I just finished my second charcoal sketch. I can't get the detail as good with it. But it does have a mood about it. This is what happen to all our vintage tin. lol

 

A 9 foot steel dragon's lower jaw.... I'm working on the upper skull now.

Here it is polished out a bit

 

An older one I did, that fits my space sketch. { Chaz } keep us posted on that dragon. That is way Kool!

 

Earth to Stogy...You had me going there Ron...I thought that was a road shot...a wheel with hubcap, a yellow line on pavement with a sketch of your coupe on the road...but I've now been beamed up...Alian Hotrod ******ing...
Happy New Year

 

Chaz...When that thing is done is it going to eat old car parts?

9ft that is going to be a sizable dragon...

Wild Art...Happy New Year

 

That's OK Stogy, My granddaughter drew a picture for me for Christmas. I was telling her how good it was. When she told me I had it upside down. lol You have a great new year too. Ron...

 

Cheers Steve.

 

I have to laugh at that. My grandson (10 yrs.) came out in the shop , looked at it and said "That's full size"
Having never seen a dragon myself I guess I just have to go on his word!

 

Thanks for a great 2016 everyone. I think next month will be a year for me. I watched awhile before posting. Here are a few of my favorites from this year. This is a great thread. have a{ HAPPY NEW YEAR} everyone. Ron...

 

Oh man....that is gorgeous....nods of appreciation to a beautiful work of art!

 

the ( Virginia H.A.M.B. Special ) XO/PP 640 Bonneville project ... completion date, Summer 2017. paint concepts

 

Thank you Ron, highly appreciated. That's a really cool pic of your wife and the car.

 

Ok boyz n girlz, I promised a special woodgraining project and here it comes. This for my 39 std Tudor, it's a custom glovebox door and will be hand painted inlay. Of what you may ask, so screw it, here's step 1. Got a nice copy of the V8 emblem that was used in various ways. With a light and dark side it has a 3D sorta look, just right for an inlay.

Next I centered it up and traced it onto the door with a sharp pencil to ghost the image where it needs to be.

Getting the dark and light values right will make or break it so I took a bit of time laying out from this:

And finally to this.

Each "side" of the logo will have a different grain running vertical, 1 light and 1 dark, the rest of the dash will be grained as you'd expect to see it. This will take some effort and patience so it might be another couple Fri art shows before we have all the grains and top coat. Off to a decent start. Tomorrow I begin the masking and grain effects. Enjoy the ride...

 

Hey guys and girls of the FAS. I'd just like to thank you all for your great art contributions throughout the year, it's definitely one of my favorite weekly threads on the HAMB. Wishing you all a happy and safe new year and looking forward to seeing more great art in 2017 and hopefully posting a lot more of my own.

I didn't get my art project for the week done, so I'm saving it to kick off the new year!

Just a tease: Desk Top Art Work # 128, an all steel COE with a tilt bed! The bed measures 5" x 10 1/2".
