This one has been a while in the making, and it’s not the last video I’ll have for this drawing. More videos coming on a regular basis. This is video number 7 recorded on June 7th and 20th, 2013.

MATERIALS:
The drawing is called Amazing Realization, and it is an enormous pencil drawing on a 22″ x 30″ sheet of fine heavy bristol drawing paper. In the drawing, I use many 0.3mm mechanical pencils. I use mostly to HB and 2B graphite leads. I occasionally use paper shaders to blend the pencil, but again, the vast majority of it is hand shaded using a very careful amount of hand pressure.

TECHNIQUES:
Whenever I’m holding the pencil much further back from the tip, I’m allowing the pencil’s own weight to press down on the paper which makes for very soft shading. I am also not a robot drawing robot, so I use erasers. I use the white plastic erasers that work so well with drafting pencils, and the rubber gray kneadable erasers you can form into shapes. I like those for lightening areas which have been filled in too dark, and to keep my pencils from rolling off my drawing desk when I’m not using them. I use a horse hair eraser brush to remove eraser shavings from the drawing without smudging my work. I sometimes use a latex glove on my left hand to keep the oil of my hand from getting on the paper, and for a similar reason, I put a sheet of paper under my drawing hand to keep from smudging parts I’ve already drawn while shading.

THE STORY:
Last year I started a Kickstarter to make prints of my new drawing, Amazing Realization, for people who wanted them. This is quite an epic project which began in mid November 2012 and continues months into 2013. On January 1st 2013 the Kickstarter was successfully funded at over 200% of my goal. Now I’m just working away at finishing the drawing and doing what I can to show the making-of process along the way. The backers get email updates with new photos showing the progress of the drawing the night I work on it, and I release the photo updates of the drawing daily on my Art blog, http://artblog.jeffjag.com, my facebook fan page http://www.facebook.com/jeffjag.art and my twitter feed @jeffjag (all three feature the same daily content). Check out the kickstarter page and watch the video of me announcing the project on that page. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/112182510/super-detailed-abstract-pencil-art-amazing-realiza – And if you want a print even though the kickstarter’s over, you can pre-order right on my website or blog through the Amazon button.

TIME SPENT:
I started this drawing in November 2012 and I’m over half finished as of this video. For this video alone (number SEVEN), I captured 5,422 frames. Each of these frames was taken between 1 and 10 seconds apart. It varies due to the nature of stop motion and the complexities of drawing with one hand and capturing frames with the other hand. I’ll have a rough estimate by the time I post the final time-lapse project video. Subscribe to my channel and you’ll get it delivered right to you from the friendly YouTube folks in your emails.

SONG – Indigo Grove by JeffJag
The sounds were created in the Moog Animoog and Korg iELECTRIBE apps on iOS, then mixed together in a multi-track audio editor. All composing, recording, sequencing, and mixing was done by myself and you can listen to all the soundtracks I’ve made for my videos on SoundCloud here: http://soundcloud.com/jeffjag/

TIME-LAPSE vs. STOP MOTION
Stop motion and Time-Lapse are used at different intervals during this video. The first two videos in the series were shot at a frame every 5-8 seconds. Later on, I decided to get out my remote shutter release and you can see me holding the button in my left hand as I draw with my right hand. Starting with video 10, I use a wireless shutter release.

WHAT’S WITH THE LATEX GLOVE?
I use a latex glove on my left hand while I draw to keep the oil of my hand from getting on the paper. I place a white sheet of paper under my right hand so I can shade without smudging what I’ve already done. Because I have to move my right hand while drawing, this keeps my hand free to move over areas I may have already drawn without smearing the work.

Not only is this Corvette well documented, it sports a quality restoration that’s built around a roster of correct components, and its VIN-stamped 327/Muncie drivetrain is an exclusive differentiator in a sea of retrofitted big blocks. Now that we have your undivided attention, it’s our pleasure to bring you the latest in our line of awesome Corvette convertibles!

BODYWORK/TRIM

Saying this C2 is a great combination of show and streetability is essentially summarizing its status as a really nice classic that someone hasn’t been afraid to enjoy. The car was Bloomington Gold-certified back in 1993, which means it had likely been subjected to a world-class restoration. Then, prior to the current owner’s purchase in 2004, it was restored a second time just for good measure. Fast-forward 12 years, and this Vette presents very well, without inducing the ownership stress of a freshly restored trailer queen. During its in-depth rebuilds, the car’s solid fiberglass was thoroughly massaged and professionally finished. And when everything lined up and functioned well, a rich layer of correct Lynndale Blue base was buried in glossy clear and buffed to a deep shine.

ENGINE

Tilt this Corvette’s lightweight hood and you’ll find a 327 cubic inch L79 V8 that hangs a February (B) 23rd (23), 1967 (7) casting date and familiar 3892657 casting number behind a high performance ÐíÑHTÐíÑ suffix stamp and matching partial VIN. Introduced as a formidable companion for street prowling Sting Rays, this high performance small block left the factory twisting solid 10 to 1 compression into a stout 350 horsepower. At the top of the spry mill, a polished air cleaner funnels wind in to a correct Holley carburetor that’s threaded onto requisite stainless fuel lines. Below that juice box, a familiar Winters intake perfectly complements finned Corvette valve covers. At the back of that intake, chrome-cased transistorized ignition shoots spark past correct exhaust manifolds. And at the front of those manifolds, a stamped radiator cycles coolant through pliable hoses and old school tower clamps.

DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION

Behind the 327, an VIN-stamped Muncie 4-speed hangs a familiar 3885010 casting number next to a Muncie (P) assembled on February (B) 20th (20), 1967 (7) build stamp. Behind that gearbox, an “AM” stamped third-member twists a posi-traction differential around tough, 3.36 gears. At the ends of the car, a requisite double A-arm front and independent rear suspension is completely sorted down to its tough transverse leaf, standard manual steering and Gloss Black control arms. Above those sturdy bones, clean floor tubs ride a straight, Satin Black frame. At the corners of those floors, standard disc brakes mix good handling characteristics with quick and solid stops. At the edges of those brakes, old school side-pipes disperse a fantastic soundtrack. And 15-inch Rally Wheels twist 7.75-15 Firestone Deluxe Champion redlines around stainless trim rings and flush center caps.

INTERIOR

Open this C2′s tossable doors and you’ll find a correct Dark Blue interior that appears to have been completely replaced during the car’s first or second rebirth. Seating comes courtesy of correct leather thrones, which anchor optional headrests between blue belts, bright stainless trim and a small console that’s centered on a fully functional shifter. In front of those seats, a traditional clock and Delco AM/FM radio ride between rebuilt gauges and an aluminum-trimmed glove box. In front of the driver, a satin-spoke steering wheel laps a brilliant cross-flag emblem.

This Corvette has it all: great looks, solid power and a highly accurate restoration that would take years to duplicate.
