Artist's Comments

Karmann Ghia, the legendary Beetle's sexier sibling! Haha, nothing much to say about this one, other than I really like the car!

This painting is based on K-Project's track car, hence the rear fenders and other race mods. It was also equipped with a GT wing, but I left that out as I think it doesn't really fit the car :p

The version with classic paint scheme is here: [link]

You're right, it's very very flawed :( Anyway, yeah, the fuzz was getting on my nerves too, I just made it less obvious now by making everything softer, doesn't help much, maybe it's because of me importing the lines from AI to PSD, hmph, I still have a lot to learn about this. I fixed the lighting and stuff on both versions while I was at it too; lotsa flaws jumping out at me now! Couldn't see those earlier, blinded, gah! Thanks for feedback :)

Hm, I've actually contemplated this a few times, but I thought it looked a bit cartoonish. I might try it next time :)
