Got a little more done on the Drag Nut figure for the Finkosel. Tongue and teeth this week. The teeth are carved out of Corian solid surface countertop material. Its harder than hell to work with.......
I always add a link to the finkosel for those wanting to check it out....

The first one looks like "old world" art, reminds me of a compase on a map.
The second one is way cool on that red panel.

Rollie I just picked up a ceramic skull for you to stripe!

 

Lookin' good, everybody! Whodaky, I LOVE that first panel.

I striped my brother in law's 57 Fairlane at Billetproof last Saturday:





Started on an Edsel too, but need to finish it before posting.

 

Excellent work Steel Phoenix.

 

Thats it... I need to have some Whodaky striping for my wall at home...

You gotta sell me something!!!

 

A few of these I've posted in the calendar thread...but I've lost track, so here they are. The last 4 are from Paso 2003 (or maybe 2002, heck I don't remember).

Here's my left shoulder. Kritz did this for me last weekend. My first. I'm still amazed at the utter lack of pain involved. Plus, Kritz gave me a mini-tour of Flint and I got to see the Mad Hatter. It's a store that sells everything from sweet nunchuks to ice cream bars to Kangols. That and we saw a guy pedal by on a Rat Fink bicycle with huge ape hangers.

The point of this post is that I want to make two recommendations to you all:

1. Get Kritz to do a tattoo for you. You won't be sorry. As a bonus, the walls of the shop are covered with a ton of great art he's done.

2. We should all move to Flint because it is arguably the coolest urban mistake that anyone ever made.

Oh, by the way, Grace is my 11 month old daughter.

 

My newest... it will be on slush box soon..

 

New Work-poster i did for halloween

Old, Old, Old Shit:

White Hot Rod, car that was in MFS
blk 56, owner ran a auto parts store
1930's trucks found in AZ
red hot rod, donated to NADS
Gene Vincent Portrait
Harley painting

 

The wood is still wet! This thing came out way better than I expected. The wood was hand painted with a micro brush. Don't forget the pics are 5x the size of the actual car. Time for a muscle relaxant! Enjoy!

 

just some practice

 

Cartoony study of an old Posie car by me. In cold cast nickel. Also vintage tow rig with streamliner on the back. Cold cast nickel.
And finally two gear shift knobs. First is Gort, the robot fronm the old sci-fi movie 'The Day the Earth Stood Still' ..that one is in cold cast nickel. Last is flying eyeball in cold cast brass. Everythings available.

Hey Lesabre are you doing lost wax when you make those.

Oh hes doing the same shit I do. Just with metal powder in it.

Give up the wagon I need it for my Buick collection.

 

Its basically the same process. With lost wax you're pulling a wax pattern out of the mold and sending it to a foundry to go through the investment casting process. With cold cast you're pouring a gel coat resin/metal powder mixture into the mold which becomes the piece. No foundry involved.
