Folks Of Interest ot: Seeking H.A.M.B. Artist Permission

I found this on the H.A.M.B. a few years ago and it has been my favorite piece ever since. I like it so much that I would like to get it as a tattoo. I want to get permission from the artist first, but it's been so long ,I don't remember who did it. Does anyone know who the artist is and can point me in the right direction? I really appreciate it.

Thank you,

Vince

 

Maybe Lead Sled Olds; the pinstripe work looks like some of his T-shirt designs.

you might want to post this on the Friday art show social group/ or thread it might get more exposure from the artists on here

 

what kind of car has a piston so big and crank journal so small?

 

holler at 1-shot slinger...it's his work

 

Thumbs up for asking, most wouldn't.

Doc.

 

and no apparent need for an oil ring.

 

Thanks RockyJr!

 

Lux...it's a cartoon. Let it go man. Let it go.

 

i 2nd that. in todays world most would just steal it. good for you for asking

 

And that piston must be aluminum with such little wings making it fly

 

He never got over the fact that Goofy talked and wore clothes but Pluto didn't...

 

Really stand up guy here! Super cool that he asked to use it. This one one of my first designs to ever be put on a shirt. Was actually sold here on the HAMB by PDXLefty...don't really know whatever happened to that guy though.

 

I have one of those shirts. It's one of my favorites!

 

So did you give him your blessing to use it to grace his body into old age? Inquiring minds want to know.......

 

He did. Here's how it came out. Tattooed by Ian Carder at Forever Tattoo, Sacramento, CA. Finished it a couple hours ago. About 9 hours total split between two sessions. I would highly recommend Forever Tattoo, totally top notch guys.

Thanks again to 1-shot slinger for letting me use his design for inspiration.

 

big props for asking, cool.

 

and the pin so far down in the piston: a MODEL T FORD of course silly!

 

That artwork looks fantastic as a tattoo! Pretty big commitment, came out just right...
