Von Franco, those are outta the park man. I am diggin both of em man! I think I've found my Xmas cards for this year. I'll PM ya for prices, quantity etc.

Gary C, I gotta say, LOVE that 32 Chebby! I love how you mix the Bic pens and the photoshop. Two killer posts this week!

Dutch and Coupe de Cab!!! Thanks for the kind words! Coming from artists of your caliber, that means a lot. I look to haveprints available as soon as my site is up and running!

 

Hey Thanks bustedlifter!
I'm glad it's found a good home… you're good people!

Enjoy!

Again another good show folks!

Stay Cool!

My very firstest Photoshop. Thanks to Zumo for doing a '53 for Dan a while back. I borrowed the quarter panel and the tires from two of them he did. I'm going to have to work to get better but I'm fairly happy with this one. Chopped, sectioned, lowered, pancaked, and treated to 54 Lee lenses and 54 headlight rings and fender line.



My second one. Court wants his truck to be a green and stock fender openings. Still sitting at 'stock' height from the picture I found on the web. Wheels and tires to change and ride height to drop.

 

THANKS!
very cool! can't get enough of the artistic talent around here.

 

Franco, I love watching your techniques advance forward with each new piece. You really nailed that subtle difference between the polished carbs and the chrome.

G'day Jeff,
Bittersweet post. I don't even know what a new car brochure must look like. I guess I get enough through the press releases in the dailies.
You've posted some choice stuff here- the '62 G.P. & others similair are Fitzpatrick & Van Kaufman pieces. One of 'em did the backgrounds- the other did the car. Tag team !
I bet i can find plenty of detractors but I like a lot of modern car exterior design. It's pushin' out in various directions.Generally of the rest of the modern car I couldn't care less- too complex !

 

They gotta look good under light- Good stuff.

 

Here's a flame job I am working on.......Crappy cell phone pics for now.

 

Hey Von Franco

I don't see my request on that list!
Rudolph the red nose grill is gonna guide that sleigh tonight...way COOL Dude!

The Chrome is poppin on that "T"! Very nice man! Right click...friggin save!

 

Can't believe I'm about to say this, but I think I need a set of balls!

 

Thanks Todd, i'm actually revising the design and have thought about offering prints of this and some others.

 

Thanks Louie...

 

Some old dumb shit...

 

It's my new desk top till Christmas at least.
Great show everybody!

 

Nice one James! I wonder who did this one?

 

Wasn't me. I know that Adamo from our club does them as well.

I just get bored some times and do them.

 

I like them. They're fun. I've see some others somewhere but can't remember where.

 

Love this! Too cool!

 

Franco, this is so cool it's startin' ta hurt my feelin's...no...I'm wrong..it simply do hurt my feelin's. Man, when you 'get' a Wacom, you really 'get' a Wacom! Hope I 'get it' one day soon. Really neat!

 

Congrats, Janne. Much deserved. Stellar work, as usual!

I'm wit'cha here, Jeff. I have a friend, Mike DiFazio, who used to do those for Chrysler. But I think that was back when illustrators weren't considered artists.

Like N.C. Wyeth and his contemporaries, the hoity-toity asswipes of the "so-called" art world spoke of all these fabulously talented people as though they were tainted, or just weren't 'good enough' to be called artists. They were "just" illustrators.

I had many of these brochures when they were new. I remember well and with great fondness, when the new cars had their debuts each September. There was great secrecy at the showrooms, with paper all over the windows so you couldn't see the new cars before their unveiling. It was an event much like a holiday season, with searchlights ablaze in the night skies lauding the arrivals!

Hell, each Fall, all through the '50s and much of the '60s, people used to get dressed up in their Sunday Best and take their families to the dealerships to see the new glitzy offerings. It was an amazing time. And these great renderings are all we have left to show for it.

It's way long overdue that these immensely gifted people get the recognition they're due. I'm proud of the fact that you've taken the initiative here, as well as other sites. It has to start somewhere. Good on ya!

Bill
