Terry, post some more artSmileWavy BTW, wasn't that the Finish Line, how is Lewis doing:D

Post whore!

Bush hates Post Counts.

Tom

So how can I get my absurd post count rolled back?

If you delete old posts, the post count drops

Isn't that like asking for penis reduction surgery? :D

HAHAHA! I could name more than a few, especially on the whacko political threads, who would probably draw that analogy. ::)

Truth be told though, I am getting tired of tripping over it on the way to the shower every morning. :D

I'll get some more art up here. I have to load some new pics as my old hard drive crashed and they (art pics) are all on it

Yes...that is the Finish Line circa 1993 or so. I've known Louis since I was a kid. Saw him not too long ago. He's doing really well. I think he's restoring a Speedster now. One of this areas best kept secrets for sure. I think I met him when I was about 14 or 15 yrs old. I actually painted his sign (which you can barely see) and designed his logo. I also did Moss' Mosport logo that he used on his shirts, business cards etc...

And Jesus only posted once.


(What, you missed it???)

Just to add some color to my thread and as requested:


A painting that I did for my buddy in CT who owned Momentum Tuning. It's a rear engined 400+ hp MKII GTi. Euro Tuner magazine car of the year a few years ago. (04 or 05).

They're not all cars. This was my family's house in Meriden, CT. I love painting architectural renderings as well.

Thank you for the compliment...I don't sweat them most of the time. I think it just got to me yesterday because I had posted in the thread. I don't even know if the guy was referring to me, but it got me thinking about it. You know...most of these guys probably know 10x more than I do but it's kinda like my view I always had toward good looking girls. I always liked the ones that didn't know how good looking they were. (or at least didn't show it). Same thing here. Sure...your smart...you know your cars...I get it...but you don't have to rub it in everybody's face at every chance you get! It's the whole attitude thing I guess....

Thanks Dave! Anytime you want one of your car you let me know. SmileWavy It's actually been a while since I have painted a Porsche, so i'm getting the urge.
Saw you a couple weeks ago turning in by Winn Dixie. Looks good! Sounded good!

TMSAutoart (Terry),
I saw the post you referred to and i was kinda thinkin' the same way. Why so harsh? I don't even really like the " search button is your friend" response when used on noobies (not that long ago I was a Noob. I may still be one?) You are correct... many do post short, frivolous answers that are non-productive. New owners are the lifeblood of this board and they look to the experienced ones for advice. Chasing them away with sarcastic comments is counter-productive. I didn't know you were an artist. Is watercolour your preferred medium?

PS: Timely post.

Well said! I couldn't agree more!

As for as the painting goes, yes, I enjoy painting in watercolors (or watercolours for you all north of the border and over seas :D). People seem to be impressed when they find out the paintings are watercolors. It's a challenge. I paint in oils as well, but haven't done any lately. I'm actually going to paint a picture of Jerry Seinfelds Pre A Gmund in oils. A nice big one. I took some great pics of it a couple years back

just found this old print....so I scanned it (poorly I might add) But you get the idea. Zoom in on the headlight/ turn signal / oil cooler fittings etc. and you can see some of the detail.

Terry, lets try to get together for lunch next week.

sure thing. Whatever day is good for you, just shoot me a pm.

Terry,
Really love the Maserati Birdcage? Type 61? (I think). The first one.

How Large is the original? Guessing pretty good sized.

Very Nice.

Do you do work for Architects? Developers?

Yeah, I asked about this early on in the thread.

No reply from the newb, though.

I kid, I kid. :D

The art is great, even more amazing that it's done in watercolors, IMO.

[QUOTE=surflvr911sc;4178182]How much of the post count is guys posting "sub'd" in the thread because they are too damn retarded to use the "subscribe to thread" selection under "thread tools" at the top.


Oh crap.... uh, er, um... guilty as charged.

BTW, if you knew me face to face, you'd know there was a reason my post count is fairly large for the time I have been here. Reminds of this great Foghorn Leghorn line:

But then I also do not go around giving people the business for low PC's. I just had a lot more to learn...:D
