This bit below is'nt mine??? :?
Some one must have done a 'quote' within my section..er..somehow??
Sounds like it might be yours, Blacky??
:?

I would say its about A3 size , and A1 in execution :D :D :D :D
A mate of mine is an artist and he spent about 15 minutes staring at it all the while saying "the amount of detail in this is incredible" , pointing out stuff like blades of grass in the reflection of the grass in the bumpers , etc.


It is truly an incredible piece of work.

Just before I wrapped the painting to go over to Blacky I scanned it. Here it is.

Thanks guys for the comments. I think most of us are talented in a few areas. Some guys on this forum do incredible engineering on their cars and others do nice body work. Some people can make nice music, while I have as much rythem as a retarded bullfrog!!

Scotty it was done to A3 size. I hate having to lower the resolution of a scan, it ends up so grainy. On my big scan I can zoom right in until the front wheel fills the screen and even see one or two tiny pencil marks where I laid out the tread pattern and it is still clear. But this should give a good idea. I should snip out one or two areas of detail at a reasonable size and put them on the forum.
