Aloha Chris, appreciate that you are willing to share your experiences with us. We/I can't do this alone without outside inspiration and motivation. Its strength sometimes to pick up the brush and humiliate yourself for the umpteenth time. Practice, practice, practice.
That is some amazing work, true art. I always wanted to learn how to do pinstripe, never really had the time to really sit down and learn it, to many other projects in life, someday maybe
Great story and inspiring. I’m an aspiring artist and watched so many pin striping videos here lately. I am so tired of the corporate world telling me what to believe in. I decided to venture on my doing hand painted signs and I ordered my first kit of pin striping tools. About to get started doing this. Thank you for sharing this
I’ve just seen this…on my 76 th. Birthday..what a gift for me to inspire people such as yourself in a great art form,that will support you and family for a lifetime! If I can ever help you ,if you have questions about selling your work ,or anything I can help you to enhance your experience, just ask, thanks
@@paulgomez7573 I’ve got about 20 new ones this year. I’m realizing that I don’t know enough about them to have a favorite. I’ve done a bunch of videos on the new ones, each one does something slightly different.
And the whiskey thing is not only for stripers. It’s body men too😂 I’m a auto body guy out of Arkansas and I’ve been asked my profession and after asking about my drink of choice 🤦🏻♂️ like no not all painters or body men are alcoholics that’s a urban myth…to some people 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for this video, I'll be 53 this year and I have been fascinated by pinstripes on cars since I was a kid. About 4 years ago I bought the brushes and paints, I messed around for a month or so and would get frustrated. I recently pulled everything back out and I keep telling myself PRACTICE everyday and it will turn into something! I'm going to figure out how to trace a design and follow the lines, I've been searching for a video but I haven't found one yet. Very inspiring video. Thank you.
First car show for me, was a charity event with a whos who of east coast painters. I was having panic attacks. Jack the Italian was who pulled me aside. Gave me a pep talk. Spent the next yr building my skills and confidence. His talk was huge for me and my growth
Old retired bucket lister here that jumped head first into the world of striping, lettering, leafing. Not in it for $ but have done a few trophies and things for cash. Just like to stand back and say ok, didn't have do that one over. I think how you used a template to rough out your design will help me to stop wasting materials. Nice video. Good day. 🇺🇲🍺
Very inspirational, fantastic work brother I’ve been learning custom paint over the last year, painted my Harley and I love it I have a lot of fun doing it!👍😎
Awesome work! I can relate to alot that you said. I've been airbrushing for about 15 years and just recently picked up a pinstriping brush. I'm having an easier time with scrolling style. Thank you for your time to make these videos. It's really encouraging to watch!

I’ve failed more than once. I failed twice today actually. Some new brushes have a way of making you feel like a rookie.
What a great story. Keep up the beautiful painting.
That's it. Im goin to the shop and loading a brush. Thanks for the inspiration to try, again!
Yes yes and more yes. Do it!

I have an Etsy. I just haven’t done much with it since I setup some merch items.
You make this look so freaking easy, and it's not!
Thank you. It’s been a fun ride.
Normal family you say no one's family is normal🤣

I do my best. Thank you.

The best thing I can tell you, just paint. If it doesn’t work, try a different way.
Just subscribed, thankyou watching this video was what I needed to see. I'm getting a new brush wet thanks
Dude you did that like a Pro, Oh wait you are a Pro! Excellent!😎

Jack is a good guy. He’s been at a few shows at Rat Fink HQ.
Thanks man! Been a little discouraged lately. Haven’t gotten to paint much.
I keep going back and fourth about that. I have to keep myself in check and that’s not easy.
Enjoyed your story Chris. You encouraged this 67 yr old to pursue what you love, while you can.❤
Get to work then. You deserve to be happy.
@@Blohme_official LOL. Thx I just might do that
Thnx dude. I really needed to hear this today
You are amazing! Thank you for showing me the ropes. We still need a bingo card 😂
Oh the bingo card. I forgot, I’ll get on it.
I'm a sucker for a good origin story. And this was a good one.
I didn’t get super powers though. Well, kind of.

I’m the same as you!

It’s more fun than any of us care to admit.
@@Blohme_official
If I could retire from driving trucks and paint bikes from now on I could die happy and never work another day in my life💯😎
Can you share where you found the stencil?
This one is pretty old, but there are newer ones.
Very cool!
Thank you.
Love this story cupcake...
I’m pretty sure you heard it in person.
@Blohme_official yes I have my friend, I love how you told the story in the video. ❤️
What kind of brush is that ,if i may ask
I use quite a few. Most days these are either Mack Peewee’s or Vondago sabers.
@@Blohme_official thx I appreciate it

I’m getting ready to film some informative videos on the different brushes. Maybe it can help.
