Vulgalour Arts - Commissions OPEN and a Vauxhall Tigra Prints and Original

[Noel Tidybeard]

most excellent i would guess

[vulgalour]

It would be well suited as it's got lots of contrast going on as standard.  Drop me a PM, we can talk shop

Had my picture framed, put it up on the wall. Austin badge colors

Because I'm a massive skinflint, I waited until my mate got married and I went to the reception to give him both a wedding present, and the DeLorean that Vulg had done for me to give him as a birthday pressie.

(It needed to go to Aylesbury, and I was concerned that it'd get smashed in the post or summat)

 

I did explain that this was a birthday present, and a thank you for helping me out at work, but he insisted on opening it there and then. He fucking loved it and insisted on putting it on the table with all the other wedding stuff.

 

[vulgalour]

I missed that post!  That's a brilliant little story, proper put a grin on my face has that.

[vulgalour]

I've been flat out with work and a bad back lately so there's not been much by way of updates here.  Here, however, is a commission that I've done for PhilA's parental unit of the Sprite you've seen earlier in this thread.

 

Normally my work is standard paper sizes, most often A4, but this one is different, it's square.  There's a lot of nostalgia and happiness gone into this with inspiration from Phil's descriptions of family trips and 35mm Cinefilm pictures and movies.  Primarily completed in watercolour and ink outlining, it has some coloured ink additions to make the autumnal colours pop out vibrantly.

Postcard commissions, A6 in size, are now available.

 

For one like this, with a background, it's just £15

 

Without a background, it's just £10.

 

I'll be making some ready-made ones to sell at the same price today so there'll be more examples.  Price includes postage.  Just drop me a message if you'd like one and there may be enough time to get them before Christmas.

[vulgalour]

Here's an original Postcard art up for grabs at £15 (inc. postage) of a Renault 6 (not my Renault 6) doing silly cornering things.  This is A6 in size

 

 

Send me a message if you'd like to buy it, or for any commission enquiries.

[tonedepear]

Late to the party but these are fuggin ace!

Nice work sir.

[vulgalour]

Glad you think so

 

Old jokes are the best jokes, don't you think?

 

 

Ford Pinto.  This is available for £10 GBP and serves as a great example of what you get if you order a Postcard without a background.

[fordperv]

yep i remember laughing my head off when i saw this picture

 

[vulgalour]

^ That was my main reference.

[worldofceri]

Haha! Not seen that before. Brilliant!

[omegod]

Has the A/S bike Rover 220 SLI been done yet ? I'm tempted 

[vulgalour]

It has not and I would be open to creating that.

[vulgalour]

For shiter ToneDePear, a pair of original postcards of a Damson coloured TR6.  You can tell they're both originals rather than reprints as they're ever so slightly different from one another.

 

[tonedepear]

Arrived safely. Wonderful. Thank you so much.  

[vulgalour]

Glad to hear it

I recently bought a digital tablet so there's a possibility that I'll be doing digital auto art in 2017 alongside the traditional media stuff.  I just have to learn how to use the tablet to its best advantage.

[vulgalour]

I'm back after a lovely holiday with my other half.  It was really good to get away.  While I was away I took my new digital tablet with me so I could learn how to use the thing without the pressure of work and just have some fun with it.  Turns out, it's not too difficult to get the hang of though it is considerably more time consuming than traditional media while I get the hang of controls and textures and all that.

 

The first automotive thing I completed is an early 60s Thunderbird which will be available in printed format later this month.

 

 

The other is a bit of an experiment and currently unfinished.  One big advantage with digital is that I can modify a basic image to personalise it.  I picked on a Ford Capri and am building a set of accessories that can be added, removed, recoloured, etc. to see what is and isn't possible.  In theory, this is a potentially very affordable way to commission a piece with me creating just the elements that make your car yours, such as rust spots, spoilers, different wheels, graphics, etc. in a way I can't with traditional.  I may also offer a build-a-car sort of thing in the future where you can commission a base model and particular options I then create for it.  We'll see how we go.  For now, here's the beige version.

 

I need to have some more practice doing digital automotive art before I set the prices, currently it feels cost-prohibitive given the amount of time it's taken me as I get used to the tools, but it's something I will be offering this year.

[Pillock]

Absolutely loving the digital stuff!

Now LIVE on my RedBubble print shop.  You can get mugs and tee-shirts and acrylic blocks and clocks even with these on.  Check it out: http://www.redbubble.com/people/angylroper/collections/641981-ford?asc=u

Made a start on the Corvette I did a Twitter poll for back in July last year.  Going to try and put some colouring theory into practice on this one too, see if I can get the end product to look that bit better.

 

[scaryoldcortina]

Nice! The capri has a sort of 1978 AA Book of the road feel to it....

 

 

Conor says you can show everyone his pic. He even asked if it would be wierd to get it done as a tattoo (I said yes, it would be wierd, don't do that.)

[Essex V6]

Absolutely love the Capri Vulg - top drawer!

[vulgalour]

Ah, Connor's pic, it is amazing if I do say so myself and was a lot of fun to work on!

 

 

And yes, getting it as a tattoo would be totally odd but then what tattoos aren't?  Flattering that he'd consider having my artwork on his skin FOREVER though.

[steveo3002]

dare i say this in a nice way....why are the number plates so wonky ?  would annoy me the letters dont look straight /right

[DodgeRover]

I really like those digital ones, can you PM me a price for you doing a LWB Mk2 phase 2 transit one?

[vulgalour]

steve:  Constructive criticism is fine  Getting number plate digits perfectly even at this scale is incredibly difficult, at least for me, even with lots of guidelines.  Digital allows me to sort that particular issue out.

 

DodgeRover: PM incoming

2016 saw the BRG E-Type be my best seller over on my RedBubble print shop: http://www.redbubble.com/people/angylroper

 

As I get more things completed and on there, it'll be interesting to see what does well in 2017.
