Artist's Comments

OK, so in Automotive Forums a contest was organized about drawing this cherry 58 VW, and George Trosley, the hot rod legend, would be one of the judges. I came in third place, but I dont care about that, I'm happy because George Trolsye thinks its very good. In fact, here's his comment, in a literal Quote:

comment: Whoa! This is it! Pushed as far as I think you should go and still respect the proportions of the car - very very very good! Go get 'em!

So I'm VERY happy. One of my lifetime heroes just said im good. (:
This is the piece I submitted to the contest, done in two and a half hours of rush with my usual technique, pencil first, then ballpen, then prisma pencils.

Yeah.

I'll send him my website so he can see more of my art and maybe give me an all-around opinion on my work, but Im way motivated to continue and do good. It made my year (:
