WOW! Took some photers last week that I thought might be OK for the Friday Art Show,, but this weeks stuff makes my shit look like just like shit. So. tomorrow I go rod runnin with the big camera and a couple rolls of Vpan. Awesome stuff guys, keep it coming. Oh yeah, Whodaky's models are usually more awesome than his lines, the man is wasted doin fabrication work for a living.
Well as ussual I am in awe of the talent here. I didn't have anything to contribute till about twenty minutes ago. I hosed off the Grand Prix for a little run tomorrow and my wife got a call that a friend of ours was in labor, so she took off to the hospital and I decided to stripe my trunk.
no way, all the stuff I build at work is art. Industrial art, that has an application!!!! The last really big piece was like 60 Ton, but hey not only me building it! A hole bunch of artisans! Geoff aka Whodaky!
Go Karts were always fun. I almost got the sedan done in time. It's almost as much fun building these steel cars in miniture as the real things are, but the little cars are cheaper to build and take a lot less time.

[/ QUOTE ] Hey George - Saw the stripes in person on Sat. Looked great! Catch ya later.
[ QUOTE ] Horseshit Carps. I dig your work. all of it. gimme! [/ QUOTE ] Geez, now I'm embarrased. Guess I'll hafta dig something out for next Friday. Might have got something on Sunday. Car show in dark parking lot, usually delivers some decent images as a result of guessing which causes over/under exposure. If that film turns out to be crap, I guess I can find something in my archives or I can get out and do some more striping.
[ QUOTE ] no way, all the stuff I build at work is art. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, I know what you mean, I'd love to be able to cut lose in our plant with the camera, but it's too dangerous when it's working and a waste of time when it's not. Be fun to run some lines on some of the equipment, specially the big 12,000 ton presses. There's enough surface area on those puppies to keep us all busy for a year.
Wodaky: your work is a breath of fresh air. I have thought the same thing about a HAMB art show. I am working on building a gallery in Dayton Ohio mostly of Hot rod inspired art. I will be in contact with the HAMB artists within the next year for work. Even if we are spread out all over I think we can do something. Cherryblossm: Thank you!! Yes I sell the stuff.
Well seeing as I just can't help myself here is a really cruddy picture of this weekends work. I'll have a better picture later but the itch'n won't stop till I post someting on the art show......... this is one case where even a cruddy picture is better than a real life viewing......
