Old school race car lettering (with picts)

Here is the new paint sceen we will be running from here on out.
You want to piss off the painter, tell him you want drips, nothing stright and brush brissles in the paint. NO computer made mask, no vinyl and all by hand. I drove to drink but I think it was all worth it.......
What does the HAMB think.........................
The first shot was computer generated to see what it would look like, after a few pops we came up with this........................

 

I like it a lot better than before it suits the car more

 

pretty cool!

 

Turned out very cool.......nice work by the painter

nice work sir!!! It appears that the creativity grew with the beer cans.

 

Damn dog drank more than both of us!!

 

Nice John. Did Z do that?

 

looks very Sharp!!

 

I like it! It would look good at the Meltdown Drags!

 

Yes he did. Rite now he is slow as heck....anyone need some lettering or striping, Call Johnny Z..........let me know

 

Looks rotten, er' I mean great! The whole car is killer

 

I love the shadow lettering and the letter colors look great on the car

 

Got contact info for the striper? PM me.

 

I think it looks killer. The dog, however, does not seem as impressed.

 

-Unless its eat able....he dont care

 

Vinyl sucks HARD.
SO GLAD you put a signpainter to work for the day!

 

Looks Great!!! Can't wait to see it in person!!!

 

Looks great! Nothing beats the look of hand lettering, and thanks for keepin' a fellow brush slinger in groceries!

 

Very talanted,super!

 

It came out awesome. That whole car looks mean as hell.

 

You Sir..........just made my day. Thank you all for a great responce.

Jon

 

That looks really nice, it always amazes me to see the step by step. Very Cool and I know Cool when I see it!!

 

Wow awesome.

 

Looks Killer!

 

God love ya for going with the hand lettered job!

Plus your pictures tell a great story. Starts out with the vinyl job. It's OK. It's legible. But it's got no "oooomph", no heat, no soul. Then the brush job starts. The white base coat looks pretty good just by itself. Then the orange and green airbrush work. Ooooo! It's getting kind of muddy looking. Does this guy know what he's doing? All of a sudden there's a bit of drama and doubt. And then.... BLAMMO!!!! A clean black outline and a drop-shade! You suckered us in and fooled us. Turns out your sign painter knew what he was doing all along!

Get us some nice pics outdoors at the track!

 

I'm with Jon, for what it's worth...

 

That looks great!

 

Car looks FANTASTIC!! Hand painted is the only way to go!
