Great work. I really like your stuff. I need to PM you some questions sometime. I went to graphic design school at ECU in the early 90's in Greenville. Im in Greensboro now.

I keep admiring your stuff and thought I should speak up finally. Great start to Friday!

[KScooter]

Very nice striping. Wish I could do that.

Been away for a while, but I managed to get the time this week to post. Here's a closeup of part of a design I did for a t-shirt with some old Ford...

http://i769.photobucket.com/albums/xx334/bomonsterart/bomonster-triumph-bobber-1.jpg

I like seeing bikes on the FAS for the same reason I like seeing them at cool car shows - they're bitchin. I saw this one at Gene Winfield's annual show and liked everything about it. Big tank, spokes, drum brakes, drag bars, short pipes. Since I couldn't ride it, I decided to draw it. Or scratch it in my case.

[Buick59]

Ok this may be on the frayed edge of being appropriate for the Art show, but in '09 at Bonneville I had the chance to walk around the hanger that housed the Enola Gay. Took tons of pictures of the rapidly decaying hanger. Here is a print I made today. Three separate photos.

[Spoggie]

^ That rocks Buick59. This tryptich works so well..

- The stair to the first act.. # 2 - hit the switch.. 3, thru the door to the big never before..
And hopefully, never again.
Really good piece.

The block and blower are plastic, the rest is real stuff. If you were at SEMA 2008 you may have seen it in person. I may also have this at the Atlanta World of Wheels show in two weeks. If you're in the area please come visit my booth, say hi and get yourself some hot rod art! Of course, this is for sale. If interested email me at gardinier@comcast.net

[pyrojoe667]

Holy burnout smoke! Everyone is killin' it this morning! Not sure why but heres mine-it'll make everyone else look that much better.

[Offset]

The pictures from the hanger are somehow just plain spooky, love it. Man what a talented group of artist here, hot rods, bikes, TRAINS (sorry my favorite subject), signs and panels. Must be nice to have the talent to do this. Well done.

Cool - Does it have the date showing on the inside?
My Dad made one in the early 40's for my Mother - Had the date in it - Can't remember the process.

Couple of my drawings, done with Copic markers, pencil and some fineliner.

Blues Brothers is in A3 size, so didn't fit my scanner, sorry for bad pic.

[paulatxntric]

yes please!

ok here goes
You need a hammer, a hard surface, drills, some reasonable sized round bar, needle file, wet and dry and chrome polish!!

place on it's edge on the hard surface...I'm using the back of a vice, tap the edge and turn slightly after each hit...do not thump it one as that will bend the coin out of shape..please note the glass of white wine is very important!!LOL

http://usera.ImageCave.com/paulatxntric/ring/DSC01073.jpg

you can see from this how the edge is getting wider!!

http://usera.ImageCave.com/paulatxntric/ring/DSC01081.jpg

the coin may get out of true as shown here...

http://usera.ImageCave.com/paulatxntric/ring/DSC01083.jpg
use round bar (or as I did a old, big ass masonary drill) to flatten it back..you may have to do this several times!!
when you have the width of the coin about right.....drill the centre out

http://usera.ImageCave.com/paulatxntric/ring/DSC01084.jpg

to make the ring bigger (diameter) place on the round bar, support on end and tap and turn the ring as before Yep I have used an old drill again!!

http://usera.imagecave.com/paulatxntric/ring/DSC01086.jpg

continue doing this till you get it to the right size...the inside of the ring is going to be sharp...it will cut you....if you push the ring on to your finger when its just a bit too small it's gona get stuck....trust me on this!!LOL

carefully file the sharp bits out the centre and give it a going over, inside and outside with wet and dry,
polish with chrome cleaner

http://usera.ImageCave.com/paulatxntric/ring/DSC01090.jpg

I have only made a couple and havn't yet managed to save the writing on the inside....but it is possible....there is also a second method that means you get the wording on the outside and the inside....gona give that a go and ill post the results!!

