Pure artistry Ian, I just can't conceive how you do that and how long it must have taken, the face, lettering and carbon effect are absolutely brilliant!

@Xracer - Thanks you for your kind words. I guess it was about 40 hours work in total. The lettering I draw out on computer and cut masking for, then it's just a case of painting it in. The "smoke" was free hand with curves to create it. The portrait all painted by hand. That was the most difficult but and last piece I did but it really brought the shell together !

Once again, thanks for your kind words

I love all the green smoke stuff Ian - the whole thing is just fantastic.
Colour choices are spot on and as you say the portrait is the icing on the cake.
Best paint job i've seen in ages. If you took the face off the front - it would still be amazing

You're being too kind AndyS - your stuff is tip top mate, I love your designs because they're so thought out and "designed" the crisp lines are super cool fella. Thanks for the praise though, means a lot coming from you.

Well, it's been 4 years since I was last here... and none of my old pics are here due to photobucket going so, would someone be kind enough to tell me how you post pics nowadays.
Thanks.
Glad to see some familiar names still posting.

Use imgur basically the same as photobucket but free

Thanks Ashlandchris. I don't know why everyone was so obsessed with that shell.

Tyreman - Thank you, I shall look into that later and get it sorted.

I have google photo, will that do it ? I don't want to have a link I want to actually see the pic in the post. Imgur seems to be very accessible to everyone. I'd rather my own album that I can share via here but it can't be widely seen otherwise.

When you upload you photo's change the album from public to private.
It gives you the bbcode which you enter into the picture link and it put the pictures on the post not a link.
If you want to keep the size the same as the page change the size to 1024.

I'm not looking to take on any more work ever as it made me ill but it will be nice to be on here again and share some of my old work and any new shells I do purely for myself. And chat to you lot of airbrush wizards again.

Thanks fella, it's an old shell, maybe 2012 or there abouts. I don't have anything new but thought probably a lot of people haven't seen my work so wanted to post some of the best ones again. It's all good to chat to other painters but I can see the forum isn't as busy as it used to be.

When I figured I'd like to try racing again it was the first place I thought of, then I realised photobucket had gone (in effect) so decided I should maybe post a few of my old designs up. You FB page is looking cool fella. Nice to see you still knocking out those awesome design, super neat. I took on way too much work before to the extent I stopped racing to keep up, still couldn't catch up, made myself very ill through stress and gave up RC entirely. Will be good to get back to just racing and my own shell but no one elses.
