Description Just some of the bent axels concepts i struggled with this year desperate for a creative spark. To no avail~ got shut down every direction i started to like... the center one seems to be the one they like the most, wont say which one i love cause it doesnt frickin matter... the customer is always...blah blah blah

sometimes its quite tough getting a conceptual foundation for whatever reason. this year was especially tough for me conceptually... everytime they dictate the elements for their design it goes COLD...COLDER COLLLDER>>>>>

this year they dictated everything and did not give me any great vehicles images to work with.... not whining but)

i hate this car, i love the flash the pizazz of the fenderless rides and they keep throwing their hearing-aids at me...errrrrrr

oh well this is no-where near ready but the show must go... or is it back to the )_(^*%

im not very satisfied as you can read, but just thought id share a bit of the design process when its not going soo smoothly... thanks peace out

I feel your pain man, sometimes I want to bash a client's head into the table lol. Awesome work though, from what I can see I love the bottom right design

Haha that was a good read I hate it when people think they know how to design. All I think in my head is the sooner I do what they want the sooner they leave. HAHAHA

Great job though I see where you wanted to go but sometimes its better if you when people let you do what your good at.

totally... i agree. ive done this job for 4years. each year they told me what to do and i fought em and each year i got to do what i wanted to basically with many images to work with. by the second year they were selling out and doing second reprints. the third year i got second place nationally with the design and now regress..... eerrrrrrrrrrrr cant win em all but 2nd place is still close.


thanks

While I agree that the fenderless cars have a great look to them sometimes the coupes need a little love . I really like the detail work on the fenders for the reflections and the paint looks awesome.

thanks... it might just be me whining. the 39 stock and the 39 custom is another reason why i was having trouble, these guys are so old school that they hate anything modern on their rides..

too each their own..
