Porsche 917K (moved)

Here's a first attempt at something that was technical yet painterly. I hoped to get some nice giclee prints done for sale but unfortunately Porsche wouldn't let me. I used a blueprint of the chassis found on the net for the basis and added the bodywork and other detail with Photoshop. Ah well. Hope you like it...

(Thanks to Ross for pointing out what forum this should have been in)

Looks amazing IMO.

Mshkttck, what do you mean? Do you go and draw something and say, "what was that for"?

HONU: Its a piece of car art, so It can stay here.

Re: Porsche 917K (moved)

Thanks very much for the nice comments (I particularly liked the 'what's it for?').

It wasn't that difficult as all I was doing was working over a blueprint - colouring in if you like. In the absence of having a real 917 lying about to take measurements off I used some blueprints found here...

http://www.porsche917.com.ar/tecplanos01.htm

That's why Porsche wouldn't let me sell the prints - which is fair enough. But arguably if you had access to the car you could produce the exact same blueprint. Ho-hum.
