i think they are fucking sweet tits!

 

My kind of woman!

 

ok, so i got busy this week.......

heres the stuff i did.....

 

A few of the trophies I've made .....


Aluminum plate, waterjet cut-out and then tumbled to look like galvanized steel.




Again waterjet cut-out parts from aluminum, painted base with brushed and clearcoated skeleton.

 

Thanks to some encouraging words from a new Hamber that I met at the North GA HAMB and Grits meeting, I've decided to learn how to pinstripe. Here's the results of the first time I've ever attempted to do it. Yeah I know it's shit.

 

wow. rockin show this week guys. no contriband here this week as I've spent like 50 of the last 80 hours at the office. lots to comment on but time is my enemy here.
doubleuc, I'm bout ready to drive up and have a shop day to get on your Christmas card list!!!

Hey man,

If you're gonna pour those up in aluminum, pour up one of each for me too. I'm a player.

Doc.

 

some xmas cards i printed up last year...

 

acme speed shop, that trophy is fucking ILL! Thats a good thing...

 

Squindo
Nice Job! Your stain work rocks, can't wait to see what you come up with for our art show in Seattle, see ya soon

Acme Speed Shop that "brush off" trophie is pretty amazing ... i like it!

Nice show everyone, all the X-MAS related art is pretty cool.

 

Fly'nP---Your really good.

Merry Christmas everybody. Here's one I may have posted last year but I've refined it a bit. Besides, i'm on vacation in SoCal and don't have anything new.



Then there's this quick sketch I did as a Christmas gift to a guy who helped me out.

 

I did this...In progress, part 1 of a 1/2 sleeve......

 

Clean cut , Those are NICE !!!

 

Art show in Seattle? Please PM me some details. Good stuff everyone, you too Barnett!

 

very artistic , i fuckin love it..

 

man o man I really dig this

 

Great show! Squindo, your stuff rules, and the medium is rad!

I always wondered what my dentist was doing in the other room, when he left the gas on.....

 

checkin in a little late, don't try and burn a dvd, download fotos and surf the hamb at the same time, it don't work, after seeing lill billy's pinstriping practice i had to jump in. i got some mack double 00s for my son and i to play around with over the holidays to pull him away from all his electronic gagets. I've been an artest guy for a long time, done calligraphy, hand painted signs, but i gotta hand it to you striper guys.
how can you do those lines and then do it again inverted? here is my first evil attempt, my dog makes better marks on the floor when his tail gets stuck in the housepaint.
got a long winter ahead if i plan to pinstripe my daily driver this summer
keep it up lill billy, you got a good start
love the pinstripe metal from acme speed shop
squindo-nice painting
merry christmas everybody
you pinstripers rock

 

​

 

hahaha..the way you feel bout striping..is the same way i feel about all you sign painters..and that stuff you call lettering......im trying...but when i need some reassurance i pull out my striping brush....and pull a few lines, to remind myself i can still paint a straight line..hahaha

i so need to practice my lettering skills....

 

Preview for you CAB- hope you like it, and we'll see you soon.

Here's a partial cover up done by my son, Austin.

 

Happy Holidays everyone

 

Last year's art. I've been too busy to sketch something new. Happy Holidays! Peace and axlegrease.

 

Billy:
If you are going to practice curves over and over,
do right and left curves at the same time.
One way,then the other way.

Symmetrical designs will have curves in matching pairs,
makes sense to practice that way.
Or you risk being better one way than the other.

 

Wow, awesome work as per usual from everyone. Nothing gets me more motivated to keep at it than a browse through the latest art show! Well done evryone! Props to you!

Been a while since I posted mainly as I lost my email account and couldnt log in, hence my new screen name. (used to be joe deertay)

Anyways, three different approaches, first a quick pencil ink and acrylic pic. Tried to keep it quick, and timed myself to under 30mins...



Next, a slick rendering (see portfolio section of my site for a tutorial on how to do these! Click Signature!) This is for a series of renderings based on cheap(ish) British tin. Not totally appropriate for here but thought i'd share anyway. It's based on a 60's MGB GT.



And last, an acrylic on mdf painting. Excuse me if i've shown this before, but cant remember!



Merry Christmas guys and gals, hope you all have a good one!!

 

CHARLIE! Good to see ya still around! Austins work is impeccable, as usual! I've got ideas for my next piece, and there's talk again about hittin VLV! We might be invading your shop once again!
