Below is t-shirt art. What do ya think? My Influence is mannum/ trosley
Green sedan is an oldie but goodie.that phrase reminds me: This week's featured theme is poodle skirts, root beer floats, & crying dolls, 'cause da fifties are nifty!

Oh, bottom pic was the original sketch for the t-shirt.

 

Ah! Damn It!,,,,It's not Friday. It is Thursday.
OOps Sorry 'lil earlier.
Ya know...3rd shift SUCKS!!! I never know what day it is! Well -no worries, have only three days left before my ass gets laid off from the airlines! Guys know of any jobs that need a starvin artists?

I'll presume you know of no jobs. I'm goin back to college. Clown college. I'm gonna audition to be the first MFS Kustom Kulture clown.........

 

Cart-Nik,
You should have left your self-portrait in the scene....is that a genuine Viking race helmet?

 

I'm sure it's Friday somewhere.

Vermillion Pearl and Fire Red background,with shades of Sky Blue.

 

hey Johnny, the viking helmet is my ALTER EGO. Actually BoB WiCKi is based on two of the most eccentric people I know

 

heres one... Nick I really really like that drag race scene in black and white...

 

I'll share this...

I SCORED the mother of all of my drafting tables... I really really love this table, just picked it up yesterday for free.

Same with the two Opaque projectors. I've been on the hunt for a good one for a couple years and I get 2... Thank god, now I can ONE SHOT a huge ass RAT FINK on my door like moriairty!!! haha. I cant wait.

Its waiting for the contractor to FINISH my damn studio... please hurry.

BTW, my Cherry-Picker was inspired by LITTLEMAN- the RULER.

Tuck

 

CarartNICK, Tuck, that is some awesome work!

Here is one of mine that I prepared earlier .

 

Well, I will bring this one back to the top. Nothing as complex as last weeks mailbox but a couple things.

The panel is clear, backcoated with some copper spray glitter I found at Hobby Lobby on the clearance rack for a buck and then back coated white. Really pops in the sun, you can kind of tell where the flash made it sparkle. The orange is a 50/50 mix of chrome yellow and bright red.

Put a little something on my air cleaner top as well.

Good start for the week guys.

 

Well, now you can see my chit twice...

Here's some of my latest-

Stripe on glass with my new "Pizza Boy" striping brush

The homemade cut-offs
