I am always learning too much and have to stop. I just spent 2 hours spec'ing out and researching where I can get the 5 different rivets needed to reassemble a set of 65 door frames. Once they come in, I will have to practice setting the different rivets on Pebble Beach chrome. It was foolish to think I could quickly learn how to draw and do it.
My sense is I will take pics of my own cars or from the web and then apply some Photoshop filters and additional vector art from Illustrator. Then give that to a professional artist for marker sketches. Definitely best use of time and ability.

I actually used the red one as a laptop background for a while. I think is works best displayed in a horizontal orientation. I'd gladly display it in my house, had you not given it to a girl. Tell her I'll trade her for a pair of shoes. Women love shoes.

I've tried over the years to get it back. Will never happen I'm sorry to say.
