No. I haven't done anything in years. Not enough time.

Thanks. It's been years since I've looked at it.

Looks like an Austin A105. My first car.

I still have most of this stuff in boxes in the garage. If anyone wants to drop by and look through the boxes I am sure we can come to an agreement on price. The weathershield, shocks, hubcap, clutch and brake reservoirs are still there as well as a bunch of other bits. I am in Coolum Beach (Sunshine Coast, Queensland), so if you are in the area - 0419 259 772.

Hey All. Still kicking around. I haven't done any drawing or painting for the past couple of years, so ....... this painting hasn't gone any further.

All the best to everyone.

Thank you. I have put it away for a while and am working on some other things so it may be some time before I finish it.

Thanks.

This is an oil on canvas board painting.

Hey all,
Still alive and kicking. I have not finished the painting yet but have made a few changes.

I happen to have one handy, I don't know what make it is.



It is 355mm high at the front, 360mm high at the rear and 510mm wide. Hope this helps.

Instead of the girl, what about a dog cocking his leg on the front tyre?

I appreciate the input and comments from everyone. We all look at things differently and I can use all the help I can get.
The girl does need to be in shadow, I would have taken care of that once I was happy with the way she looked. But.......
Since I don't like her - she is going to be painted over.

The dog idea may be in, but I am going to try something else first

Once again, thanks.
Mike

Thanks All

Like I said, I think it is time to put the painting away and have a break. I will have another go at it in a couple of months.

Mike

Hey all

This is going to be the last post on this one for a while. I changed the girl again and I am still not the least bit happy with it.



This girl is coming out and I will find another one to put in. I am moving to Queensland next month and I have a great niece who is 3 years old.
Maybe I can get her to pose. Maybe.

Take Care
Mike

Those dirty little.....................
So that's what they were doing when I wasn't there.

I'm packing up the left over bits of the car I sold and I am coming across things I didn't even know I had. Such as these five fuel caps. I didn't buy them or have them given to me. They must have come with the car, but for the life of me I don't remember seeing that many. Is this what old age is, constant suprises?
I can understand those of you who have had many cars over the years having a lot of parts kicking around, but this was my one and only, and I didn't really have it that long. It is amazing at how fast these things can accumulate.



Back to packing everything up.

Happy Australia Day

Mike

Thanks.
A little bit sorry, but there is always a chance of another one in the future.

This is what happens when you wake up a 3:00 A.M. every morning. You gotta do something to fill in the time before work.
