It's time I revealed my talent to you all!
Discussion
So, one morning back in September last year, my daughter and I were doing the usual morning routine – largely comprising of playing with just about every toy she could get out of the toy box. One of those happened to be the Magna Doodle – Disney Minnie Mouse edition, no less.
I decided that, after drawing stick-men versions of Grandma, Grandad and the dog several times upon request that I'd have a go at a car instead. And in doing so, I revealed a talent I never knew I had....
Behold... the Escort Cosworth.
(For the young ‘un amongst you who haven’t immediately identified the car, you can clearly tell it's a Cossie, due to the 3 door shape of the car and the large rear wing).
Then I thought I'd have a go at something more exotic. The classic Ferrari 355 Spider...
Note the acute attention to detail here; pop up headlights, roof cover, 5 spoke alloys, and the SOS Box at the side of the road.
Realising I’m onto something here, I cast aside Mr Potato head and sent my two-year old on a distraction mission setting up a plastic picnic in the centre of the living room, I then decided to start copying from pictures on the web.
And here we have the Lamborghini Murcielago...
And finally... The Porsche 911 Turbo (notice the Turbo vents on the sides and the rear spoiler??).
So there you have it. Awesome drawings. Awesome fun. I haven’t created any art since September but thought it was high time I put magnet to doodle and created some more one-off drawings.
If you would like a personalised picture of your car, I'm offering these at a special Pistonheads discounted rate of zero pounds and zero pence. Just post an image of your car and I'll see what I can do.
Feedback is of course always welcome.

Surely, that is a Ford Puma? Edited by supertouring on Tuesday 20th May 17:24
