, I can't wait to fire up my other programs to see what they can do now too! I can't get over how closely the Wacom mimics real world drawing and painting. It's not exact, and there is a learning curve, but all in all, pretty close.

I welcome any input, tips and tricks, what ever. Like I said, this is my first shot, so don't be too cruel. ;) By the way, anybody wanting to get a Wacom, I'll give ya tip. Go to Amazon and search Wacom Refurbished. I was able to get a 17 x 19 for less than $400, which is the cost of just a 9x12 normally. They're factory backed by Wacom, and come with everything, so I can't see where it's a loosing deal. I know they just released they're new version, and it's too early to find a refurbished one of those, but this model has worked good for a long time for other artists, I figure it's plenty good to get my feet wet. Anyway, here's my first job, which was for a customer (might as well get paid while I'm learnin'). It's been emailed to the customer for approval, but they're out for the Holiday I think, so your seeing it before them!

Those are some great woody's .. thanks for posting them.

[Lil' Toot]

Sinclair, that's just killer. Reminds me of just about every Pinstriper I know!

Clysdale, terrific ink work. In my opinion, the most underestimated and difficult part of great illustration work. I always used a Rapidograph, but pens lack the great expressive quality of good brush work. My hat off to ya.

Ubermustang, great pencils sketches, I love great pencil work.

Everbody else, terrific work as always. Keep it up and keep em' coming!

[A32Flathead]

Those are some great woody's .. thanks for posting them.

[Dutch Courage]

Cool stuff guys! Honorary mentions so far for:

GaryC. - You should have warned that guy not to lean against the car like that!
übermustang - Really dig your 'design sketches' for Acme, Ruben; great style.
57 Corvette ~ Bob - Could not connect to your website... do you shoot your own photographs for your montages? Striking stuff.
KreaturesCCaustin - I love your stuff Dart.
DtroitDinosaur - Always great work from you James!
Von Hartmann - Awesome mural!
gabo - very cool Mosh.
Zombie - Would love to see more cartoonwork from you!
Phred the phiend - Great style you have!
Typ24 - Post your own work please.
Hidden - Very nice work as usual!
widewhitewalls - I like your Acme design a whole lot better now Keven!
Britt8M - Another bitchin' piece!
Acrochicken - Squindo rocks and so do you.
Lil' Toot - Now that you have the Wacom, you might try to brush-ink your line art and introduce some nice thick 'n thin line variations in that. It can even be done in vector; at least in Illustrator it can.
RunawayChair - cool to see that technical illustration from you; I used to do that kind of thing for my dayjob years ago. And thankx again for ordering my little book Keith!

[Ruben Duran]

Thanks for the responses on those sketches. Here's one last doodle, the John Mearns' '32 roadster, hot off the drawing board. Until next time. :cool:

Great show this week everybody. Typ24, I've never been a big fan of VW's, but I sure do like your work, you asked for advice, I'd say keep doing what your doing (and maybe slip a hot rod in once in a while for us ;)).

[Steve V]

I'll ditto that, awesome paint work, YOO !

[KreaturesCCaustin]

Yoo, your work is amazing the way it is. After 45 years of drawing and painting, I have absolutely no advice for you. You're there already.

[carguy88]

Just the usual horsin' around with the good 'ole #2 pencil.

Do any of you use photoshop? Which program ? What do you do with it? What i would like to do is work on pinstriping designs.

I do my photo re-touches with Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro. You can see three of them on the first page of this weeks art show. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=376491 Not sure that will be helpful for what you're looking to do.

[Flying Tiger]

ubermustang, amazing detail and incredible perspective.
zombie, fabulous job on the lighting and shockingly realistic.

I think Adobe Illustrator might work better than Photoshop.
