Yeah, not bad


Have you looked into scholarships/sponsorships ?
Can you do distance courses for this kind of stuff? (OU)

Such a shame to see such talent go to waste (I use the term loosely!)

It might be 3-5 years of hard slog, but if that was where you really wanted to go..........

With the best will in the world, s*d everybody on here, look out for number one.
You clearly have a talent (assuming you didn't use a sketch-a-graph )

i honestly dont have any idea about a scholarship. never really thought about it.

i dont think i use graphs, my system is a set of squares that allow me to scale up or down appreopriatley using some simple maths. as said i only really use a ruler for measurements, like to draw all the lines freehand.

why they take so bloody long, but its nice knowing that people appreciate the hours that go in.


Andy..

thanx for that. yeah i had my disciplinary today regards discussing the accident. i have a feeling as it was adjurned until monday that i will either get severely repremanded, or indeed get the sack. they have tried to twist around everything against me from being aware of my surroundings, to my speed on the truck, from accepting spillages as an accepted occupational hazard (yeah seriously they said that) to why i decided to apparantley break regulations by moving my truck a couple metres for an impatient polishman witness (who in turn compiled a fully false statement against me to cover his eastern european ****).

but............

this thread isnt about that. if you wanna email me, il add you to the list, but il even admit im shocked by all the positive feedback and interest in coimmission i have recieved...

Andy

personally I think you are wasted in the job you have been doing

You should seriously try and get a decent job using your real skills, there must be people crying out for your talent

I definately still want my car doing, just been too busy to decide what size lol you already have the pic I want doing, but appreciate now you have a large list and i will be somewhat low down in the queue


As a side, have you thought about having prints made of some of your work, and flogging them on ebay?

i havent a digital camera to take good pictures of the work i do, and its also a copywrite thing too. some members on here may prefer theyre cars to be one offs, and not see £10 prints selling on ebay...

you see i generally do commission, which is draw as people ask you too. i sometimes do little instinctive things, but i always copy so to speak from another piccy, so dont know how the infringement laws work on that one.

little update, nick has had his canvas piece framed, and the guy who owns the company he went to (a mate of his' father) wants me to do his lambo diablo... could be a 'practical payment' not a cash payment here me thinks

anyway, i hope he doesnt mind me popping up finished pics of it framed in here. just wondered what you all think
