Here’s a helmet I recently finished for a drag racing driver. The team car is a Volvo chassis with a giant Chevy engine in it. That’s why it’s called Crazy Volvo and has a combined Chevy-Volvo logo. I did all design, airbrushing, lettering and pinstriping. The driver basically just gave me a rough sketch of [...]
Every aspiring pinstriper should see this video. Quality is a little poor. But you can easily hear what’s being said. This is advice from THE pinstripe legend, Kenneth “Von Dutch” Howard.
South Island Rumble 2010 was a blast. 10 bands in two days, gravel pit racing, very nice car selection, and the best of weather. What more can you ask for. Here’s some of my photos from the meet. The pinstriping and artwork you see in these photos where done by me at the meet.
Did some work on a couple of basses at the Rockabilly Slap Strings shop this weekend.
Here’s some of the projects I finished recently. First a double bass for Frederik from Dead Mens Suit. He wanted something simple, but still very visible. A double bass has so many cool curves you can follow. So it was actually a bit of a challenge deciding which ones to go for. Pinstriping goes really [...]
I just got back yesterday from Tampere, Finland where I attended this years Stripe-O-Rama with the Arctic Pinheads. The Stripe-O-Rama is a “panel jam”, and a panel jam is what we “pinheads” call it when we meet up to paint and hang out. A “pinhead” is, not the scary dude in emo clothes from Hellraiser, [...]
Got my hands on a copy of the new book Pinstripe Planet II. The book is totally awesome. Packed to the brim with high quality photos of work from pinstripers around the world. They even put me on the “Artists we would like to thank list” among some massively cool artists like Pekka Wizzz, Platu, [...]
I’ve been slacking a little putting up photos of my work. So here’s some catching up.
Flat black custom chevy pinstriped at the Streefire show in Denmark. Hood, hatch, headlights and sides got the cool treatment.
Old school rat rod also done at the Streetfire show in Denmark. Front, back, and sides got some stripes, and the [...]

Just received this photo from Christopher Carver in Texas who I designed a tattoo for a while back. It’s all done now. Christopher is totally into pinstriping and also have tattoos with designs by the legendary Steve Kafka from the states and Makoto from Japan.
I must admit that it’s pretty special to see your work [...]
I attended a pinstriping workshop with pinstriping master Pekka Wizzz at Sivletto in Stockholm this weekend. Even though I’ve been to quite a few workshops now, I still learned a lot. The master pinstripers know so many amazing tricks. Little details they’ve picked up over the years that are worth pure gold if you make [...]
