friday art showtime

[wideglide74]

I painted this 8x8 Panton piece about a year ago. I painted it intending to hang it as public art at an abandoned inner city gas station. When it was completed I really liked it and found it complimentary to my space so I kept it. Fast forward a year and I decided to give up the bachelor lifestyle and pack up the mod pod. Last sunday nite my Girl and I packed it into a 1 ton cube van and headed out into the dark to hang it on an abandoned store not far from home. It defienatly brightened up the decrepit old store front. As we where hanging it in the middle of the nigh a cop pulled up and slowly turned the corner, we thought we where finished but he never came back...

[wideglide74]

New home...

[hamilton]

that's really cool wideglide! great idea....here's another cutout that just dried up this morning...let's see more!

[REBEL]

I’m 48% Airhead, 1% Pinhead and 51% still learning! Would little “Dickey the Devil” be O.K. to offer to the up coming Charity auction during the Detroit Autorama? http://rebel-air.net/db5/00490/rebel-air.net/_uimages/dickpannel.jpg http://rebel-air.net/db5/00490/rebel-air.net/_uimages/dicknbrush.jpg

[kustombuilder]

i'd hoped to have this DONE by today but it did'nt work out. it's an insert for an old model A grill shell i had hangin on the wall. someone had hacked the sides of the shell at the bottom at some point so i sectioned it 3" to fix it. this will go inside. then i'm afraid it will go on Ebay cause i need the money http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif. sucks cause i'm really liking it and it's ALOT of work. it'd be great just for hangin on the wall, or some greaser might want to put it on his "Rat Rod".

anyway, enjoy my underconstruction artwork....

[Dan]

Dont want to insult you artists by calling this art cause all it is is just cutting and pasting from other sources. Awhile ago the kids designed the Pair-A-Dice Speed Shop logo and I think it turned out pretty cool. Here is a new effort of ours, the Black Jack logo. I wanna post it here not so much as art but so I can get some advise from the artists here as to how to improve it. Thanks-

[Jeff Norwell]

Dan...here are my 2 cents (and keep that in mind)
Keep the fonts in the same likness and maybe a little pinstriping around the spade.Also you could play with the negitive and positive space a wee bit more.

[Buick59]

Her is a pickshure I done took while In arizona last month. (it compressed fer the web)

[Buick59]

Now heres a pickshure of what Utard looks like. Why the hell Am I still here?

[G V Gordon]

Morning everyone, You guys get up early.
First another practice panel. Broke down and ordered some One Shot yesterday so I can quit messing around with hardware paint. The second pic is a tank I did about 1985 or so that I just found in an old box.

[ratster]

Another canvas painting. I borrowed the monster, it reminded me of my boy. Him and his wagon.

[BARNETT]

Oh-boy-oh-boy! Cool stuff guys and gal! Hami I dig the way everything has a kinda "beat-down" look in that piece. Kustomscaraudio, that is really cool and something different for the Art Show.

[Dan]

Holy shit brush that is cool! Would you be able to switch the black to white for me and do you mind if I use what you have done to it (we are making T-Shirts and stuff) Thats neat!

[ratster]

Oh yeah AWESOME work guys and Miss Cherry!

Emp, thanks again for the nice note. Buick, I really like that color shot. why's UT so beautiful? why ain't there no coffee or smokes there?

Blush and Jeelm, thanks for posting those, now I know what all the fuss is about. lovely. curious about whatchoo got for pencils, Jeff.

here's a piece from my day job, should be in today's Wall St. Journal. note the old Ford key.

[D Picasso]

and to keep it car-related here's an old one, for my evil porn-writer friend, the always-in-trouble nudenik Eva Morris.

[BARNETT]

F.A...is that painted ON the car trunk?! Looks great, regardless.

[D Picasso]

Dan'l- yes, indeed, on her '57 DeSoto, while Ms. Morris was flashing her dinners and other and yelping, 'make 'em bigger, like these.'

she's a scream.

