^^^ That's some get-the-hell-down styling.
Oh man, have I got a Buddy-L story..

 

Enjoying the show. Some unique stuff here tonight!

 

If only I could be as boring! Amazing gift you have Sir....Never boring. That'
s what so great about the FAS....So much talent, so many styles....everybody has something to offer. It's the Coolest place on the Planet. Centurion9

 

Late to the show again. Caught quick peeks of the show during the day. Fantastic stuff!!
Finally found some free time to post my latest sign. Custom designed dealership sign for Enfiled Joe here on the HAMB.





The laser cut pieces before painting.

 

How about a little holiday cheer? Some of my previous years holiday cards...










And here's the first draft of this years card...the final changed just a slight bit. For those of you who are friends/clients, you'll be getting one in the mail soon.




Some of these older cards are available on my site for anyone looking for unique cards to mail out.

 

Couldn't have said it better myself dusty one!
John, Your work is tops and, as stated, is definitely art. It takes a creative eye to compose the perfect balance, to drop in just the
right color, to set the perfect aperture, to dial in just the right exposure, toe create just
the right light, to add texture that only exists in the elements within the frame, to add
mood and emotion, sometimes using the simplest of details and to take a huge environment full of objects yet create a space so simple that the viewers eye is taken
directly to the focal point.
Each piece you posted this week represents those qualities on a very high level and still
keep to the artist's creed of "less is more."
Don't let the cynics, critics and the uninitiated get at'cha, use it as food to fuel you to the
next level!


Ken, nice work, buddy!

 

wow ,my first time viewing this thread...ok you guys got me,, looks like ill be be back again next week! unbelievable work,hell i have trouble drawing stick figures!

 

I finally inked a 32 Deuce. The original is on a 22x15 inch board.

 

Nice work everybody!

 

Question for the sign painters in the group. I'm planning on painting a portrait in the inside of my shop urinal. Would one shot (no pun intended) be the best product to use ? or is there something that will adhere to ceramic better ?

 

Coolest ever Spoggie!!!!

 

I don't see you whining about robots made from scrap or Day of the Dead stuff....you just bothered because it's a cross?

 

ThanX Gary C (beat or not, the purple tub is straight out cool). Keep the FAS foot flat thru the traps!

 

hope I am not out of line, but it is time for the first saturday of the month art show over at Speed and Kustom, how about sharing some art there too.................

Here is some art for a t-shirt for a dragstrip I work at...
very much still a work in progress...
I'm having a local shop do the art work, as I am no artist...

Here is a photo of the car, and 2 different (dark and light) t-shirts...

Please critique them, I'm not married to them yet...
something isn't just right in my eye, but I can't put a finger on it...

brutality is ok...as long as it is honest...

 

I think they would be killer... without that blood stained gangster look! Keep it simple.

 

I was so busy typing, I missed your post. Great work Mr. Moore!

 

Here's my dual quad 455 Olds

 

I assume your refering to my photo....?? If so then yes it's a real truck here's the un edited photo....

Really depends on whether you're gonna get serious or just piss around with your mural!
Honestly, the One-Shot probably has as good a chance as anything for this job, the only thing you might find is that the byproducts could be a tad bit corrosive! Good luck,post o the FAS when you've got 'er done!

 

kinda late but heres some of my stuff/stuff I am working on. I'm just coming into my 1970s isma show car paint phase, and it actually has helped me lol. I got extra credit in art class believe it or not for some of these renders! Hope you all enjoy my work!

My 10 year old son Wade loves hotrods and electronics so for my birthday he made me this of 'his' 46! I'm very proud and impressed!If you can't see the headlihgts and the lamp post lightup,the turn signal blinks and it makes revving noise!
