Hi All

I am looking for a photo of a Chimaera which will be the basis for some pencil art drawn by Clare Brewster https://www.facebook.com/clarebrewsterautomotivear...

I will then convert this to an image suitable to be sandblasted onto glassware (Pint Beer Mugs). (I have already asked Big Al if I can post this).

So if you would like your car to be the basis of the image to go onto some glassware post up some pics.

This is the glass type I'll use



Here's an example of how the glass blasting can look. It's all a bit experimental but I'll see how it goes.
If it is successful other models will follow as and when Clare can do the artwork.

There's plenty on Google - but using images without permission can get you into hot water - hence the ask.

Great contrasting colour - there's just something I can't quite put my finger on...

Some good pics, a few are contenders, I need to speak to Clare as well to work out which will work best.

There was a pic of a car on a track going round a bend with Armco behind it - has it been deleted?

Not that one, the car was yellow I think, but not certain.

Few of my old ones...

Possibly looking to use this if you are OK with it Wyn.

I like the fact the car is leaning into the bend, and the black and white armco should show up quite well.

Remember turning this into a sandblasted image loses the colour - it's essentially no sand blast or sandblast to make the shading, look at the image on the first page of the wedge.

I've PM'd you - additional question to the PM - do you want your plate leaving on the image or removing?

Red lines just to avoid theft of the image I commissioned.

It's Wyn's car pwd95.

I chose this image because it's a great shot with the car leaning, and I wanted a standard (ish) car with standard lights and wheels for the greater audience.

I've ordered the materials and glasses today - if it goes to plan I should have something to show over the weekend.
