    You know I love doing this one. :)

    Wes - My 328 was Chiaro Blue - Aug's is a lighter California Azzurro.


    Judge - Thanks for the kind words - That is a good idea - I'm going to find some photo paper & frame one. :)

    Post the regular picture of your Dino & I'll paint it for you. :)

    I'll paint those cool night shots when I get home from work - I think the 2nd pic will look nice.

    No problem - I like they way yours turned out with the people in the picture.

    I think I am one step away from cutting off my ear and moving to the South of France. :)

    Nice little sideline you've got started Jerry - the one of your TR looks great.

    If I ever get through this case I am in the middle of I think I have a better picture for you to do of my 348 as well.

    OK back to my paying customers!!

    Cheers

    I am still just amazed at the results.

    Isn't there a way that a photography shop can transfer the image to a faux- canvas giving that painting look? I think that or a standard poster size print should be do-able. With this style, I don't think resolution loss is as dramatic.

    any recommendations?

    Here you go - It might turn out a bit better with a pic with some landscape in the background.

    Jerry, this is a pic I took at Monterey last year. Any chance you can do it? I tried with Corel PhotoPaint, but it doesn't come out the same....

    TIA, Dave

    If anyone wants a hi-resolution version, just email the hi-res pic to :

    [email protected]

    and I will email back to you the painting.

    Cool. I saw that 288 GTO and I couldn't resist it! Here is what my professional illustration software can do.

    I'm in the process of constructing an X/Y plasma arc cutter which I intend on using to cut the major lines of the illustration into steel, then use enamel paints, chemical patinas and electroplated gold and silver to create the hi-lights. It ought to look pretty nice. I might use your photograph for the first one, if you don't mind.

    (we'll see if I attached the jpeg correctly...)
