Artist's Comments

I managed to scare the dickens out of my classmates with this piece. They thought it was done in Maya at first glance, but its actually done entirely with Illustrator 10. But MAN, I had fun doing this! :)

Fantastic work! :+fav

No is a Lamborghini, is a Koenigsegg. ;)

^ Indeed. CC is an awesomely fast car. For illustrator, that must have taken a hell of a long time. Very detailed. Really love this piece. I wouldn't change anything about it!

Hey, thanks for the patronage!:) Much appreciated!

Actually, this piece was done as an attempt to see how much I could do with as few tools as possible in Illustrator. The image I used as a template to draw over was from this website- [link] . The trick is that though I really like the design of the car in question (it makes me think of a combination car and boat!:D), I have no earthly idea as to what model of Lamborghini it actually is.=O The even more curious thing is that this is the ONLY image of the car I have ever found on the web. Like, ever. Even after a 30-page-deep yahoo image search, the same model of this car never appeared more than once! A mystery for the Scooby Doo troupe, no doubt. :3

But as for actual production, I used no more than three tools to emulate the form and color of the car in question- the pen tool, the gradient tool, and gaussian blurs. You can do ALOT with these few tools, but the trick is of course that it takes awhile to do. Kinda like watercolor painting. This thing took me 30 hours of in-class work to do. The upside to having spent all that time working on this is that I use hotkeys in Illustrator to select my tools to use without even looking at the keyboard, now.=p

Once again, Im greatly pleased that you like my work!:) And many thanks for showing it around! *bowing*
