Well, I went to the car show today and here are some pics I took of the Z.

 

That first car looks crazy! It's not really my thing, but in an odd way I like it. Very nice airbrushing skills displayed there. Those are some nice wheels on the first Z too.

The black Z with the gold rims, Volks I believe, looks sharp.

 

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

Cars are not a canvas for artwork!

The Z in and of itself is a spectacular piece of sculpture. Brushing on a lady looking at you from the hood is fugly. Looks like outstanding work, but still doesn't belong on a beautiful car such as a 350.

Ug.

 

I've never been a fan for airbrushing like that. Props for the effort put into it but that kind of stuff just doesn't belong on cars.

The black one with those wheels looks hot thought, slightly tinted as well from what it looks like. I like

 

that's the Volk te-37's in Bronze. it has a drop kit on the car also.

 

btw, someone does a lot of shaking when they're taking their pictures.

 

I'm not sure if you know... But on the black car, what kind of "drop kit" was used (how much lower was it) and what size tires were one those 19 inch volks

 

Wow... I never realized how huge the 19" TE37's are!

 

MY EYES, MY BLOODY EYES!!

 

beats me. looks like a good inch. JIL coilovers. or maybe just Eibachs... Greddy makes coilovers for it also.

 

The truth of the matter is that cars ARE a canvas for artwork, and the proof of this is the first pic in this thread, and multiple pics throughout this forum. Some artwork might be applied with an airbrush, other artwork by bolting on devices, such as skirts, spoilers, wheels, etc.

I can understand that the majority of us would not do anything as dramatic as this to our Z's as Noah as done to this Z. However, I'd be hopefull that if any of us had the privilage of seeing this particular paint job in person, we would be impressed with the skills it took to accomplish it, admire the beauty of it, and thank the artist for having shared it with us.

Like you said, the Z is a beautiful piece of art in and of itself. But many artists see it is a blank canvas, uncluttered, and a perfect 'canvas' for them to express themselves, much like a piece of marble, or some driftwood, or a house, or a car, or even their bicep.

Let the artist determine his canvas.

peace.

 

It was the first time with the camera and I was having trouble with the Apature settings. The colored Z was Modern Image.

 

It's always hilarious when the links get changed to something else...
