The video features Dunlop, also known as Pinstripe Chris, who went on to reveal his journey as an automotive painter. According to him, he started off his career as an artist after his high-school days while assisting a veteran painter at a body shop. In his paintings, Dunlop uses methods like airbrushing and pinstriping. However, according to him, his work can seem to be a mess until it is fully complete. At the end of the video, he employs delicate strokes of his paintbrush to highlight the details, giving the final touches to the painting.
Mahindra also referred to the same while sharing the video on his personal Twitter handle. He wrote in the caption, “The man has a gift. The final painting emerges like magic. Must get him to paint one of our SUVs.” Additionally, he further asked his followers to drop their preference for the model that should be painted by this brilliant artist in the comment section.
Since being posted, the clip has earned nearly two lakh views on Twitter and as many as 4,500 users have liked it so far. The comment box saw numerous viewers showering praise on Dunlop for his unparalleled creativity and skill.
A user said, “Wow! That’s a natural gift. Super confident.”
