Art & Inspiration ///////friday art thread\\\\\\\\\

Wow, great show from everyone!
I have been real busy this week. Here is a few pen and inks.

 

Great stuff! I haven't posted any art for awhile.. cause I have not done any!

So.. I thought I'd post one of MY DADS drawings. Dan Shaw, my father is a pretty damn good artist. I have numerous sketch books of his from the 60's and 70's of drag cars and hot rods. I'll get them scanned in and post some another week.

He did this a couple years ago for a guys business card.



DAN SHAW



Here's a picture of My ol' man in 69'. He was 19 years old.




Thanks,

Joshua Shaw

Some new drawings:

 

did this for my buddies shop in OC
classic cycles awsome guys and top notch work

 

Here is a 36 Zephyr pen and ink.

 

Hey guy's, I've never posted on an art thread before, not sure if my stuff is good enough, or if it can be considered art, but here are some pictures, I took.

 

Well I did not have a painting for last week. And I still don't have one for this week.
Work kind of does that to you sometimes.

I was looking through some photo proof sheets of mine and thought this section looked interesting. Added a bit of tint of course.

@Lefty
That charcoal is fantastic.
@ DutchC
That is so screaming to be on a shirt. I really like it.

SQUINDO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Will you stop making stuff that I will eventually have to buy from you lol........Now I remember why your my favorite artist

 

Thats bad ass cab......you coming to pistons and paint?

 

Always a great show its a blast to see everyones art. Thought I would share my current build, its called the Kosmic Kreep, it started out a 1/8 scale 29 roadster. Did some fabrication and scratch building, and yes thats a blown 392 hemi, still a long way to go. Trying to decide on some sick metalflake color to paint it, I'll post some shots if I ever finish it.

 

great work everyone!

and sonny that bubbletop is wayyyy to cool

 

Hello, I have been watching this thread for a few weeks and I think all the art is really cool and retro.I am 13 and draw in my spare time,when I am not cruising around with Dad and Grandpa.I would like to post my latest drawing inspired by you guys.Tell me what you think. I would also like to thank Jokem59 for giving me some great tools and tips. Nick

Pacheco, your stuff's the snuff, too.

Phred, that thing is cool... acro-bird you too.

Thanks to all contributors, great show so far, can only get better!

 

I'm always in awe of the art on these threads but THIS is AMAZING! Heck with prints, ever think about selling it?
You are VERY talented. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

 

@Acro
Denton, right? Not going to make it unfortunatly.

@Sonny Depalma
Metallic red.
That has to be influenced by the "Atomic Punk" right?

 

Thanks Guys, its going to be Krazy! Yes, I saw the Atomic Punk and it brought back my love for Roth style outrageous bubble top show rods. I took some ideas from that car and put a little twist to it, it is the most fun model I ever built cause the krazyer the better, Sonny

 

I vote for pagan gold flake...........my favorite

 

Super start guys!

Heres the finished project on the Black Widow Jacket.

Too many hours, too little money, but the end product is cool!

Lefty. Outstanding Deuce. That thing is huge! Very cool.
Jigger. Very nice sketches
Phred. The "Sharkster" is hot.

Here's my latest pencile rendering. It's 20"x26". I know it's not your typical Hamb subject, but I think everyone would appreciate this barn-find if they saw it. It's a 1922 Harley police bike from a northern suburb of Chicago. It looks complete and very rusty. There is a pacing speedo on top of a box on the gas tank to catch the speeders and in the box would be the ticket book. Ed

 

HOT DAMN! Whatta start to and incredible show already. Jeeeeeze! Fantastic stuff everyone! Here's my nickel ninety eight worth for the week. Have another one in the works but don't know if I'll finish it by Sunday.

 

ewt2, that sketch is sick...

pontiacres, nice stitches for sure!

Harpboys 4, good work, cool drawing.....my advice: don't stop sketching! As with anything else, the more you do it the better you get!
