Th' Buzzard ball & Fish Hookz

A long time ago, in a country where things still mattered, there was a military branch who's job it was to kill the enemy and break their stuff. The time was th' 1940's and th' unit was th' U.S.M.C.

Back when I was in that gun club, (1980's) I was talkin' to an ol' timer. He informed
me that, back in th' day, the Corps emblem, the Eagle, Globe & Anchor was refered to as, Th' Buzzard, Ball & Fish Hooks. I've been wanting to put my own twist (never satisfied to leave well enough alone...) on that time honored image. The S.B.G. design will no doubt have more detail than the original - But it also will be sooo KeWl ! More on this later.

Hinton 1959 Mack B 61 Delux

Floyd Hinton of th' Nostalgia Car Klub in Yuma has a beachin' `59 Mack truck. This is the sketch, art work will be air brushed in color. Detail to be done in Prismacolor marker and tech pen.
Mr. Hinton also has a sweet custom trike... I may just do a graphic of that & send it to him as a su-prize. Fink on bruthaz & sistaz !
