The first warm day in the new year I made the voyage back to my favorite lay up again. Feb. 2010. I had some cans of green to burn through and just went with that. I felt a little tiny bit rusty on that first one, but before long the hand un-cramps itself and all is well again.
This was that first one.
It’s been months since I have posted any kind of update, I have no good excuse for this really. So I suppose I’ll be trying to catch up over the next while, try to bring this site back up to date, this post is work from early November, more to come…
Fall colors and early sunset
A mix of Rusto, Krylon and Montana silvers. Tremclad outline. Clearing out the scrap cans
In a fog
These suckers are without a doubt my favorite kind of autorack to paint.
It was so nice and bright that night. The next few pieces you will see uploaded here will be mostly red. I have a huge surplus of reds, blacks and whites. I over budgeted on the Havana Cultura paint order. Lucky for me it’s a favorite color scheme of mine.
I need to bring the weed whacker next time.
This deserves a caption of some form I just cant think of what to say about it really.
I was happy to catch this ‘06 Jero on the line. This guy used to paint tons of freights when i started out.
I’m not super crazy about this one, I pulled it off real quick with ‘Painter’s touch’ as I was being filmed and interviewed for a documentary. I’m a bit rusty without my fancy euro brands of paint now.
A dedication. Rest in peace Abby.
These sketches are for an upcoming project I’m starting soon..
