    Also, I can probably make these look a bit more hand drawn, let me know what kind of look you want on the finished product. I'll probably do several versions of each.

    That's cool, I may take you up on your offer. Looks like your a little swamped now.

    I'm going to pick at these the best I can. It shouldn't take me long to turn them out. The only hard part is removing the cars from their backgrounds, which must be done because I drop all color values (black and white) and then re-color them by hand. I wasn't expecting people to be so impressed with it, but I'm definately flattered now.

    Ah! Mavaholic, you beat me to it. Yes, I have considered charging for these, but don't worry, if you were in before this message, we'll figure out a discount. I need to sit down and think about it because I find myself wanting to spend more time on each to make them perfect.

    maverick1970: I worked my 12.5 hour shift like any other one. There were some terrible customers and employees alike, but that's every year. I fractured my left radius during a judo practice a month ago, I have the cast on until Dec 14th so that slowded me down a bit, thanks for asking


    Speaking of retail (ha) What would you guys be interested in paying for one of these, right off hand. I know of some places where I could print them on canvas paper and have them framed, etc. Or just as an image file for you to have and use as you like.

    Here's a comparison of Craig's father's F-100 and my image.

    It'll take me a couple of days to get through a few more, right now I'm currently stuck on the Sprint, white cars are really hard to do in this process. I will do each and every one of them though.

    NOTE: This is not a completed image, hence the big "Under Construction" Just a little teaser on the Sprint, what do you guys think? I had to add the black outline to the roof to make it stand out again, does it look ok?

    Looking good to me, but then, I'm a little biased. Its kinda hard to tell but it looks as though you lost the red pin strip down the side.
