    Thanks for the back up!

    I could stare at this '59 ALL DAY. Tommy V, if you ever decide to throw down on that wicked '55, it would be an honor to paint it. I love that !@#$ing thing.


     
  11. I like it. I understand the 'why' of flames.

    This thread inspired me to paint my daughters first car in a candy. I also used some lace, some scallops , dragon scales and some panel fades. I hope she likes it because I have like 35hrs in this car so far. I think it is either a 1936-38 Chrysler or <ST1:pEssex</ST1:p if you know for sure please let me know. I am converting it to a stroller.
    <O:p</O:p
    btw: my daughter is about 17 days away from being born.

    it was overcast when i took these picks with my phone. i have some turned stainless oven burner covers that i plan to trim down to use as moon discs. i will try to get some better picks. this was my first attempt at any of these methods. i think i mixed the candy to dark and used to many coats. she will never know the differance.

    what i started with
