Art & Inspiration >>>>>friday art - first of 2009!!! <<<<<

great stuff guys! this is my art challenge entry, make sure you go vote for your favorite.

 

Some new color work from me for the new year.

 

nice work fellas

 

I Love this thing - it's like one of those "How Many Wrong Things Can You Find" puzzles they used to have in the paper. It's Evil Minded.

 

Hidden that is simply beautiful!

 

Hidden, that ruck's jus' plain bitchin' man! Looks great!

 

Killer sketch Nate!!!!!!

 

"Transmission Trouble" Are you saying manual transmissions don't
use torque converters?

Hidden, love the pick-up man.

Nate,The 6-pack-O-carbs is one of my favorites from you, simply put,... beautiful rendering.

 

I guess I can post these now;the two boxes were Christmas presents and the recipients are HAMB members so their dad asked me to hold off until after the holiday.
The other pics are pieces of 1/2" Lexan(old hockey rink windows)cut up into display striping brushes which will likely be used for charity auctions this year.The other piece is a Lexan hood ornament for my 55 Safari that is finally finished.
Hope everyone survived the holidays in one piece.

 

Great stuff this week, everyone. Here's a revised and distressed version of something I posted a while ago. Happy New Year! Cheers - Mark

 

And one more Torque Brothers t-shirt design - I'm still trying to decide between the solid white or black background. Cheers - Mark

 

Very cool Mark; both designs look great!

 

I agree...both are very nice.

great show this week.

I really enjoy Friday's up here. Inspiring to say the least.

 

Very Cool stuff, Mark

I love that cookie jar! If I keep eating cookies the way I do my that painting will look like a portrait of me. The teeth especially.

Gary C - nice corvette!
Uber - amazing detail!!
Hidden - Your color work rivals your back and whites - fantastic!

A quick edit of one of my photos!

 

You guys are great ! Here's something for smiles

 

Several years ago, Lexus I believe, had an ad asking where were all of the futuristic cars designed and promised to us in the Fifties and the Sixties were. They showed Detroit show cars and of course showed some sort of boring Lexus.

I've always loved those Detroit cars of the future, so I thought that I would try my hand at it. Most of these were sketched last Thursday, while watching White Christmas for the nth time. Except for a couple of the earlier ones, all are 1/4 inch lead stick (in a holder) in a 8-1/2 x 11-1/2 bound cotton rag sketch book.

 

Hi All!
I am new here to the hamb... I do all kinds of Art Stuff... and My BF said I should post some here.... So here I go.... This is a Purse I painted awhile ago...


Now.... on a Different note... I have been driving said BF CRAZier..( than normal... ) ...... I have a 64 Valiant ( Project...BIGTIME! ) and I have this idea in My Head that i want to Flake the Roof... We have been looking for examples of what i am thinking... None to be found.... I want to make the Roof Leopard Spotted... and do the Spots Black Flake.... And Ideas / Suggestions for doing so? ( Heeeelp.. I KNOW it could be done! )


Ok... After that break.. back to the Art.... Here are some shoes I did...



And a Mini Doll House Amoire.......

 

Amazing work, everyone - There's just so many styles, materials and subject matter on this post to be inspired by. There's some really fun stuff this week - especially the imaginary car drawings. A couple I'll point out that I really like...

I'm Thinking awesome T-shirt....

 

I thought I would throw this over here too.
I have not sculpted in over 12 years and this is something I came up with last night for a project I am doing. Its not complete but this is after a couple hours.

 

Factory 1969 and Senior Fried...thanks for the kind words on the 55! I never thought about T shirts...but now that you mention it I may have to try that! Course my brother will probably be 1st in line!
What is the process for T shirt printing? PM please!

Thanks again
Neal

 

Awesome pickup and funnily enough your brother's wannabe '55 is exactly the same as mine!
