Jay, I need to start getting up to Tucson a bit more and hopefully see some of your work in person. Talented folks like you blow me away (I have a hard enough time just doing a two tone).

Mike, Anytime you are coming, just let me know, and if I can break away at all, I'd be glad to visit. If it doesn't work out, I'll see you at SIR sometime, for sure!

It is not a glamorous business, until you are standing in the middle of a car show! The rest is dust, fumes, and sore fingers. You've just got to be a masochist.......but you paint, so you already knew that! :-)

They really have a 3D look to them. They look like they have been carved in the metal. As always awesome work!

I've never seen the 3D work so effectively! Flames look to have eaten the body away! Fantastic job.

Thanks, guys. It is not my original idea, but I'll take credit for "executing the job". :-)

It occured to me a few years ago that I am very tired of seeing the same exact art on cars, for the last 50 years.

I believe that you can keep the same traditional designs, but add something to make it have a unique "twist", which will make people remember it longer.

Hotrodpaint---That looks very impressive. You are a talented painter.---Brian

Thats really slick....I'm liking it. Keep up the good work. Bob

If I get enough compliments, I'll have to raise prices! :-)

S-U-Perb!! That 3D effect is very striking; great work.

Here's the finished product. The Kameleon lights up when the light angle is right.

Very nice work! I don't see the cameleon but, I like what I do see. How much time went into this? Keep posting, Steve.

It took about 50 manhours, but on TV they can do it in under 60 minutes! :-)

No question about the man hours. That reeks of one helluva lot of time and patience. One of the sweetest flame jobs I have seen.

Extreme Work!! Great. I wish for a job like it (when I win the lottery). perley

WOW, that looks great HOTRODPAINT. How far is Tuscon from Salt Lake?
