A belated welcome. Birdcage is beautiful...I had met Bob S. a few times and felt I was in the presence of greatness.
Soft spot for VWs; me too. In the past, several type 1s, 86 GTI, 88 Scirrocco16V, 90 G60 Corrodo (bought new). The aircooled(VW) cars are special and a perfect segeway into 911s. They share so much spirit; to love one and not the other is impossible. I have an 87 924S that honestly was bought as a light track/ DD as an alternative to a watercooled VW. Power steering, AC, the pointy "nipple" gauges are all very close in my mind to the utility/ fun factor of a Scirrocco.

Your artwork is incredible, I'm an amateur photobug and feel like I have an ok eye for composition...... but someone that can see those minute nuances of color and detail and translate that by hand to a canvas is just awesome....
Have you gotten anywhere w/ the SC?

You and I obviously have stellar taste in automobiles! I've always wanted to get a 924S and turn it into a lightweight Carrera GTS look-a-like.
Nice avatar pic. I have many photos I have taken of that 917.

Maybe someone here can help me. I want to post the prints of the 917 front view up for sale here, but can't figure out where to post it. Don't want to break any forum rules, but I don't see a way to post in the classifieds OR the Marketplace tabs at the top right of the page. I have searched the FAQ and didn't see anything. My only assumption is that you have to be a Premium member?. When I click on the "Membership" tab it just gives you the option to buy a year membership etc. I'm usually pretty good at finding stuff, but I am at a loss for this one. Can someone steer me in the right direction?
Here is a little tiny watercolor I did several years ago:

How much would it cost to have one of those done of a photograph? I'm thinking about my dogs looking out of my 911. Would be pretty cool.

The only issue would be the photo. I like to take my own photos as i'm sure you can understand. I am however, probably heading out to just south of LA in late March or so to photograph some other cars for paintings.
