Artist's Comments

Yay, it's all finished. Came together a lot quicker than i anticipated but it's all done now :)

When i first saw this photo i was pretty amazed, it was perfect to toon so i got started right away. Admitadly i was looking for a new model, went through many websites, especially pausing for a look around tunerzine.com where there are many really tempting photos to work with (obviously if you are planning to do this, you probably best had ask the photographers permission ;)).

I had two things in mind with this piece:

1) No gradients, or as few as possible. I think i ended up with a bit gradiation on the tyres to get them just right.

2) Work with the best when it comes to lighting. Yep with VMaN on board this piece was always going to have some special included. And i'm sure you'll agree, he's done a freaking awesome job :thumbsup: Nice one son :D

I am, as i'm sure most of you are, pretty blown away by what dangeruss has been posting over at his gallery. Obviously it's nice to know he got started with tooning/vectoring cars because of what he'd seen at mine and visua's galleries, but it's cool to have more competition on the site ;) He is pushing me to pull out all the stops and work my arse of just to create something that can be remotely described as good compared to what he is offering. But that's a good thing, i'm not complaining :)

Apologies for the essay. I clearly had lots to say. I know this piece isn't perfect, i'm sure you can point out all the mistakes, and please do.

Just want to thank Oliver again for his help with this project :thumbsup:

Ok...

Enjoy.

It's amazing. I like the sideskirts. And the front bumper fits perfectly with that car. I'm not really a fan of the NSX but this one looks pretty cool.

Wow, that is REALLY nice! VMaN certaintly does a great job with lights, and did he do the rims?
The 'T' on Tein is jaggy, you can see white aliasing around it. Also, the decals on the windshield are jagged as well, and you can barely read them, though I still know what they are.
Tires look great, nothing to fix there. Though in the land of carbon fibre patterns, you are missing out. I would supply you with the one Russ sent me, but I would need his permission. Youre best asking him yourself as its the best cf pattern out there.
Im loving the work on the interior, though the side windows need to show through as well as the solid back doesnt quite look right.
Whoops, I see more jaggies, this time on the front rim lip.
All around, its a great piece and I love to see your work continue to advance, keep it up!
Its also nice to see that competition makes you grow stronger, whereas others (me) just get tired and depressed.
Ive scrapped 12 works in the past month because I didnt feel I would be viewed because Russ' work is so immaculate. I gotta snap out of it.

:+fav:


Oh, jaggies on top intake as well. :P

man that is phat, cant wait to finish my collab with you ;)

Ah you jaggy Nazi you.

I did put a CF pattern on the bonnet, but removed it just before i finished because it looked rubbish. IMO it either looks really good, or really bad. I put CF on my Bomex Supra and that looked alright, not this time though.

Thanks for the comment G, post up some new work already dammit :D
:icondonbenni:
Yeah cool, no probs bro. Thanks for the comment :)

one and only complaint i may have for it is that the right headlight seems to be a bit off, kinda skewed in one direction, and almost like its pointing towards me too much, and not towards the front of the car. maybe its just my perception, but the whole depth and feel of it is a bit akward, aside from that, i think its great.....really love the NSX, tis a beautiful machine, just dont see enough of em ;-).....at any rate.....yes....russ is an amazing artist, i think just about anything that man touches turns to gold.....but by all means, dont let it get ya down, if it does drive you to work harder, damn fine and well....and keep it comin, no matter how much i love his work, i enjoy seeing yours as well......so bring it on C:=

You gotta wait like everyone else, though dont let the suspense kill you, its just regular old V work.
