crazyjim Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I'd be glad I was finished too. I can't imagine the time you spent on that thing, but it looks really neat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiction ix Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 wow this is awesome. I have seen some photos of the real life sharpy car. And you have done an amazing job here. Must have took a long time to get this done so clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernard Kron Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 (edited) I'm glad you've got this one off the bench, too - so I can enjoy it! I have no idea how the graphics compare to the original and frankly I couldn't care less whether it's a replica or your own original (in fact I'd prefer if it's your own, I think). A beautifully executed concept and the graphics are a super design. They suit the shape and lines of the car perfectly. Two thumbs up! Question: Given how intricate the design is did you draw it directly on the plastic with a Sharpie? And if so, is it essentially freehand or did you work from prior art? Added later: Just went and looked at the 1:1 again. Your art is your own - and it's great! Edited January 3, 2010 by gbk1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragline Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I think this is the coolest car I've seen in some time. It has a Joe Satriani vibe going on which I dig. Satch is a Lamborghini fan I think. As an artist, I have tremendous admiration for your patience in doing this. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
