Description A wild fun experiment to walk on the shoulders of the greats who came before me. I remember owning "Big Daddy" Roth model kits as a kid. I am a huge fan of his work as well as Ed "Newt" Newton. And while I am at it let us not forget Basil Wolverton and his grotesque but great creations.

I decided to go with a Fast and Furious take on the art style and incorporate a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 8.

I am planning to do some more of these "Kreepy Kustoms"

Stay Tuned

Cheers
Grimbro

Great work man, but I think a more cartoony and old-fashion car would've worked better for Franky.

Grimbro In reply to Thanato5 [2007-04-09 14:48:18 +0000 UTC]

Hey thanks man!

Yea the big experiment here is can the Tuner/Exotic cars of today translate well to the art style. I think it can but I feel I missed the mark a bit. Looking at it finished I should have pushed the caricature of the car more. Considering its my 1st time painting a car. I can see now that my concern about it looking like a car hurt me over all. But I think it's a good start. Look forward to doing more

Thanks again

you're welcome

ahh.. I agree, i think you can also.. and i definately agree with you on the "characture" would have helped it more. but again.. like you say.. it's the first one, you did a damned fine job.. yeah, i can't wait either.. you should do a 32 ford rat-rod with flames next

Since it's an experiment, I'll spare you my critical thoughts Experiments are always fun, I've made a few of them recently and I really like the outcome. I can only imagine you feeling the same way with this drawing

Ok thats fair, I look foward to your more critical thoughts on the upcoming Kreepy Kustom pieces I will be posting.

And yes I did really like the outcome.
