Default Airbrushed Art Work w/ Manifolds...

Not my work here but my buddy Andrew B. He has a ton of talent with airbrushing. This was his first quick attempt at doing a intake manifold.




Pics do this no justice, all free hand with the colors he had handy. It came out pretty damn good.

He also brought over two canvas panels that he did, one completely airbrushed and one airbrushed with his first try at striping with pinstripe brushes....not car related but cool too...

Here is the first panel thats all airbrushed.






Second Panel airbrushed and striped, kinda retro kinda new...






This kid is sick, works at circuit city and does this as a hobby With that kind of talent i'd be doing it full time....thought some here would enjoy this stuff too.

Yeah I know its not the first intake painted with "fire" on it, but it was his first attempt at it and I was very impressed at how it came out.

looks kinda artsy to me, not quite the "true fire" that the other guys on here have done, but who am I to judge, it still looks good. He has way more talent then I could ever hope to have!

I wish I had a dollar for everytime someone said that to me. It's a lot harder than you'd think to make a living as an artist. That's why I still have a full-time job too.

His work looks great. I sense a fascination with skulls.

Yeah it just trips me out how he has a eye for stuff like that. In the pic it looks like the flames are sitting above the canvas, but here in person it just looks crazy. I gotta get a better camera

He did this just to mess around but he is very well versed in doing things from graphics to flames, to portraits of people. Looks like he is coming around though to doing this type of stuff more on a professional level. A motorcycle shop had him do some tanks. I wish I could do stuff like this and it always impresses me when members post up their airbrush artwork and thought I'd share some of Andrews.

I'm not going to put this manifold on the car, its too nice.
