Custom paint. 56k get a drink
Hey folks.
Saw this on the airbrush forums, honestly, i really dig it. Excellent work. Im sure a lot of you will rip it to shit, but i thought maybe some of you would like the look of it. http://www.airbrush.com/forums/upfil...F570E4BF82.jpg http://www.airbrush.com/forums/upfil...01537B4C5B.jpg http://www.airbrush.com/forums/upfil...16D2902BB4.jpg |
The detail is damn good, I think the base color of the car kills the overall theme. If it was a Black or DSG it would look WAY better. IMHO :silvercup:
|
I agree the artwork it's self is unbelieveable, but it on that car, idk.
Have any of you see Trick my Truck on CMT? The guy who does the painting and airbrushing on there does some of the coolese paint jobs I've ever seen. |
Would look cleaner if the flames ended right behind the front fenders, instead of going all the way back like that, good job though
|
Nice work but Id be scared someone would shoot me driving that thing around
|
I can't really say that I like it...
|
gay..
|
The horse is over kill. Flames in general is really pretty gay, but that color scheme is alot gayer.

The paint scheme is pretty cool, just not on that particular base color.. Would look much better on a darker canvas.. |
Why would I need to expand my vocabulary on a forum where the word gay is over used?
|
I like the flames but that horse has to go. lol
|
fantastic work... but whoever did it used some shit ass colors... they dont go well with each other...

tats the thing about any type of true fire... it just looks best on black or red. |

flames look like crap if they stand out... they need to blend in... kinda like they aren't there... but if they blend in too well they look shitty...
so its a hard art EDIT: the guy is definatly good, but it would probaably have looked better on a black car, but that is the buyer, not the painter. |

well the problem with pulling off convincing fire is that fire creates light, it does not create darkness, so really you shouldnt use any colors darker than the basecoat or it starts looking kind of funky.
most of the time a cars color scheme is sent out of wack by flames... which is why althought there are thousands of great painters... only a few recieve recognition |

Then again, the thing about this stuff is it is up to the person to decide if they like it or not, there are no official rules to this, just personal taste |

The artwork itself is awesome.
The base paint of the car is.. pretty ugly, on something darker it would've been nice. It doesn't match the car very well though, I mean yea, its got the horse on it and everything, but to me having that on that sort of body just.. doesn't flow well.. Also the top of the car (the convertible top) doesn't match with it at all.. I love the artwork, I don't like it on the car. I honestly think that it would be better looking on something like a trailer.. but I'm not big into having outrageous paint jobs on cars anyways.. However..anyone watch the travel channel with those crazy diesel trucks? That one truck had like..a 300 thousand dollar paint job on it? ANd the guy had a F150 to match it? |
A black car with red flames would look good
How's your airbrushing coming along,jack? |
ugh...i dont think it looks good in anyway...even the artwork..the flames look too..repetetive
|
I dont like it,the horses legs are short and it looks like a miniture pony on roids.
|
pony on roids
hah!:kekekegay: |
I am only commenting on the artwork because the colors doesnt work at all. I have seen much better detail and the symmetry of the horse is wrong. With a little more practice and attention to detail, it looks like this guy could become a great custom airbrush artist.
|
i can see the flames lookn tight on a chopper but i dunno about a car