[kustombuilder]

DAMN BRUSH!! i'm always impressed, and a NAILHEAD! makes me feel like you drew it just for me http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif...

DAN, i'd leave it just like BRUSH did it. too cool. Hami, i love these cutouts you keep doin and TIKIRANCH, another STELAR shift knob. great job everyone. i like em all....

[whodaky]

It never cease to amaze me the stuff you gals and guys do, I feel very priveleged to be able to see such work from the other side of the world.
Ok here is a few things. The first is my gas pump, this is actually an Aussie pump, but I made a more stylish body and just used my imagination for paint and letting design, but it had to have a Gilmore glode (ps I ain't no sign painter) Next is a Harley I did last weekend, the other 2 area a couple of panels I did last week. One shot on cardboard, I like the affect of the paint absorbing into the cardboard.

[warpigg]

hopefully you, me, my chevy and your air brush can meet up someday...

[BARNETT]

K-Member, that is f'n great!! I didn't know you messed with lettering enamels...or lettering! Looks real nice, man. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

[whodaky]

Thanks for the compliments Brush, if I was there then it would happen.
Safari that is nice, I got to do more color filled stuff.
I know I have said it before but the Friday art posts are so neat.
Wasn't going to post today, just couldn't be bothered, but coming on and seeing all this great work I just had to contribute.
You are all a great inspiration to this humble Aussie striper.

[Missing Link]

Great stuff guys, as usual.
GV, I see much improvement in your stripes over the last few months. Very good.

[59BuickWagon]

Rick,

Is that Lee Pratt's car? Just saw it (& him and Jimmy) at the GNRS last weekend.

Dennis

[k-member]

Yeah Dan, I've been goofin with that enamel stuff for a while, my pin striping lacks so I will just concentrate on my lettering and pictorial styles. I will try to do a new one for next week! Did you see my airbrush T-shirt from two weeks ago?......

[fatluckys]

Here's a bike seat I just finished for Curt Six. Pink with a flower design, as requested.

[Nads]

Every week you assholes make me feel inadequate.
Fuck you all!!!!!

[Nads]

wideglide 74, the favorite piece of furniture I own is a Panton Heart Chair, I love that thing.
HEY Mike I dig your non car photos, you rule.
FA, what can I say?
GV, ditto.

Y'all rule.

[Tony]

I'm NO artist..I could only dream of having the talent you guy's do..
But seeing a few other car pics i thought you may like this.
I took this on the way back from the NSRA East Coast Nats in York PA.
I hung my digital out the window doing about 65 (held onto it so tight i thought i was gonna break it)
Thats a '34 5 window ahead of me, and a '32 chevy up front..
anyway, here 'tiz..

[ShortBus]

yessir, that's Lee Pratt. I shot the car for Custom Rodder.
That top is beautiful up close in the sun..

ratpak- cool shot.
hot tip: if you can figure out how to lock your digital camera's shutter speed at 60 (1/60) or slower, you'll get more blur on the road surface at that speed. shutter priority is what they'd call it in the manual. or use the landscape setting..


an old one.

[Buick59]

Shortbus you are one of my hero's and so is Steve Conan. Here is a picture I took this morning and ran to school and used the Dark Room. This was taken with my first homemade pin-hole camera. I was using a paper negative. This is a 7min exposure time. Not to bad for a pin-hole camera super ultra wide angle. The "Camera was only 10 inches away from the front headlight.

Its my Apache Truck.

[Tony]

ShortBus, thanks for the tip!! I need to do some reading in my manual.
Question for ya, how the hell did ya register in '69??? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[thrasherbill]

I picked up my new sewing machine last weekend and finally got to put in a little time on it today. Figured I needed a small project to get used to the machine so I did up the cushion on my chair in black vinyl and red velour tuck'n'roll.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid102/pf254028749755f668fd0cd7d5a06f46d/f9c2302a.jpg

Also got the carpet stitched up in my bug.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid102/p3b4639cf972666592e02a74ef294657e/f9c23039.jpg

The bucket seats are getting tossed to make room for a bench done up the same as my sewing chair eventually...

