Art & Inspiration -----Friday Art Show 13/10-----

WOW! What a show so far.

Got a little done this week.

First, as promised Denise, your light switch cover.

Second is a bottle with a religious theme.

 

My girlfriend is an awsome artist, so one day I said paint an exhaust pipe and this is what I got....its hangin on my lounge wall.....I also said a few years back that I love a certain SRV album cover....came home to this painted on my bathroom door ....I was renting and have since moved, so I had to unbolt and take it with me haha.......you can see the door handle for perspective of the size.....Im on dial up so I had to loose a shitload of quality....hope you guys like...never posted in art show before. .........Bert

 

Cool stuff as usual all. I don't think I have posted this one yet. A little Chebby action. This one really looks nice out in the sunlight. I used gold paint thinly mixed onto a clear coat on the car, and it sparkles like a white metalflake paintjob.

Great stuff guys !!! Here is something from me for the "Heavy Metal" show in TX.

 

Just a couple to start out with.

...And in color...



Speaking of color, does this work? (line sketch was posted last weel.)

 

The desert. Where the creature and the Creator meet.
That's beautiful, man.

By the way Buick59, I like your handle(and the song)

 

Great stuff as usual from lots of talented folks. Here's something that I'm currently working on. Still got some lettering and background details but I THINK the fink is done. I might feel deferently after a little nap.

Some stripes I put on my brother's guitar.

Another outstanding show! The work here is beyond inspirational. Thanks to all who post. I did this panel last week for the Pinstripe Legends auction up in Milwaukee in January at the WOW. I scanned an old mag, stuck it to .080 aluminum and striped it. According to Pat Ganahl in his book about Von Dutch this particular issue featured the first occurrence of pinstriping on a feature car in HRM and the car was from Indiana!

 

oldbob....GREAT looking panel, very different.

Got a few to add.....

Janne,

Here's another t-shirt design...
I'm off to the Hunnert Car Pile Up!

 

Tin Man Fabrication's T-Bucket


57 Buick

 

Nothing near as pretty as what I've seen so far, but here's some scribbles from my sketchbook. Tryin to make granny's 64 Falcon look cool!

 

Second effort my ass, you been pinstriping for quite a while. At least it looks really good to me.

 

How do you make/take picture like this, is this photoshopped a bit?

 

I'm strapped into a harness hanging out the back of a small pickup. I use a Canon 20D camera. This was the middle of the day so there was to much light for a long exposure. I doubled up two density filters on top of each other to bring the light down and set my exposure to 1/8 of a second at f/4, 100 ISO. You hhave to do a long enough exposure to get those wheels to really spine. We were doing about 50 mph. The tough thing is dealing with camera shack. You have to hold it as still as possible and take LOTS of shots. I took about 75 to get this one. And no, no photoshop.

 

I'm impressed. I wish my first 50 efforts looked half that good!

 

killer car and killer shot. and i really dig the shot of the t-bucket, that is my favorite angle for an open wheel car, nice work!

 

Incredible! That has got to be one of the ultimate ways of photographing a car.
