Well since one of Chris's pieces of art work is posted on this thread already, lets just make it two. This is an original that Chris Froggett did of Big Olds. It was commissioned by friends of mine in Watford, England as a girft to me. It's not really HAMB style but I'm sure most folks can appreciate it for what it is, a very cool piece of original artwork by a very talented individual.
Great "Rat Fink", Caffiene! Those are fun to do. Wow! Denise, I'm impressed! That's a great illustration. Thanks for sharing that! Ray, those were cool pics. I really liked the helmet. Great work as usual. As long as the art show is still going, I thought i post some over exsposed pics of my 1982 era striping on a '70 T-Bird lowrider. Joel
Ah, what the hell. As long as I'm living in the past this weekend, here's a pic of my best buddy's '57 Chevy. I did the flames and the car is mildly striped. '82 Chicago WoW. The car now resides in Florida. Joel

I use it all the time basicly for resizing since I usually take high resolution photos cuz I print alot of them out. Just keep hitting evaluate each time you go to use it. Download Lview here I posted this here instead of sending him a PM cuz I figured others might be interested in it as well. Back to our regularly scheduled programing!
After K-MEMBER saw that American Beetle tattoo, he called me to his shop. "After 12 years it needs a touchup". Here is todays pic............OLDBEET

Flexicoker, that rocks too! You wanna be my new best friend??? All kidding aside, would you do me the honor of sending BOTH those images to my email in the highest resolution you can. I've never made a t-shirt using my printer but I'm going to give it a shot with those two images. If they turn out, I'll send you a t-shirt for your trouble. Include your snail mail addy and your t-shirt size too. hotrodladycrusr@aol.com
no problemo, lemme fix up the flame one a little first, and I'm also doind a graffiti style one right now
My weekend project(still unfinished):a 50 Merc pedal car body being converted into my next paint box.Floor of 3/4" plywood,steering from a yard sale wagon,accessory wheels,and piano hinged roof.Body is still in gel coat and still haven't decided the final color scheme.
Ok, one more before the weekend's over I had to lower the quality alot so it'd fit, thats why its fuzzy.
