Two hullava cool vans and a Trans Am
So the votes are finally in and tallied. We have the three pop culture vehicles that will be featured in the follow up to the most awesome garage in the world illustration .
The van from The A-Team
The Mystery Machine from Scooby Doo
KITT from Knight Rider
I was not so secretly hoping that the Light Bike from Tron would get a look in but it wasn’t meant to be and I am of …
A while ago I did the illustration above, the most awesome garage in the world. I stand by my choices in this piece, these are the three cars I would most love to have sitting in my backyard and I’m pretty awesome so I know this stuff.
Of course some of you felt that there weren’t enough bays in our awesome garage (one of you also made a groan worthy joke about the garage itself being fairly ordinary but the cars being awesome…). So I’m going back into the pop culture auto industry and letting you guys nominate and ultimately vote on the next three cars to go into the awesome’st garage part two.
Now I’ve got some suggestions of my own to get you rolling:
- The Gadget Mobile (car mode)
- Any vehicle from MASK
- The 60′s Batmobile
- The Galileo shuttle craft from Star Trek (whatever, it would fit in a garage)
- The A-Team van
- The Star Car from The Last Starfighter
- Light bike from Tron
- KITT (though it would be boring to draw… shut up, don’t judge me)
Well that should have gotten you thinking and since I know you guys are all very clever and knowledgeable in the art of popular culture I expect some out of left field suggestions in the comments. I would also love to see some new names in the comments, time to come out of the shadows and be embraced by the Quit Your Day Job community!
When I’ve got a healthy list I’ll cross off any I don’t think I’ll be able to draw (fair go) and then offer the rest up for you to vote for in a poll!
Be a part of awesomeness, tell your readers and friends and that shady guy down the street who smells like wet carpet… actually don’t bother telling him.
Now speaking of awesomeness I had two awesome ideas today that made a little bit of stardust seep out of my left ear out of sheer bloody amazingness. The rough pencil thumb guide is up at my Posterous site for the first idea and the second will take a little bit of time but involves two characters from the Goodies and Baddies set.
It’s going to be cool.
Get in on the ground floor, share the coolness with others.
Proclaim your commitment to the cool.
Arnold was cool, why don’t you want to be?
I am very happy and excited to announce that my “The First Rule of Bear Fight Club is” has been accepted into Banner Year Press’ Bearfight book and is looking to be published sometime mid April. Of course those who follow me on Twitter will already know because I was very excited about it.
It’s a very cool concept and it has brought Banner Year Press to my attention and after I get my copy of Bearfight I might look to them for some of my other projects I’m slowly building.
I’ll give you the details on how to buy the book when they let me know.
Big congrats go out to Arkonbey and Anthony who are also artists included in the collection!
