Porsche 550 Replica Design
FUORISERIE - 25/6/07 at 03:48 PM

Clearing my drawers of some of old rendering........, this was one of my ideas for a modern Porsche 550 replica kit.

the idea was to use a locost mid-engine chassis or an old 550 kit chassis, and then cover it with a one piece tub............that was the initial idea...

maybe not as locost as I would like......but if you really wanted to develop it further, you could find a locost solution......

Hmm.. it's getting hard to pick which one of your designs I like best!

good.....that means you can still choose, which one you want for your next project....

Do they take you long to draw and render?

I was taught rendering at university and I was horrendous at it.

Sigh...

It really depends on the project, those were done for myself as a fun A3 Vellum paper project, I was trying out a chrome effect........, without counting the early design sketch work, and all three renderings took me 6hrs. total.

But sometimes it's a lot longer...

For some reason I can't help but wonder what the Silver Frog would look like if you'd jack it up 5 cm and fit some beefy offroad tires..

A 4x4 version seems like FUN!

I was thinking the same thing...how about a dune buggy speedster?

akumabito - 28/6/07 at 07:42 PM

It would be the sexiest toy in the mud!

Sorry mate, I just had to rape the Silver Frog with a quick photoshop..

I'd love to do a modern interpretation of the 356 coupe. looking for a suitable shell decent enough to use, but knackered enough that I can justify it

I'll post a rough sketch of the buggy evolution of this sketch....
