Episode 112.) David Kedrow from X-Static Detroit Concepts
This week we get to know David Kedrow from X-Static Detroit Concepts. He has come onto the Foxbody scene lately by hand-drawing beloved Foxbodies across our community.
As we get to know David, he explains why he decided to pursue the more difficult path of hand-drawing cars instead of using computer-based programs. He also tells us how his love of American Muscle came to be.
David also gives us an idea of what it would cost to have your favorite car captured, artistically, to be proudly displayed in your home, garage or man cave. It's a lot less than one may think!
When you’re done with the pod, please check out Dave’s socials. Take care and have a great week!
