1955 Chevrolet Belair

I was watching today this movie called two-lane blacktops! It seems to be really great movie for fifties and muscle car fans! Because of this movie I planned to paint today the main car of the movie! 1955 Chevrolet, its not my favorite car but its still so cool and fits right into this blog.

took me about 35mins and I tryed to make somekinda enviroment also.

Hello, Im Johnny Cash

I was listening Johnny Cash on youtube and in one of those videos was really nice photo of hem. So I tryed to make fast sketch of it. Not so much look alike but was nice and fast to paint!

About 20 minutes.

1960 Cadillac Deville

Ok one more time this 1960 Cadillac! Its my biggest dream ever! I made new blog for getting my dream come true and I had to paint logo(header) for it.

Its right now 2:30 AM and im still painting. I just love summer and free time. I just wish someday, hopefully next summer I could have my own 1960 Cadillac. Convertible would be the coolest but they might too expensive for me. Coupe and flattop are also so amazing.

It would be so nice to drive to dance pavillion with this kind of Cadillac and listening fifties doowop rock `n roll music on the trip there. :)

1960 Plymouth Belvedere

Here is the one of the coolest plymouth ever made (in my opition ofcourse)! It would be so cool to own this kind of 1960 Plymouth with 255 slantsix engine and automatic transmission!

Fast cadillac painting before sleep

Should use more time but im so tired right now. Time used about 25mins.

Whitewall tires painting

I have problem with car tires.. they allways looks awful in my paintings. So today just little practise to even little better tires. Well, atleast little improvement maybe.

About 12mins.

Back in business

I just came back from my "holiday" trip from Poland and starting sketching again. Something new maybe tomorrow. I was thinking to start practising paint/sketch whitewall tires becouse they are really hard for me right now. So starting with basic forms or something.
