Vulgalour Arts - VW Beetle Sketch

[vulgalour]

Zaporozhets for you all to enjoy now that I'm safe to post it.  Really enjoyed working on this one even with the challenge of drawing a car for which I had only a blurry photograph of the numberplate and a written description as reference.  There's a surprising amount of different trim and light treatments on these little cars that I learned about through the process of this commission.

 

Finished picture is A3 and I was delighted to receive a photograph of it framed from the customer.

That is excellent. One of my favourite cars captured really nicely.

When I look at it I see it with the addition of Vladimir Putin stripped to the waist with a salmon in his mouth and a bear in a headlock.

I have finally completed this monster A2 montage commission of an MG and all the trophies the driver has won in it.  This is the largest commission I've done to date and, to be brutally honest, too large for my workspace.  It became something of a battle to get the last details in without damaging it.

 

 

The scan isn't to my liking, it's stitched together from 6 separate scans because of the size of the piece even with me having an A3 scanner.  Fun fact, whatever size a scanner says it is, knock at least 2mm off each edge because for some reason it won't scan those areas.  I have no idea why this is, but all scanners do it.

Especially like the zoom effect on the top left cluster

[vulgalour]

Zoom effect?

 

 

Here's another commission recently completed, this one for shiter Hertz.  A montage of just a selection of his cars with the man himself in the middle.  This one is A3 and the largest I can comfortably work on.

 

[mercrocker]

Like a zoom lens - the effect of flattening perspective..

 

 

[vulgalour]

I understand now.  Hadn't really thought about it until you mentioned it.

[fordperv]

That's a cool montage

[vulgalour]

Can I interest anyone in some Negative Space commissions?  Like this one of a Metro.

 

 

£20 GBP per image

Any vehicle - land, sea, air, the endless unremitting vacuum of space

Any age of vehicle

One vehicle per image (more can be included, but this will push it over the base price)

Payment by Paypal for preference, but you can pay by other methods if you desire, I'll do my best to accomodate.  Payment by cheque does increase the wait time considerably, but is possible.

Postage of the finished article is FREE anywhere in the world

 

Final image is A4 in size and completed on Bristol Board (a kind of really nice paper) mainly in ink.  I can work up to A3 size or to a specific size smaller than this, though that would be priced on a piece-by-piece basis depending on content.

Been meaning to have a go at a marker coloured piece for a while and I've had a Triumph 2000 sketch in my folder that I wasn't sure what to do with, until tonight.

 

 

Original available to purchase for just £30 GBP inc. P&P worldwide.  Give me a shout if you're interested.

Hey Vulg, do you think a negative space of the SL would work??

Yes, there's some really good chunks of the design that would pull out quite nicely like the bonnet vents and headlight outline.  I'd be up for doing one of those.

[Cheggers]

Coolio, you can do that one then. PayPal incoming

[Station]

You have really excellent drawing skills - but the pencils let it down. Marker one looks 100 times better, bin those pencils!!!

 

The subject matter on that collage is excellent, esp the Cavalier!

[vulgalour]

Station:  Thank you  The montage was a lot of fun to work out.  The markers scan better than the pencils and it's a different style.  Markers are more 'modern' looking, more how people expect stuff to look in this digital age.

 

Cheggers:  Payment got with thanks, can you PM me your e-mail and post address please so I can give you updates and post the final version?

[mercrocker]

That Metro NS one is great, amazing how you mind puts the rest of it in there when you look at it. 

 

(I even imagined the rust bubbles....!)

[vulgalour]

Negative Space commission for shiter Cheggers.  I really enjoyed working on this one and would welcome more on the same theme.

 

 

I'd also like to get hold of some good quality coloured paper to experiment with some ideas for 70s cars, so far I've only been able to find rubbish quality coloured paper.

[vulgalour]

Would you believe it, I'm down to my last commission!  I need more work to come in so I can do all those boring bill paying things and the more exciting shite fettling things so here are my prices and what is on offer.  FREE postage of the original artwork worldwide too.

 

 

Sent me a PM if you're interested and we can run through the details.  Remember, I don't just do cars, I can do houses and boats and motorbikes and people and animals and... well, I'll have a go at just about anything.

 

 

[vulgalour]

Two new ones then, the building blocks for the new made-for-print portfolio I'm putting together and will be getting online when I've checked out which sites will work best for me, hopefully some time next week.  Much more mundane than my usual stuff but that's really the point, got to get some mainstream appeal out there.

 

 

 

[fordperv]

That escort works brilliantly, if you could do things like that on a t-shirt I reckon they would sell good as well

[vulgalour]

I'm hoping I can find someone doing tee-shirts in Mexico colours.

[rml2345]

The NS stuff in general would be ace on t-shirts.

Superb art Mr. Roper, you set ever higher standards.

[andy18s]

Agreed,that Escort will fly in the proper colours .

Can you do a Disco 3 in NS?

[purplebargeken]

Just gets better and better. I do like the Jag pic.

 

The Triumph was very Foose-like. Cool.

[plasticvandan]

I have a pile of neg space reliant t shirts that a friend made for me (reminded me of them as I'm wearing one now!) They work well on coloured shirts,equally your mexico pic would look good on orange paper

You have absolutely nailed that Mexico - great stuff!

[Essex V6]

Here is the Capri You did on my garage wall

[vulgalour]

That garage is cleaner than my HOUSE.

Negative Space commission for shiter Phil_A of an Austin Healey Sprite.

Can't wait for the Cavcraft midget one!
