    Go to Office Depot, and pick up the 22 pack for $18, I think it'd be worth it for you.

    Thanks for all the compliments!! 'preciate it immensely!!

    22 different colours... gosh.. gotta look into that... thanx Warren!!

    the F40 got pushed forward... due to circumstances around the office surrounding a "Magnum PI" joke I just had to do a 308 first. Nearly done.. trying to come up with a background - abstract or a scene...

    that's amazing....you need to get some good pics so we can use them as our desktop backgrounds....because that's the closest we'll get to having that kind of artwork at my work!

    looking forward to the next one......

    i've never been called "cool" before... thank you!! and i love the hobby/job alot...
    thx.. i do keep the photos from all the drawings... the whiteboard is quite a slick surface and reflects the flash badly... hence the "off to the side" look to the photos...
    Thankyou.. it takes practice... :)

    thought i'd add my latest.. the F40.
    over the last 2 or 3 weeks it kinda turned into a collage,

    certainly gets noticed around here....

    Grant,
    You've a very nice sense of color--purples, greens, yellows used where the viewer's eye doesn't expect it. It works very well.
    Good luck to you.
    If you are able to produce those drawings rapidly, I would think you could easily make some extra loot by 'drawing' sport car/bike events.

    Thank you.

    Nessessity is the mother of invention... or creativity in this case... I only have a few colours... unless all shadows and pavement and wheels are black - thats boring and i would run through black markers like crazy - one comes up with other things...
    Thx..
    348 eh? I WAS wondering what to do next... right now i want to enjoy this one for a bit... i'll check my photos and such for a nice angle and see what i can do...

    amazing. simply amazing.

    ink, watercolour, acrylic, pencil and now dry erase markers.. my god.. Ferraris in any medium. I get the impression we could lock you in a room with a lightbulb, duct tape and some charcoal briquetts and a week later you would STILL have some rendering of a Ferrari that would leave us speechless...

    When you chose your online name you were not kidding around.
    ferrariartist indeed. THE Ferrari Artist if you ask me.

    Keep 'em coming... lovin every one.

    F.

    ps. James: i hope you are serious. I HIGHLY recommend Grant. He did a Daytona rendering for me and it is FANTASTIC. If I may be nosy, I know you said "do anything" but what Ferrari would you choose? Grant, i hope you keep us posted, maybe a thread like my Daytona, step by step?
