Art & Inspiration >>>FRIDAY ART SHOW..... Happy Thanksgiving<<<

Great work so far by everyone. Jeff, thanks for posting all of those, true masters of illustration. Janne, congrats on the R&C coverage!
Here's my first post. The work is older because I realized my more recent work isn't HAMB friendly.

 

Congratulations Janne. I can't wait to pick up that issue.


That is a great piece Phred! Very animated.


Jeff, I've got some old architectural illustrations in that very flavour. I would also like to see more done today.

 

I was pretty busy this week getting the garage ready for winter but I had some time to do this. I bought Painter 10 about a month ago and got my tablet last weekend.

Its O/T but what the hell...

My Grandpa was in WWII in Japan and the Philippines from 1944-1946.He was with MacArthur's 41st Butchers. I have about 50 pictures from when he was in training camp to the atomic bomb going off.

I took two pictures and used Painter and water colored them to make my Grandpa in color and left evry thing else in black and white.

 

Great Show so far from everybody -Gabe

 

Cool stuff.
Been busy with other stuff this week, but here is one I posted in another thread elsewhere a while back, so some of you may have already seen it.

 

Dutch Courage those are awesome
Britt8m your stuff is always cool
Norwell...I dig those old ads...especially the mopar christmas...thanks for posting those

 

That's sweet, that's my Caddy!

 

Some **** for the day after....

FLIP

 

Hey Everybody! Wicked start to the show this week. Must've been all the turkey we devoured yesterday.

Gary C- That Buick is *****in' man!
Dutch- Love both pics! Your stuff is mind boggling!
Janne- Congrats again on your R&C feature my friend. Excellent work!
A32flathead- Beautiful shots as always man. I'll get to that Merc yet, I promise!
Lockwood- Lookin good man. Way to add in those darker shades.
Blackbaron, Yblock, Britt8m, mindseye, all very cool

JEFF! Thanks for posting all of those beautiful ads. I have been a fan of those types of illustrations all of my life. It is truly sad that we will likely never see such amazing automotive advertising ever again. (love the 62 Impala ads). My mother in law's dad owned a small Chevy dealership and all the dealer ads, promo models, signage and such were all auctioned off and the old building torn down. Damned shame- of course this all happened years before I met my wife.

Anyways, here's a few from me. Hoping you all dig 'em.

 

DeadFast 33- Those are freakin cool! Wow!

Jonnyrocknroll- I love that car man! Awesome!

 

ToddJ...what's not to dig? Beautiful stuff

 

Wow this is a great and diverse display!!!
These threads never let me down!!

 

Phred---have you ever worked for Pixar????????
You should!

Nice adverts Jeff! You reminded me that I had these in my files, waiting to get re-framed.

In the old days, GM Photographic used to post this kind of stuff all around the Tech Ctr to showcase Eng achievements over the years. They did a lot these for Styliing & Marketing too. Sadly, I think most got binned over the years.

I got 4 of these as they were demo'ing part of the Tech Ctr to build the new tower some years back. A guy was taking them to the dumpster, when I rescued them & hung them in my cube.

Ger- THX for the poster, it came yesterday.

 

cool stuff everybody, especially Phred, Toddj and Janne

 

Lots of cool stuff guys as usual

Here's my first post on an art show thread... Its sumi ink over pencil 18 by 24. Its a picture of a choppers car i stole from on here...

seem warmer. I think it's the 'dad' connection.
Everyone, your stuff is great, thanks for sharing it.
Happy Thanksgiving

I posted this on F.A.S.T. and was told to post it here. It falls in the category of 10
minute sketches tho it took 12-15...and was produced on my Cintiq in Photoshop.

So a guy turns to the owned and says," What's that thing stuffed with? Looks good."

Another guy says,"'Suppose that things got a 'wish-bone' suspension, huh?"

 

Great stuff guys! Janne congrats on the R.C. spread!
I don't have any new stuff but I have some old sketches that I want to flesh out some day.






How about an Auburn road racer or...

......A Club-de-mer hot rod with a blower and three carb sticking through the hood.




Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

 

^^^Just WOW--but that Club de Mer---> Magnifique!

Wow Blackie thats beautiful

 

Hiya everyone hope everyone had a good thanksgiving! .
heres some balllllss ive been working on haha

 

Wow, Jeff, those guys were an inspiration to many of us I'm sure, my first car was the 4 door Vauxhall Victor, a 1/2 scale 57 chevy, now that bought back some memories.

Del, those drawings are first cl***, you can pick the people with the real talent by their sketch work, pencil lines cover no sleight of hand.

Blackie, that's one nice illustration.

Here is a little photoshop fun
