Do any of you artists do commisioned work i want some T-Shirts designed.....?

 

Here is a skull carving (and my youngest boy) I made a while back (both of them)

 

I think it would be safe to say that everyone that post on here does commision work. Just drop a PM to one of the artist, I'm sure they will hook you up.

 

looks sorta fmiliar!

you got it! i love that car. got a soft spot for those cars.

 

I just showed my boss (who isn't the biggest car fan) and she was really impressed!

I really enjoy your work!

Anytime you feel like illustrating a certain car let me know so I can send you a pic... I don't mind seeing our photography turning into awesome illustrations.

Hidden, 1-Shot & others... could you guys do a tech thread how you do those cars? are the vector graphics? I have Illustrator but can't figure out how to use it!

 

....I'd show you.... but then I'd have to kill you....
It would be neat to see a few different tech threads on how everyone creates their art... there are so many different styles represented here, vector-wise... I'm sure you'd learn a variety of techniques...

 

77 replies/entries and it's not yet friday... I'm not a big fan of gratuitous ***patting, but no one does an art show to this high caliber on a weekly basis like the hamb does! cheers!

 

Tingler did a tech thread on T's that was the ***s.

Comeon guys.... time to spit out the Illustrator secrets!!

 

With all the cool Tiki art this week I thought I'd post a pic of one I did from a stump in my front yard awhile back. Can't remember if I posted it when I did it so here it is. @ 6' tall and all done with a small chainsaw and 4 1/2" grinder.



And some simple striping I did today on my son's 50's Bilt-Rite baby carriage. Going to stripe the sides this weekend.

While I was in the garage I snapped some shots from the archives. This old art is from that late 80's when in high school. I was really into musclecars then.

 

I don't remember if I've ever put this up before

 

Man its only Thursday and theres 5 pages worth of art !!! Great stuff guys !!! Here is my submission for this week. 8x10 on gessoboard painted with 1-Shot.

 

Outstanding, boys!...I've enjoyed the show so far...

 

Truly inspiring gents. Thanks to everyone for sharing.

Here's a commissioned piece - don't even get me started on the wheels, I could barely draw them, torture.

 

WOW! cool stuff everyone!!! I really dig all the tiki art this week. I'll jump on the tiki band wagon, too...A friend of mine is making these longboards, here in S.A. They're called "Garage Bomb 54's"...they're 54 inches long, 13 ply, 3/4" Baltic Birch, 40" wheelbase. Usually he stains them as per the customer's color request, but I woodburned the tiki and stained the deck myself. I also made the grip "tape" with silica sand and clear. Cool, huh?!

 

GREAT SHOW GUYS!

Thanks for all the compliments. Deadender60 is sent you a PM also.

 

each week ****s on the last....

and Nate, your pencilwork ****s **** HARD
