[ QUOTE ] This one is just some lines done on a section from a coke carton! [/ QUOTE ] I think the Coke carton is GREAT! Never thought of using one but it works!A couple of quickies:the front and rear of a friends chopped Shoebox.I'd put up a pic of the car but I don't have a picture that is compressed enough and besides it's got(gasp)BILLET wheels!

Here's this one in case you missed the post... This is the backing for a cabinet I put all my models in, painted by the one and only Robert Hamilton!!!
thankyou Fast Elvis. Yeah Safari I am always looking for different stuff to stripe, I like to think outside the square a lot. Actually just finished doing an Emu egg. They are qite popular with the folk art types.
Whodaky that emu egg would be KOOL to see......if you finish one in the future I'd love to see pic's of it!! Cheers

[ QUOTE ] just got back from a road trip with lownslow. guess who we bumped into.. [/ QUOTE ] mmmmmmmmmmmmm.....flakey!!! Wow! That's a lot of flake. Nice job capturing it!
I'm definately no artist. Just a putz trying to practice my painting and striping skills. Here's a cooler I am finishing up. Airbrushed flames a little pinstriped outline and some Spindrift flake. I can't get a good enough pic of the flake to do it justice.
Ah, I still don't have my some of my panels done, but I did start a few. Starphotoblvd is blazing right now, so I thought I would post these anyway. Here's some of my striping and font work on a new 2003 Chevy dump. As you can see I put too much into my secondary copy. I just love this biz. Here's some of the finished stuff for the Detroit Autorama Pinhead Panel Auction. Not to mention Super Striper Kieth Knecht paint kit. Outstanding! Last is a pic of "Deadbeats" member Jimie Litwalk, doing high quality jamming on a panel at the Detroit Autorama. Not only is this guy a kick ass artist, but a high quality guy. This is the second week in a row that the friday art show has been amazing. Everybody, I mean everybody that contributed did a great job. Thanks for sharing. Joel PPof c
This is what happens when you go out in the shop too early in the morning and have 4 cups of coffee to get your heart pumping!

[ QUOTE ] it's amazing to see what some of you can get done in just one week Monster [/ QUOTE ] I read this somewhere years ago ' You can always make time for the things you enjoy doing' The majority of panels I stripe don't take long at all in actual painting time, but cam take a while to do, in that; on a panel I am not striping that particular constantly. That is I will gngenerally have cd on and just use the striping thing as a total release, it can be so relaxing and maybe quite therapeutic for one's state of mind. Whoops I am starting to ramble. I hope all that made sense. I could talk for hours about striping and where it can take one's mind! Thanks for listening and I love the friday art Posts

Thanks for listening and I love the friday art Posts [/ QUOTE ] I agree Geoff;it really doesn't take a whole lot of time to generate a panel and listening to music is a plus.I usually have the local college radio station on that plays mostly jazz.I am not what you would call a jazz aficianado,but they also infuse a lot of blues with it.Weekends(especially Sundays)are even better in that the morning shows feature a lot of music from the 20's and 30's and the afternoons a mix of blues and a lot of other stuff. If that fails,I have a lot of self-recorded CD's of everything from country(Laura Cantrell and Delbert McClinton)to rock(the Amazing Rhythm Aces and Little Feat)to Mojo Nixon and Robert Randolph and Stanley Jordan and dozens of others.All of it makes painting that much more enjoyable. Well my rambling is getting out of hand and I'm headed back to the shop as a guy is bringing a truck over to flame.I figure after it warms up I can work on it tonight and have it finished in the morning when he picks it up and heads back to Buffalo.TTYL Ray
I wanted that piece Jimie painted ... It was well done and I know it would not rust ... but it was also wanted by someone with bigger pockets ... I'll get my self a Jimie next time ... and I will supply a prepared panel.
