Art & Inspiration I can't believe it's the Friday Art Show.

No paint for me this week. Had a go at doing a PC jalopy instead.
Used Corel Draw, Photoshop and the amazing style of "Empire 32".
Whadaya reckon?

 

Must be nice to have artistic talent.

 

Do photos count?

 

Got a little done this week. Just working on my striping. Couple of tiles and a plexi panel.

 

Boop panel and a "ditchfind"

 

Nice stuff so far....Here's a few for this week. This one's available on eBay.

Here's another....man I'm losing it. Can't remember if I posted it before.

 

Rollie,

I like your stuff. That nondescript hub cap came up real nice.
Did you stripe both sides of the Betty Boop panel?

 

Daddy-O I Theres something about your desiigns I always enjoy !!! Good stuff!

 

I like teh paintings, if I can ever figure out how to use anything but a striping brush (i.e. camer and/or scanner) I'll some pics of mine up here...

I guess this is the best place to post this. ANy of you guys from the Friday Art show going to theSasekalahewata Oklahoma Letterhead event March 11 12 13 in Oklahoma city?

No, it's only striped on the one side, it's about 7" X 18" smoked plexi.

 

I've been there 3 times,well worth the trip for anyone
who is seriously interested in learning about Pinstriping,
hand lettering,Gold Leafing,airbrushing,Glue Chipping,
gl*** etching,carving,sculpting,etc.

Here's my contribution for the week.
This is my insperation to work on my car.

You cant see it but every square in the grill has a highlight and shadow in it

Yeah its a hemi and I striped it for some rich dude that I should have charged more but i didnt know he was a yuppi til he showed up at my house.


Heres my twentyth bowling pin I've done and I've ran out of ideas and pins.

 

you got it!!

 

Here's a shot of the striping that Steve Cox put on my T. He works all of the regional car shows in and around TX. and OK.

I finished up the Desk Top Art Work late 30s coupe this week (sold it in the HAMB cl***ifieds) but I'll post up a few pics of the finished product.

Also did my first rendition of a Desk Top Art Work chopper bike (for sale in the cl***ifieds).

Last are a few pictures of the Desk Top Art Work Hemi Willys coupe (also in the cl***ifieds), the Willys is kinda unusual for me. My car club has a pinewood derby race every year. We have a few "cl***es" for our derby cars, one of which is called the "Cheater cl***." The rules for the cheater cl*** are pretty simple: 1) There has to be wood someplace on the car. 2) The track is 3 1/2" wide.
The willys was my entry into the cheater cl***. This one has plastic wheels and axle from a pinewood derby car, and actuall rolls. Gene

 

here's my 2 cents............my third practice panel 'n a altered pic

 

Hey leadsleadolds...sweet pinstriping on the HEMI cover. Who'da thunk about putting one on that...oh yeah, you mentioned he was a yuppie!

Here's your next disclaimier: "If you're a yuppie, please add an additional 30% to total bill. No need to ask why, just cuz."

You shouldn't talk **** on your customers. You'd be surprised how small the internet really is. James owns an upholstry shop and could help you down the road if you were to ever to need it. Not to mention he's a total gearhead.

Nevertheless, he and the rest of the 300c crowd loved your striping regardless of your lack of respect for your customers.

I was the one that recomended he contact you.

 

Oh man Im just playing he's a nice guy and hes getting a hell a deal. As far as the 300m's they are about the only new model car I like besides the magnum.

Sometimes (alot of the times) I dont realize you cant read sarcasm. Sorry.

 

Outstanding work this week so far. Here are two I drew this week.

I'm impressed as always by the talent around here.

Here's a quickie drawing I did yesterday. Not overly happy with the way it turned out, but it's about the only car related thing I drew this week [sorry about the ****py pic. My digital cam ****s ***].

 

Here's #2 painting in what I think will be a series of 7 or 8. Once again, many thanks to CAB for his inspiration. It got me off my ****!
