I guess everyone is in Texas, so I'll get things started. A jacket I did for a customer, Wakita Oklahoma is where they filmed much of the movie Twister. And I just got this is the mail from Tingler. My very own J. Tingler Monster Shirt! Love it Jason, the pic did not do it justice. Even my wife was impressed.
don't see one yet so let's start it off with some stripes...and my "nose art" is going to be hung in the Toronto Aerospace Museum !!
F*ng newbie ya' know... I wish it was Friday where I am. Today is my birthday and I'd rather be somewhere else than work.
A ZZ383 with a BG Sixshooter ready to go in the '35 Chev behind. A little fun with "Light Painting" in the dark. Hand held spot lights and a 90-second exposure.
Here's my latest in charcoal...it measures about seven feet by four. Still got a little refining yet to do, but you get the idea... If anyone was wondering about the car, it went together in 1950s L.A. on a Kurtis 500KK chassis, with custom body by California Metal Shaping and SCoT-blown inline six by California Bill Fisher.
Off to a good start again this week! LeftyLucy, your stuff is INCREDIBLE.... Been hard at work on some stuff (new shirts, too!), a lot of it late-model.... So I thought I'd share a couple of slightly older ones.... The '55's (Chevy and Pontiac) were commissioned by Natas and published in Street Thunder Magazine (thanks man!)... stockers, and what a time I had drawing something STOCK.... talk about a challenge... ...and this Caddy, a local car I've been called upon to render... pardon the modern wheels, please...
Well I bought some of those Jimmy Flinstone shift knobs at Detroit, so I ended up spending $600 on an airbrush, paints etc to paint my $10 knobs... looks like I'll be posting up stuff in the artshow soon! IWATA Eclipse HP-CS Airbrush Kit along with an AIRBRUSH-DEPOT MINI TANK COMPRESSOR Here's a pic of the airbrush for now
Janne, I was posting while you posted... (getting confusing...), and just saw this!! Awesome as always!
Here's one I through together today at school. I couldn't draw circles for crap today, but whatever. "Hand Grenade Machine Shop"
Jimmi C cast painted 'n mounted for a friend , long skinny for local show 'n some covers whipped up for Dice mag they'll never use
Will post some stuff later but I just had to share this find.A quick history: I did a new generation T-Bird awhile back for a guy's wife and during the Detroit Autorama he came over to ask if I could do his Corvetter in a couple weeks.Made arrangements and he left.He came back awhile later and asked if I knew anyone interested in old striping brushes. Turns out they were cleaning out his wife's parent's house and found the sign kit that her grandfather used back in the 30's. Well he brought it over today and we made a deal for me to stripe the Corvette in exchange for the kit. The box is cool but most of the paint inside has long since hardened(it was striping lacquer).The bonanza was the three old metal cigarette boxes(30's era)FULL of Mack stripers,broadliners(for doing really wide lines or letters)and Grumbacher round liners!What is even more amazing is that virtually every one of them is still serviceable! I cleaned one out(a#4) and even though it is still a bit stiff managed to pull some pretty decent lines as well as some curves with a very minimum of ,"feathering". I'm putting up the pix of the brushes and box and a test panel I just did.The lines run from about 1/32" to 1/4". I am so psyched about this.
just fiished this last night. It.s Juniors ford from the may 57 motor trend cover. I have always been impressed with this car. let me know what you guys think.
