I wont run on at the mouth over this, just know I LOVED IT!!!
This little design is for kids shirts, like onesies and what not. Kiddie gear. My good friend Donnie Miller of Miller Graphics in Oklahoma gave me a call and asked me to do this gig. It’s [...]
The second bus in the first EMPI design is a Mango that I selected via a thread on The Samba (a silly place that VW people flock to.) I will often ask for images over there. I could just do a flikr search or google image search and find stuff but it’s more fun [...]
Finally got a jump on the ELPI work and I get to start with my new friend Henry’s bus. Not only have I seen this bus in person, I personally know the owner and he is one of the nicest cats I have met in this hobby. Great bus, better guy. I’m [...]
Here’s a look at part of the next set for GuntherVW.
I was thrilled to get to do this bus because it is owned by my good friend Cory. he’s a super cool cat and his bus is one of the most recognizable out there.
I won’t get too long winded…it’ll be show and not really [...]
When the phone rang and I saw it was Big Herb of DHK (VW Club) I wasn’t sure what he wanted. I thought..hmmm…perhaps a meteor has flown over the SoCal area and machines are taking over and Herb wants to warn me about a really angry joker diesel truck.” As it turned out he wanted [...]
Here’s the latest Gunther car. Pretty cool stuff happened on this one. I knew I wanted to do a Fastback so I went to a forum for some Nor Cal guys I barely know and just said “Hey…who has a Fastback they want a drawing of?” Only one guy posted so I [...]
Well this was a fun one, that’s for sure.
As usual it all starts with a pencil sketch that I refine over and over until I lock it down.
Like I said there is some refining that goes on. Coming up with a plan for all that chrome was a bear but once I got into [...]
This Nomad rough is finally starting to come along. I have to re-draw it at least one more time but I can see the car in there so I’m ok with it.
This is really turning out to be a fun project and a welcome change of pace.
This is another piece for Gunther VW but this one had a little something special about it. First of all it’s owned by a guy who is a local Tucson cat that has wanted a drawing for years and number 2 the car is very unique in the fact that it has all the [...]
Finally back on it. The next set of Gunther cars will be a little different as a couple will be 3/4 rear views. It’s nice to find a place between the lines where you can grow. I’m pleased with what is happening on these.
The first one will be this Thing. It [...]
