[Legend_Car]

jeez calm down sure its not perfect but at least he is trying to do something for the relief and dont say your sorry when your not

[cuchytil]

constructive criticism folks...

[mikevillena]

Hey Fes..
Looks alright. A suggestion, grab your fine point Sharpie and draw some detail lines especially on the window trim. Maybe a few balanced stickers and a number sticker on the side number plates . I think you'll be good to go.

Excuse me, JEV.....is that how you acquired the "Elvis on Velvet" painting that's hanging on your bedroom wall? C'mon, man...give Fester some credit. Comments like that have no place here.

[Silent Scope]

dont say your sorry when your not

ok ill admit it..

[elcid4300]

sorry for bagging on ya but..

1) thoes window masks suck..
2) the colors u used? yellow, green, blue? lol..
3) the design? *** .. its like a blob or somethin

Put the copier/printer that's under the shell on ebay for charity instead :D

Auctioning crap stuff for charity is pointless. The person bidding may as well send the money straight to the red cross :rolleyes:

As the saying goes,
"If you don't have anything nice to say............"

[FESTER2004]

thanks gang!i didnt have any paint masks with!i used 3m blue painters tape n did them too quick!i didnt relaly have a design...i just went freeley with the blade....yeah the colors are weird......,we'll see what happens!thanks!

[slow one 2]

You guys are ROTTEN,,,,,, I'd sure be ashamed to be your mothers. And why not auction crap it's what's coming outa your mouth!!!!!!!

[elcid4300]

Everyone take a breath. I would suggest people post some costructive criticism or NONE at all. Bashing someone for trying is not a cool thing to do.

Fester, regardless of any negative comments, or even the constructive criticisms, what you did is an incredibly noble thing and something you should take great pride in. I challenge anyone else on here to put forth even half the effort you did for such a selfless act.

Your painting skills are growing, and there will always be paint jobs you've done and aren't proud of, but buying a body and laying some paint so that the sale proceeds benefit those in need is what sets you above many others on the board. You have a true passion for painting and limitless compassion for your fellow human. It doesn't matter how much your work went for, it's the idea and effort that has and will set you aside from every other member on this board.

Be proud of your work, regardless of what people say. Challenge them to show you up by putting words into action to help out those in need. Hold your head up high and straight, you've accomplished more in that single act than most of us, and NOTHING and NO ONE can ever detract or take that away from you.

Thank you, Fester, you're an example to all of us.

[FESTER2004]

thanks i am really touched.i am speechless........just tryn to help when i can.....i am nobody special ,just your average joe i guess,lol!piggy ,thanks again for the kind words!

[jcnalley]

Fester,it may have only sold for $1.77,but that is $1.77 that your charity didn't have before the sale.Great effort and reasons for doing the body,just tell anyone who doesn't like it to "put up or shut up".You are one of the only individuals I have seen take this kind of effort upon themselves.Once again,great job.

[elcid4300]

i am speechless.

There's a first...JK Fester :p . You did a good thing and should be proud.

[FESTER2004]

thanks!

[cuchytil]

i bid on it :D

[FESTER2004]
