Trying Out a Little Red Accent

I brought a red Pilot fine tip gel pen home from work this week to use for some detail work. Here are a couple pieces I sketched out using it. First is this 1967 Mercury Comet Caliente drag car. I used the red to accent the lower headlights, headliner, and a stripe along the side…

Recent Chicken Scratch

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted what I’ve been working on, so here are couple chicken scratch drawings. I’ve been working on loosening up my sketches lately and working with just ink pen. Here are a few recents. This is a 1949 Chevy Fleetline fastback gasser. I’ve really been into older hot rods and drag…

1949 Chevy Gasser

It’s no question that gassers are my favorite. I just love the attitude. The 1955 is hands down my favorite – it’s iconic, and was featured in Two Lane Blacktop, one of my favorite movies from my childhood. As Iconic as the ’55 is, the years preceding it were pretty classic, too. This one in…

Old Crow

I’m feeling real hot-roddy lately. Classic hot rod style cars on toned tan just feel good ‘n classy so that’s been my style for the last couple weeks. Here’s an old whiskey delivery truck on toned tan. Here she is sketched out whilst I enjoy a whiskey myself. Markers next, just using grays on this…

1940 Ford

I’ve been thinking a lot about traditional hot rods lately. One of the coolest is the late pre-war Ford. This 1940 Ford was first sketched out on toned tan paper with pencil, then filled in with copic grays. Charcoal white was used for outlining and the whitewalls. Finally, Micron pen was used for details.

November Doodles

I’ve been working on some rough doodles that I think have turned out pretty cool. Here are a few from the past week. This is an old Kaiser that’s been lifted in the front – kind of a gasser-lowrider hybrid. This is my 1954 Plymouth Belvedere from college. It’s lined in pencil only, no ink.…

Inktober 2019, Month in Review

This was my first Inktober, and it was certainly full of ups and downs (mostly ups). I was excited to start as we were just entering October, and I had a lot of fun all month long but it had me pretty worn down by the end. The whole point of Inktober is to challenge…

Just half a week left! Here are this past week’s submissions. Day 21 – “Treasure” The 1968 Camaro from the original 1995 Treasure Hunt is considered the “Holy Grail” of Hot Wheels cars. If you can find one, they usually sell for well over $1,000. Day 22 – “Ghost” The car from “The Wraith” starring…

Inktober Week #3

Man, making a sketch each day is kicking my butt – finding the time is tough. Here’s this past week’s postings: Day #13 – “Ash” For this one, I thought I’d draw the Oldsmobile that Ash drives in the Evil Dead – this car was director Sam Raimi’s high school car and it shows up…
