Hits home in so many ways!! This interview is solid gold!! We need Glen to come give a tour at Don Garlits museum and tell stories of all the great art on the race cars... You could fill a week!!!
Hi, I was wondering if you had a way I could contact you for a collaboration commission possibly? I have an artist in mind to cover up my tattoo but I would love to add some im embellishments like this
No problem. You can usually get a hold of me best on Instagram or Facebook. Freddie Villa on Facebook and @villapinstriping on Instagram. Or you can email me at VillaPinstriping@gmail.com
I use 1 shot for lettering and custom painting on helmets gas tanks etc.etc.,, and yes I do use this hardener in my 1 shot enamel,, I use 10% and yes I do drops and there are times when I only have about 1/8th oz. of 1 shot so I then guess about 5 drops and these drops are from ice cream stir sticks,,, the hardener will make the paint set up much faster and then I use a little clear fluothane to smooth the paint out and slow the drying... I wanted to say I do spray a 2k clear urethane over my work and the main thing is to let the 1 shot dry at least 2 to 3 days,,, My 1st coat of clear is a tack coat very light and almost like a fog coat, let dry 15 to 20 minutes before 2nd medium coat let dry 40min and finale coat I spray a medium wet coats. Remember your not spraying over a base coat. One more thing I wanted to add, I always have samples of all the colors I use for each job and I spray clear over the samples before I spray my custom work. Hope that helps and thanks for your help Vill Pinstriping too. Signs by: Tom
Glen is a master. I met him once back in the 90's at Fargo letterheads meet where he was giving a class. He didnt have any drums with him but it didnt stop him from playing on all kinds of stuff , pans cans , It was kool to see . Id love to see him make some books of his work. its fantastic , maybe a couple of videos he could sell through excaliber.
Loving the podcasts so far, fantastic to have something like this out in the world. Thank you both so much, appreciate ya. You were chatting about books in this one, can I chuck in a recommendation? It's called Pinstriping Masters, there's also a second volume out too. Covers 28 artists showcasing an example of their style of work, all step by step with a bunch of photos along the way. Plenty of tips for us newbies, and probably a good read for those already in the know anyway. Not affiliated in any way to it, just one that I've spent many hours thumbing through. And last thing, is it better for you guys for us to listen here on youtube, or through a platform like spotify? That's if it makes any difference, just thinking one might be more beneficial over the other? Huge cheers for what you do, take it easy 🖌👍
Thanks for your feedback!! I think Wherever you listen helps us out. Me uploading onto RU-vid is about a 2 years behind. The Spotify app is up to date. I've been slowly adding th older episodes into RU-vid for everyone to listen. Hopefully when I get caught up I'll try to keep up with it better
No international over seas deal for you and me ;( Thanks for doing this raffle! It's a great change to get some amazing artwork for a low price! Keep it up Freddie!
