Subscribing!!!

Bubba's79 · 04-14-2010, 06:17 PM

i love that really sets it off

watahyahknow · 04-14-2010, 07:32 PM

it may be subtile but i think the tribals would needed the dise to be more filled the gaps between then is a bit irregulair and big , you could tape over the tribal flames and add a couple in a diiferent colour crossing over and filling in the spaces staring from a line a little higher than the one you have on now so the tribals somewat overlap the original line maibe getting one realy long one to go over it from the door to the rear

Looks good man! I know I told you that on the phone this afternoon. But I thought I would say it again. I do like the subtlety. Good work.

thanks guys! i would add more color, but, as it sits, i really like it, im not too big on lots of crazy graphics, but it cant be plain either, i think these are just right for what i was going for..

joe231 · 04-15-2010, 08:25 PM

Beautiful!!!!

trixter99 · 04-15-2010, 08:51 PM

I think that you are very talented at painting, but I am not a fan of the green flames they dont seem to flow vey well.I'm not picking on you this it just my opinion. I like all the colors and the two tone lay out just not the flames, but you know what the say about opinions and assholes everyone has one.And once again I think you have skills.

Thanks for the compliments guys!
And no worries trixter! What would the world be without opinions? There are a few people who tried to convince me nt to do graphics..but I kouldnt stand a plain truck..always wanted something like this since I was way young, got the chance to do it so why not, so I went subtle, consideering how I went on the camaro it is subtle to me

but came out great and I am very pleased with it, again, thanks for thee compliments!
