Vintage hand made model that I believe was an entry in the Fisher Body Craftsman Guild

The Fisher Body Craftsman’s Guild was a national model-building competition run by General Motors from 1930 to 1968. Originally focused on replicas of the Fisher coach, it later encouraged teens to design futuristic model cars. Winners earned college scholarships and a trip to Detroit for the national finals. The competition emphasized craftsmanship, creativity, and design, serving as a talent pipeline for GM—many participants went on to become automotive designers. At its peak, it awarded thousands of dollars in scholarships and shaped future careers in engineering and design before ending due to rising costs and declining interest.

In relation to my last post, after 3 years without making one, I have a Twitter friend interested in a custom acrylic painting. I don’t want to show the subject of the painting until it’s done (hopefully), but here’s the colors that I’ll be using! Wish me luck yall!

I was looking through my old photos from 2021-22 and found these painted acrylic art pieces I used to make based off logos, cartoon characters, and even real athletes. Really excited to try and revisit this style of art pieces and try to start one tomorrow!

I am definitely on a Leon Braojos kick ATM - Really loving his watercolor work.