Fatluckys, what's with these people and pink?!?! I'm recovering some Marshall amps in hot pink vinyl for a local punk band. That's what they want so I'm doing it.

Bill

[ShortBus]

Thanks Mike. That really means a lot. I dig your work too. And we share a hero in Coonan..
That pinhole shot is badass! I made one of those in college too. 8x10 paper neg. photography in its most basic form.

ratpak, I'm way old school.. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif been on da HAMB since I was 4 and still don't have a thousand posts.

btw, that last pic of mine is the dash in DRD57's coop.

[Roadsters.com]

The Friday Art Show is great. Thanks to all of you who bring something to the table.

I haven't been around here much lately, so I don't know if this has already been posted. I recently had Bill Drake draw two new versions of the Deuce roadster that I use as cover art on my site and also on the T-shirts that I sell. As anyone who knows his work would expect, Bill did a superb job. Thanks, Bill.

i really wish i had a fraction of the artistic talent that shows up on this board.

while cleaning out the shop this morning i came across these cans of one shot, i had bought them a few years ago to have a guy do some lettering on a race car that i was helping restore.i popped the lids on a couple and they look fine. some have never been opened.

i would like to give these to somebody that could use them, rather than have them laying around my shop, so........

the first person to PM me their mailing addy can have em, i will ship them out no later than tuesday

thanks for the art.

Amazing work, guys... I love the Friday night Shows. Cool as can be... wish I had something to add myself, but the weather hasn't been good for photgraphy. Still, nice work everyone.

[G V Gordon]

Link EC,& Nads, Thanks for the encouragement. Can't wait for the one shot I ordered to show up. Friday Art Show isn't just a great showcase for the artistic endevors of the HAMB but a great encouragement for those of us striving to get better.
Thanks to all who pass along a kind word or a little tip that makes us better.
George.

[2tall2beahotrodder]

any one have a extra 000 or 00 brush the could send me... I just need a beet up old one, to learn on.. ill pay shipping and send ya some extra doe...

[Tony]

Rat Rodder, i bought a few right before X-mas as a gift. They are only about 7 or 8 bux each.
Might just wanna check a local automotive paint store or maybe online if there isn't one around you...
then again, maybe one of these Kats has an extra..

Rat......

You can buy a new Series 20 for about $12.00 from Mack.
You won't learn anything with a shitty brush.

Hey Rat Rodder, here's some web sites for striping materials, I hope they help!

[2tall2beahotrodder]

Thanks guys.. I "tried" to buy one off a site, place was located in canada. Sent them 15, 12 for the brush and 3 to ship... That was in october, and i havnt gottn the brush yet... So I probably got scamed, or they lost the money order in the mail...
I have been trying to stay away from online companys, so i thought to give HAMB a try. thanks Elvis, im gonna try the NJ place..

[Tony]

Rat Rodder,
Lemme know how you make out. I have a paint shop that delivers to the shop i work at. If you don't come up with some, let me know exactly what you want, i'll find out how much for ya. If you still want them, i'll get em for ya.

Rat....

[2tall2beahotrodder]

Thanks to elvis, i found a place that sells them about 30 minutes away... Still not sure if i can take a ride down there to pick them up, or if i have to send them cash and they mail it.. The one i picked out is 000 fine, costing a bit more, but it looks 5 times better than the cheeper MACK..

Thanks Tony, for your help!

[thrasherbill]

While we're on the subject, do any BC HAMBers know of anywhere local (Vancouver/Lower Mainland) that sells Mack? Opus in Langley sells a brush called the Dagger by Davinci brushes but I've never heard any info, good or bad about them.

Thanks,

Bill
