hours to complete. It’s definitely very difficult and very
time consuming so it really
just depends on how much
free time I have to determine
how much time to spend on
it. And it very much varies on
my travel schedule. The Lord
of the Rings car I just did in the
mornings before I went to Tattoo so I would actually wake
up at 7 in the morning and start
painting by 7:30 so that I could
go to work by noon. The Star
Wars truck I actually took off
an entire month for which was
actually kind of frustrating and
a relief at the same time. It was
nice to not have anything to
worry about but at the same
time it also felt like I was really
trying to meet this deadline
instead of painting on my free
time because I enjoyed it.
Have you painted any
other types of vehicles
(Motorcycles, Boats,
Tanks etc) and if not any
plans to?
Yes I painted a bunch of motorcycle helmets and motorcycles
but I tend to turn more commissions down that I actually do
because of my previous commitment to tattooing. It gets to
be very hard to find the free
time to do commissions for other people. I tend to like to stick
to tattooing more than painting
for commission because it does
