  • Greenbay Packers, The End Of The Series

    I had planned to make a custom of every NFL team, I finished the The Bengals, Dolphins & this one, then got bored and moved on, Looking back, this may have been the first time I tried to cover the whole car with a decal. The fire graphics are all my design. I really like…

  • Don’t Drive A Torino On A Dirt Road,

    I really like the diorama shown in these pics more so than the car. I don’t usually use aging pigments or try to make my customs look old or worn. I’ve never figured out how to seal the pigment dust without making the dust look lousy or darker. I’m sure there is a way to…

  • A Quartet of Randomness.

    Some prices I don’t think I’ve shown here before. These all have in common that they were experiments, early in my custom making journey. For a long time, I didn’t have any way of making decals or water slide transfers that were complicated or wrapped the entire casting. I’ve since found ways to make white…

  • Skull Torinos.

    I showed one of these off already, but don’t temper which one. I also have no memory of making two designs so similar to each other! The skull designs sell well, I could just make these and be pretty happy.

  • Rawarrrrr…Torino!

    An example of a happy accident. The original template was way too big, so my graphics were all over the place and didn’t fit as planned. Some repositioning later, things worked out.

  • OSUIT Holiday Car

    I’ve mentioned before that I make personalized customs for friends and coworkers for Christmas. I also make an edition for the campus, usually 6-10 prices in the edition, and usually these cars are focused on the years events and happening at the campus. I work at a satellite campus of Oklahoma State University, if I…

  • Within Temptation.

    I’ve shown this Within Temptation Panel before, but these are better pics. Is one of my top ten favorites I’ve done. The photos aren’t mine obviously, I played with the colors to get to this orange and yellow color combo. This is also one of my favorite castings to work with, but these are hard…

  • SRT: Sasquatch Research Team.

    I put way more work into this design than it looks like. I had a lot of ideas to put flames on the hood and a bunch of ads on the sides. All that is there, but you’d have to zoom in to see it. The just here is that Sasquatch’s are an invasive species,…

  • Cheetah, Fire, Sponsor…Just Add More, More

    Sometimes you just have to add more…more to a project to get it just right. I think this one was a combination of all the leftover tampons, paint and decals form a weeks worth of projects. All that and I didn’t even cover the roof!

  • Apocalyptic Road Burner. Car Washes Are Not Part Of The Future.

    Has this one made an appearance on the site yet? Probably, but I think these are better pics, so a few things I can share about this one: Nylon screen door fabric makes for great faux steel mesh windows. Get yourself a set of specialized wire bending pliers to make metal exhaust, other wise you’ll…
