Hey all, I've been working on some 240 art and I'd thought I'd share.

I haven't been working in this style for to long. But when I stumbled apon it I really liked it, and thought it was perfect for some car art. Possibly for a T-Shirt or Poster.

Here is my Fav.

Another.

My most recent, This is Lucky7's car. He's got some awsome shots of it.

Sorry so S13s yet. I need some good pics to work from! Preferably 3/4 shots like the first one. Those work the best. So post some and I'll see what I can do.

Adobe Illistrator, some Photoshop. It's all Vector art. I just start from a photo, cut it out. Clean it up. Convert it to a vector graphic and work from their.

I can try. It will depend of the quality of the pic. Most important is the angle and composition of the shot. I don't need a high rez pic nessisaraly but it helps. Oh and you see how the wheel is turned in the first 2 pics... Yeah that adds alot.

Drop a pic of your Zenki and I'll see what I can do! As far as the t-shirts, I'm working on it. I'll prob set up a CafePress site or something. Unless someone on here has a screenprinter at home?

Just email your pics to me if you don't want to post them.

i got some pics, but mine is a coupe so somone should post a hatch. and pignose coupe and pignose hatch. s13's rule! I guess if you want u can chop down some of the height of the car, and get rid of the plates.





and if u can put the rear in a pic since its a coupe, and coupes rule.

Sweet! I'll see what I can do. Give me a few days, It looks simple but it takes some time.

S14SRPilot's will be easy. As will TJG's roadrunner. Scuffed.... the second pic maybe... It would be better if you shot in a more open area. Be aware of what is reflected in the paint. An open parking lot or just your street is good. But I'll see what I can do!

If you guys really wants these as shirts (i know i do) before dragonboy gets his account set up, and of course with his permission, this site will let you make one offs or a bunch of shirts pretty cheaply.http://www.uberprints.com go there, select the kind of t-shirt, or whatever it is you want, and then it lets you create the shirt. i was going to order some a while back but never did, pretty cool though
