WOW amazing artists here on Fchat I will only say that yours are great... I really can't compete with yours I do paint too... but not in that league!
There are some talented people here. I wish I was an artist. I'm inspired once in a long time and I'm impatient so all my work is quick, only spend a few hours on any given project. The taller guy is made from a smashed rear bumper from a 1962 Ford Fairlane, the other was scrap pieces I had around the shop. My goal on the bumper was to have no left over bits. Ended up with a couple bolts when it told me to stop. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Are those over-vert? Or is that just the effect of the lense? Are you buiding these for a skateboard, bike or?
This is a fun piece. "Behind enemy lines" Or... The Shu takes a drive. Can you see the racoon, owl and deer? Image Unavailable, Please Login
a couple of recommendations. Draw lots of circles and ovals before you start drawing for 10 or 15 minutes. Next, buy a good full set of ellipse guides... for the wheels Since you are using color, start playing with degrees of color lighting... Red cars would be red, orange, and yellows. (and no color for the "brightest" and a wider contrast. Blue cars would be Blue, violet, and light blue... etc. Don't worry about messing up, just get some Vellum paper, or marker paper, and "fix" what went wrong on the first drawing without losing the "good" stuff. Not everything has to be solid color. In fact, nothing should be Finally, get some white pastel, cotton, and a razor blade... and carve off small shavings into a pile, grab it with the cotton, and "wipe" it from one side of the glass to the other. It's a really neat effect Keep drawing!
I agree, that's awesome. I respect your work after attempting a few wedges and quarters in my younger days.
So many talented artists here on Fchat with lots of interesting techniques. One day I'll get off my arse and get some artwork done to share with you guys.

Hey Michael those are great! Quick question for you, was the last painting a composition you imagined or did you use a single photo reference?
Thanks - all paintings are imagined and put together with lots of research (if needed). Here are a couple more. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
