Nice work! I'm just getting back into airbrushing again. But this time I have a really nice one so the learning curve on hand control is going to be a little steeper.

I just noticed I didn't put anything in here. I thought I did. I was born and raised in central Ohio. I can always remember drawing things. I remember drawing cars all through grade school and into high school. I also remember always building models. I would build them with my dad when I was young, and hobby had taken off from there. I majored in industrial design at my local art college all the way till I graduated. The funny thing how I never combined all of this until a couple of years ago. I started out doing drafting on the side for local companies, but it wasn't till I was working for an architect that the pieces started falling together. I get some jobs from a couple of local rod shops, some repeat customers and the occasional magazine article. I would like to get more jobs, but the family time s already crazy now as it is. I really enjoy the entire process from putting ideas down on paper, working them out realistically all the way to the final product. I would love to become a professional and do this full time, but that is a long road from here.

My work is done by hand, scanned into PS where I touch/clean it up and add things and finish it off. I use marker, pastels, colored pencils and ink by hand and only use a very limited amount of tools on PS. I remember looking at work done by people like Steve Stanford and Charlie Smith while growing up (and even Cartoons) and just being amazed at their work.

While I do not have a project at the current time, I look forward to the time I can get another one and have the people I have met through all of this do the work. I have had a couple of Chargers, but would like something smaller next time. I hope you enjoy my style and I look forward to hanging out here again.

I am new to the site. Most of my work is done the old school way with pencil and paper. I am starting to get into CG stuff. I dont have any of my work on this computer yet its a new system specifically for CG.

I will post some work later when I get a chance just wanted to say hi.

Welcome Corso. Hand drawn renderings and other artwork are still valued and appreciated. By all means, get some scanned and posted.

There is some VERY cool stuff here. I have respect for artists... I can't draw a straight line with a ruler.

Eye Mechanic Car-toons
 

Hello Lateral-g members, new to the website and wanted to introduce myself. I am 30 years old from Surrey, British Columbia. I have always had the car bug, love to tinker with design and mechanical aspects of the car hobby. I have been drawing cars in toon style for 15 plus years, focusing my talents on giving enthusiasts a scewed view of their car, truck or bike for a reasonable price or free. I look forward to drawing some projects posted on this site, building my portfolio in the process. My portfolio is viewable @ eyemechanic.webs.com
