Omgzogmzogmzzzz.. I'm soo excited! All my summer's wages down the drain in one fell swoop! Now I can't be entirely excited yet, because it doesn't exactly run yet, but then again what good project does run? I mean where's the fun in that?
This morning I woke up at 8 for no reason and did this while waiting for the tow guy.
I think this might be my most matte-painterly-painting yet. 3d models were used for the big and small guns, photos cobbled together for texture, anti-aircraft smoke, terrain and sky. I'm happy with the end result, really enjoyed taking my time with this one, and trying to get a sense of HUGE with this ship.
So today Jason and I drove all the way across the great big boring everglades, to Cape Coral, FL to see this car. It has potential. Owner and I agreed on a decent price. This hunk of junk very well could be in my driveway next weekend, oh noes!!!
"30 year old cars are like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."
I did as much as I could, tested compression, floorboards, framerails, started the car on starter fluid, etc. It's gonna need alot of work to be decent.
Anyways, buddy Jason took some crazy stormy sunset everglades pictures on the way back (I75 otherwise known as Alligator Alley looks like the pictures for 100ish miles straight)
ahh yes good old forwarded email jokes, courtesy of my dad
