The video is 2-5 minutes but it takes 2-10 hours to paint. I just wish I had the know-how to do it. I could always learn but the old fashion way has worked pretty well for me so far.

Actually, one of the upshots of Wacom Tablets is the ability to create variable line weight based on the pressure that you apply. It makes it more like actual drawing but it does take some getting used to. Maybe if I ever get a business going, I'll get one.

 This video in itself is freakin' amazing. The fact that it is an Opel makes it ART. My highest compliments to Kevin Saxler. Is he known to somebody here? Dieter

I've never interacted with him before but I have noticed his speed painting on youtube before. It would be interesting if he was hiding in the wings.
