You knew it was gonna happen. it was only gonna be a matter of time until I got back to painting cars and trucks and the like.
I put on a really loose layer to get some base color, and have been slowly adding to this painting. I think I started a week ago, and while waiting for other paintings to dry, or while in between other projects, I put just a touch of paint here and there. I don't know how much time I've got into this, And I don't know how much I have to go. I'm gonna keep on pecking away at it and we'll see how it goes. For now, it's still a work in progress. enjoy.

Another One??? Really??

To be honest, I'm not completely sure what car this is, but I'm sure its pretty old. Its got a lot of weeds growing around it, and it looks like one of its tires has fallen off. It's got a yellow license plate, obviously out of date. Hmmm who could have had yellow plates back in the day? Well, it really doesn't matter. The car has found a nice home under an old tree. Hope nobody totally forgets about this old car.
This one, and yesterdays, are the first old cars I have really done with any color (other than rust). It got me thinking, how come I don't see more color on old cars. After doing a little research I found that most cars like the ones I paint have a fair amount of paint on them. I've just been so focused on the rust, I neglected to see it. So, from now on, when I paint an old car or truck, I'm gonna do a better job of incorporating some of the cars paint. That doen't mean there wont be a fair amount of rust, but there is definately gonna be a bit more color.
Hope you enjoy this little painting. I had a ball painting it.