BUT give this ago and your better halfs will love you...trust me on that!!

[Older'n dirt]

My uncle made one for my Grandmother just after WW2. Used an Australian coin. I think he said they 'beat' it out with a spoon.

Thats cool, I am interested in seeing the updated versions as well!

[edweird]

ZOMBIE!!! Got another one for ya.

Edweird, forgive my saying so but, I think, your close up shot is the best angle on this rig...you are forgivin. i happen to think it was one badass hot rod. you know what opinions are like, don't you ?

[edweird]

I respect your opinion and can see what you appreciate about the truck. I love the old Studes; from the cab back, along with the licks, it looks great.
There are a lot of cool features , taken by themselves, that are cool, like the Chevy headlights and the fabricated grille, as well as the paint.
My biggest bug-a-boo is probably the hood scoop. Without it, the whole
package may flow a bit better...
Anyway, I can also appreciate the work that went into building the thing.its not a stude. its a dodge. i made the eyebrows over the headlights.so they're not chevy. and for what its worth, i never liked the scoop either.i sold it a couple of years ago .and he's happy.

[SniffnPaint]

My uncle made one for my Grandmother just after WW2. Used an Australian coin. I think he said they 'beat' it out with a spoon.


Yea! I one in high school study class with a newer copper/nickel quarter and smacked it with a spoon about a million times, then drilled it and polished it. You could read everything very clearly but by the time i peened over the letters and drilled it, it would only fit my pinkie. Im not a pinky ring guy.

I think to get good results you need a striking object that is fairly soft with a convex face (a spoon) and take your time especially with an old silver quarter because silver is much softer than the copper/nickel alloy quarters.

[Fowler5]

Good Friday Art Show this week. Haven't been here in a while, here's something new I put together recently.
A little grille work.

[realkustom51]

Great show everyone. Another shop floor scrap that caught my eye today. Measures about 2" x 3". Customcory stuff.

A sketch I did a few years ago of a '36 three window I bought just to get the rumble seat hinges for my '35 coupe. As I remember, I paid about $35 for it.

you can do it with a spoon no probs...but it does take a long time!!

Weeznerism?




1- I dig hot rods.
2- I dig fogging.
3- Into this pic was inserted a woman. Usually too hurried to do so.

Maybe Weez saw my stuff when he was a kid.;)

[sambo]

Bare metal...
is tough to render!
That would be hard! But your just the man to do it.Looks AWESOME!

I love your response! Keep the fogging AND the women! Lord knows he's not the first person to paint hot rods and women,and fogging, I did kind of think the same thing though,:o but I am also a Spoggie fan! By the way,is anyone else's kids pounding on quarters tonight? My 9 year old Wade thought that was awesome and he's got my railroad tie and a hammer in the living room,beatin' on a quarter!

[Spoggie]

Been wicked busy with the enamels of late. Dyin' to get back at some car drawings but I'm trying to get some panels done for Detroit and finished up a helmet for my buddy John Dunn. All the kandys and flakes were shot by my pal Jeremy Schirm. The art n striping is by me. Hope you guys dig em!

Todd, those are all badass! Can't wait for Autorama! Should be a blast.

[wheeler.t]

i made this as sort of an experiment to see how it would look. its for my father and i's garage. I cut the wood, cut the hole for the clock, and wrapped it in canvas, then did all the lettering, rat fink and glued the clock in tonight. i know the clock looks out of place, but i wasnt going to get a decent clock for an experiment, that clock was $1.
id LOVE some feedback and any questions about it, hell even if you want one for your shop we can work something out!

[45_70Sharps]

I'll tell you. The cars and the knowledge are what bring a guy to this site but the incredible artists on this site become nearly as much of an attration as the car stuff.

The ability to create great art with your imagination and materials that are availble to any of us is amazing.
I'm in awe of the tallent shown on this board all the time!!
