Repurposing an Old Piece.

It's a funny thing when you've built up a backlog of art - sometimes you suddenly remember a piece you'd forgotten about, or have a brainstorm about how you can spin off something new from it. In 2006 I did a poster for my brother featuring two of his favourite cars: a Plymouth Cuda, and a Chevy Chevelle SS, both from 1970 (pretty much the twilight of the behemoths as far as the original musclecar era was concerned).

Anyhow, tonight it occurred to me that with a bit of tweaking, this could easily fit in my next book:



So that's 5 illustrations down, and only 45 to go...

Mopar Madness.

Hey, folks. Been tweaking and updating a lot of my older art the past few days. Here's a couple I dug out of the archives from 2001 and 2002. In both cases the colour scheme in the top part of the image was the original, and the one in the bottom part is something new.

Anybody got a preference?





I suspect I'll spin off more variations as well. I'd really like to see flames on that Dart.
