Custom car art?
I saw an ad in a recent HOT ROD magazine where you can aend a picture of your car to this company and they can create a drawing of it, if anyone knows what im talking about can you tell me the company name and or website? This is going to be a fathers day gift to my father so thanks.

Re: Custom car art?
I am not sure about this company but I may be able to help you out. I am quite talented in representational car drawings. If you send me a pic I could draw a detailed render then send you a pic. You could then choose if you wanted it or not. I know nothing about this company but I bet I could get you something for less $$ with great quality.
As an example here is an R8 that I sketched in about 4 hours in very small scale (this fits on an 8.5x11 printer paper Audi logo included). I could do something like this or something much larger.

Re: Custom car art?
those look good. How much do you charge for a 8.5x11 rendering?
How about something like this...
Its a picture of MY car. turned into a lithogram on a piece of corian. ( we did it on a cnc A LOT of work and time went into doing this.) I need to finish it off and put it in a 8x10 frame with leds in it. As you can see its just being held upto the sun light.

Trosley has been doing custom art since the mid 70's. K&B is now in Car Craft but he's also done a lot of automotive work for Cartoons. He's also done a lot of adult stuff for magazines like Hustler Humor. I've always enjoyed his artwork.
His work is fine if you want a cartoon style image of your car. There are many others like shown above that will just do a more realistic image of the car.

Re: Custom car art?
I have only toyed with color in the past so my experience is more towards black and white. I can surely accent the drawing with color as seen in the Z06 picture. And to answer ricklovin93 I can do any size provided the photograph is of high enough resolution.

Re: Custom car art?
Ill do an 8.5x11 for $150 and an 18x24 for $200. If I go bigger or smaller price will be determined by hours. Also thank you guys for your input I'm getting better and better every single drawing.
