Oh, I gave up drinking, so no more pinstriping coming from me...I can't hold a brush straight to save myself unless I've had a few, and it was time to stop having "a few" when it turned into not remembering the last 20+ hours...I leave the drinking and the 'striping to the professionals now...
i didnt see a bad stripe job in this thread i wish i was that talented i cant even draw stick figures freehand
Here's a couple:First is a set of doors on a dartboard;a real pain to transition across both doors and make the design look right. Next is a plant pedestal that my wife bought and never used.It is about 3 ft.high and six sided made of OSB covered with black Formica.She bought 5 of these things and they all wound up in my garage being striped.
seeing this work really inspires me. I want to learn to stripe. Always been facinated by striping. Last year I tought myself how to lay down gold leafing. That was fun, now I want to combine the 2. Any advise for one looking to begin. Read a couple threads but more and more knowledge is great.
I had to figure out who "Philly the Greek" was 'cuz I liked his stuff and laughed once I found out! Hey Phil! Brad
Here is the striping I had done on my 61. I designed it and had my buddy Danny Riddle do the hard work! Came out awesome and just like I designed...
HAMB'r (and fellow East Valley Demon) "REX at Lowbrau Lines" striped my air cleaner lid with our club name and some stripes. Looking forward to getting it back on my car !
Phil, is that a yellow '60 el camino? I saw some shots of it on a Google search i did. Very nice work on your part. I was gonna throw a post out on who's car that was and some more shots. SLICK
Here is my Gretsch done by Pacman and my friend Ol' Sol's Buick. The Buick is all hand painted one shot, stripes, scallops, characters and all.
I don't mean to embarrass Geoff, but he is in my opinion on par with the "greats". I believe that anyone who knows him will agree. -Brant
