I've started a new post as the original was getting too big and now more than ever I need to do more paintings. The gearbox is fixed which was all I thought I need to do to get the mini on the road, but now I'm doing an engine freshen up while it's out. :evil:
So I need some takers or, I need the names of other car forums that I can advertise on.

Anybody?
How about you mini parts suppliers, a painting for parts?

Here's the minis that have been captured in oil so far...

There bloody good paintings they look better than the originals, and are really good price for their quality as well. Sounds tempting I tell you! :)

Try some of the more upmarket cars (those with $$$$$$)
such as the various jag sites or http://www.landsharkoz.com/

Sumanovic,

The going rate is $250 for a 500mm x 400mm canvas.

You'd better ask Emmeline, if you'd like her car on your wall.
You might be able to get a photo of her painting of 'Betty' printed and framed.

What sort of painting are you into?
I started painting about 2 years ago mainly doing landscapes and portraits.
The mini painting came about as a way of earning extra funds to get my mini on the road. :)

Sadly Emm I'm not painting anyone's mini at the moment. :cry:
Have you had Betty framed yet?

I'm trying some other car forums.

Sumanovic let me know which way you want to go. :wink:
