Painting a Toyota Supra | Acrylic & Airbrush

In this video I'm painting a MK5 Toyota Supra as well as sharing my thoughts on Artwork Style.

Style is an interesting topic- how we find our own style and what influences us is really interesting. I personally follow more portrait and graffiti artists then car artists simply because I want to see and enjoy different artwork. How we each arrive at our style though is a continuous journey and I like to experiment and change things up to see what works and what doesn't.

I love that the dynamic messy part breathes through not only the final piece but also throughout the whole painting process.

That was amazing dude. Great talk and amazing final piece!

Absolutely incredible! From the start to the finish. Fantastic Composition. It looks fast and sleek. The attention to detail where you needed it is perfect. Jealous as! Great stuff!

Hey Chris! I keep commenting how big of a fan I'm off your art and what a huge inspiration it is for me to see you work, but I wanted to add that this kind of video where you give us a bit of insight on your thoughts and your process is amazing and would love to see it explored further in the future!

I totally get when you say how much you plan and how much things just happen, because to me most of the time I start with an idea but later on I feel the illustration is doing itself. Like it speaks to me and tells me where it wants us to go.

I guess that's inspiration 😅

Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing ❤

I love your artwork and I'm currently learning how to paint cars, which your video helps a lot. Was hoping you can paint a vintage Ford Mustang sometime! Would love to see more of your videos!

Im an artist. Glass. When i started i copied a lot of stuff to get comfortable. Found my own way w my focus. I tell ppl who ask how to do most things. Some of my linework (i guess we use the same jargon) i dont let go yet taken 4 years to understand but, most things: abcxyz. Im gonna use some ai created images, project em up on a canvas and deconstruct em. Get the idea in but like in a dream. If that makes sence. Hard for me to take an idea from my head to paper cuz im not the fastest drawer or i get dustracted. Using ai ti get the idea on paper and refining it... lol plus i get to stick it to the machines. Love the piece man.

I don't know how you did it, but you managed to make an ugly car look good. Amazing!

Hey! Question for you. If I remember correctly, there was a couple videos you had posted earlier, one was the VW bug front fender shot. The VW had almost a rainbow effect in it's colour. The other one was the '55 gasser black and grey (drippy looking) painting. Did you take them down? I was hoping to see them again.

Awesome. I liked how you could wipe away the paint early on, did you use any thinner on the rag? I use that technique with oils, but when I've tried that with acrylic the paint dries so fast, I end up doing 'messy' around the subject area to keep it clean. Doesn't look as free & loose.
Have you ever tried using liquitex through the micron?

Hey Chris,

What brand /size brush do you prefer/ is you're go to?
