Would anyone buy artwork of there car from me?

Would anyone be interested in buying any artwork from me?

Here is what I would do, you'd either mail or e-mail a picture of your car that you like, and that I can see decent detail in.

I'd charge you $20 non refundable before I do it, do a charcoal drawing for you, most likely the main car drawing being larger then the one of my car down below, and then possibly another one (like in the corner of the paper below)

Then I'd send it back to you, if your happy, I'd trust you to send me another $20, if your not happy, keep it and Im sorry.

I wouldnt be a complete ***, if it were horrible, or if for some reason I just couldnt make your car look rite, of course I would give you your original $20 back. I just mean "non-refundable" as in, if I think its good, and you say it sucks, sorry.

I'd ship it to you safe in one of those card board poster roll thingy's Dimensions of the paper it would be on are 18"x24"


would anyone be interested?


MODS: I hope you leave this go, Im not doing it to advertise, Im posting to see if there is enough interest to make it worth putting time into.

I don't suppose you do any airbrushing in full color do you? A friend of mine had his truck and mustang with his and his g/f's name in script done on the back of a jacket, and it looked awsome in my opinion.

Not all the shading is done on this one, and I have a line or two missing, but heres another one, I dont really want an animated sig, so that really wouldnt work, sorry.

I don't think it'll really work. You know the majority of people are gonna say its not what they thought it would be and keep it for $20.

And honestly, they aren't that terrific. That last one has some crooked things about it and its also out of proportion. Not to be mean, but just some constructive criticism

I actually think the ones of my car are out of proportion, the camaro really does look like it cause the shading isnt done totally, but the camaro I actually measured distances between things and scalled them up from a photo of my friends car and stuff. so I know that lines up rite, I just have to finish the shading on it. ....and make it look like the rear tire is inflated, that one isnt done yet, just posting a pic of it now

but thanx for the criticism I understand what your saying.

Take a picture of a Camaro or Firebird from a bunch of different angles. Then use the pics with an overhead projecter to get the size, shape and proportions correct on the paper or canvas you are using. This is how some of the world's best artists draft out their work.

Ever heard of wildlife artist Robert Bateman? I thought so ...

If you can start hitting this kind of quality, they'll be knocking down your door at $200 a pop
