My First Mechanical Drawing And Painting

First Step

I was procrastinated all morning because I was afraid to lay the first layer of paint down. I've never drawn or painted a car before. Finally I got my paint out, laid my palette out, formatted my battle plan, got my brushes out, and started with the car first, ground second, sky third. Now I'm waiting for the paper to dry and I'll start on the buildings.

I thought of my Father throughout the first layer of paint. He died when I was 5 years old back in 1965, 29 years old, a Captain in the Air Force, he loved flying jets and driving fast cars. I think he was watching with approval.
