My try at Scroll Striping

[quickchange]

Not sure how well the photos will come out.. but the blue one is the first one and the red is the second..

I had a really fun time with these.. So much so that I will have to do it some more as soon as I get the time. Pinstriping still giving me fits but hey!
lol I did enjoy my fun today.. Had a third photo but it came out REALLY blurry so did not post..
Hope you like them..

Cool Quickchange. Both are very nice. When you do another one and you
accent doing the fades dip brush in pure white. And just dot it. Another
thing I have seen is when after they finish this is to do a slight fade with the airbrush. Just remember when spraying one shot through the air brush to
thin it and use low air pressure as it will float every where. Also I think alot
of these people doing this start with a red, maybe clean the brush and put orange- yellow etc. Its all up to you.
Looks great. I am going to list some stuff under the pinstriping section on books and videos too.

You are rockin' Quickchange

It's just a lot of practice Quickchange & you're doing very well..Pinstriping is like anything else & the more you do of it the better you get..It's easy to tell that you have some familularity with a brush & I imagine this came from your work in porcelain..I never could find a place that paid me for pinstriping so I stick with what pays the bills..It's still fun to mess with though if only for pleasure & a change of pace.. You show so much promise that I'd advise you to stick with it..
It's a little bit (a whole lot) of a mind game..You start to see the brush stroke just ahead of the bristles & with your head & a slight twist between your fingers you can control every hair in the brush..sounds crazy but that's what it is..You should feel very good about your practice..It's a lot easier said than done & you've done a pretty job on both..

You are off to a good start QC. Are us using a Kafka #3 or a Jensen Swirlique? My guess is a Kafka 3, my favorite scroll brush. I used it to do the door I posted. The Kafka scrol brushes really rock! Steve is a great artist and inspired me to do scrolls. After buying his brushes I found myself trying stuff I would never attempt with a Mack 10 sword striper, not to put that brush down, it has a lot of soul and is where it lives for doing ol skool hot rod stripes. Keep posting your work and I'll do the same we can all just get better by sharing. AL
