2015 Ferrari F15 Concept

Thomsonstudio_2015_Ferrari_F15

It will be strange to see a Ferrari F1 car without the Shell logo featured prominently on the side pod, but my guess is that with the addition of Haas as a sponsor that’s probably what’s going to happen – what do you think? For old time’s sake, I’ve given Shell real prominence (perhaps too much, graphically) on the rear wing…

2015 McLaren MP4-30 F1 Concept

I don’t really think that McLaren will go with their orange livery – but I wish they would! Telefonica/Movistar? An educated guess – but who knows?

I’m generally happy with this although orange is a difficult colour to deal with from a digital perspective (for me, anyway) and this has come off a little more “anodized” surface than what I ideally wanted. Anyway – hope you like it – enjoy!

2015 Mercedes W06 F1 Concept

2015 Mercedes W06

I’ve tried to keep these a little more literal this year. With the Mercedes W06, I wanted to make it appear a little “meaner”, more nasty, so I’ve gotten rid of all the Petronas turquoise and tried to streamline it a bit. Still likely wouldn’t be “legal”. 🙂

I’ll try to publish the McLaren and Monday, the Ferrari on Tuesday, The Red Bull on Wednesday… etc, if I can keep up!

Classics I’d Like…

Cars

These are some quick sketches I did for another blog I’m working on,  Kicking Vintage Tyres. The blog documents my continuing search for a classic car and these are some models that I’m considering, though I’m not sure how seriously…!

Sorry! It’s been a long time since I posted. Have been busy with marking, shopping for presents and working on the above. I’m working on this with a recent Humber graduate named Tim Sadchikov (and for the most part, the design is his) and we are building a clay model of this over the next couple of weeks (or month) in the hopes of getting it ready as a display piece for inclusion at Humber’s booth at the Canadian International Auto Show… more sketches when I get around to it… 🙂

Marker Renderings

Rendering1 Rendering2A couple of marker renderings done for a marker rendering tutorial for some of my students last week. I always find these a little tough as I don’t do much marker rendering anymore, so the first couple always seem to come out rubbish… these weren’t the first couple – you don’t get to see those  🙂
