Title: Van mural feedback.
Post by: Brett on August 22, 2008, 02:26:22 AM: Are barbarians with axes the ultimate mural on a panel van or is it spaceships. Flames or dragons? Ghost flames or skulls on fire? And no theres nothing wrong with flowers on a green background...sob
Is there a Frazzeta pic that hasnt been done...and WHY NOT!?!

Post by: Tiger on May 05, 2009, 09:00:12 PM: My mate always wanted to have a Red Sonja pic (female Conan with red hair) with a couple of barbarians kneeling at her feet on a van. A reverse of the Male Barbarian traditional murals. He almost convinced me to let him do one on my old XF panel van. Almost.

When I was young I bought an English A3 sized fantasy magazine that had a picture of a mad demon on a wild horse riding through a scary forest. I always wanted that on avan but never got it.

I still have it satashed somewhere and one day...

For anyone interested in airbrushing I found the following DVDs and ebook available for download:

Post by: Brett on May 06, 2009, 08:34:34 PM: Ive been looking for that first book. Should have stole it from the library when I had the chance.
Since I posted this topic, I have a folder fillied with photoshoped murals on my beddie. I still havent settled on anything. But red sonja WOULD be good.

There are a lot of ebooks that I have found that are no longer in print. Now I actually prefer them to silverfish food.
I am currently downloading the videos as well.

Post by: Bedfordcrazy on January 25, 2011, 09:54:39 AM: Hey brett found your album. Am i correct, that you do airbrushing, if so, at sometime down the track we might catch up and you can look at airbrushing my van. B4 that though i need to find a new sheetmetal guy, i am dreading having to ring the old metal guy back up to finish what he started.

Post by: petrolhead on June 04, 2011, 09:01:41 AM: A bit "gay" don't you think?

Post by: Jeff on June 04, 2011, 09:16:22 AM: This is particularly good I think.
It has movement, and the wings look big enough to do the job. The woman adds another mythic/sexual dimension too.
I really like this one. Thanks Griff.
I printed this in grey scale and the detail that emerged is amazing, and the tones balanced much better into a moonlight scene.
