Hollywood Pinup 3D - Experimenting again with 3D (anaglyphs, actually), I went at this piece with some hefty ambition. With multiple layers of depth just about everywhere, I had a ton of fun in the smallest of details!
The image is, essentially, an anaglyph created using only one image. Starting with a pencil sketch, the original piece was scanned to Illustrator and re-drawn for use as a t-shirt... and now as a curiosity.

Tour Car - Rendering for the Street Rodder Magazine 2010 Road Tour Car. Essentially a tribute to a Bay Area car which won the AMBR award in 1952, based on an extended '27 T pickup (on '32 rails), and generally an updated traditional-style hot rod. (you can follow the actual car's build-up in Street Rodder Magazine, if interested)

Surfite Cube - A full-custom, surf lifestyle-oriented concept for the 2010 Nissan Cube.
I was heavily influenced by the car's asymmetrical design, and applied key elements inspired by Ed Roth's "Surfite" show car from the '60's to further play-up the theme.

Surfin' Hearse - I had been on a surf-inspired ride kick... I wanted to truly push the envelope, and create a car that hasn't been used as such.
In the name of "recycling" (ah, sweet puns!), I took a '63 hearse, and added a sliding rag top, wood panels, smoothie billet rims, and a sunset orange pearl paint job to emphasize the beach cruiser theme, and breathe some life into those long, flowing panels by playing with the light along the curves.

So-Cal Cubism - Another Cube lifestyle concept, this time I took a more subtle road, applying a Southern California cruiser theme. My goal (with this being seen by the engineering and corporate folks at NNA) was to emphasize the car's built-in customizing potential, and to push the envelope for aftermarket accessories.
A few key elements include the wind-out windows (windshield and rear door vent), sliding rag top, louvered fender, grille filler, lower grille opening bar and two-tone paint.
Hope you dig it!

'32 Roadster - Comp for hot rod project design, 1932 Ford Roadster, radical wedge section through body, severe chop and lay-back on windscreen, no channel to presereve classic early lakes feel (floors will dip down behind outer rails, which conceal modern chassis). Idea was to convey the look of an early modified with the style of early European touring and sports cars, and retain an industrial feel through use of exposed hardware, and polished/machined parts versus chrome.

Dream in 3D - I had been playing for months with 3D imagery, plotting to create a solid method for converting my illustrations to anaglyphs-- doing this with one image --especially an illustration-- creates a number of huge obstacles. Suffice to say, I'm figuring it out, and wanted to share a piece here, featuring a customized (my design) 1953 Ford being chased through the back woods in a moonshine era-inspired work. Break out the red/cyan glasses, and enjoy! Many more to come....
