Default I got my first cover shot!

A couple of years ago I never would've guessed I'd ever get a cover shot like this with my artwork. Special thanks go out to David and Rob from MCG Publishing for the honors. I'd spent months on and off working on this project with Chris Wilkins at Group 5 Limited. The new Challenger program is very exciting and Chris and I can't wait to get our hands on a new Challenger. I will be posting pics but should have the teaser webpage up within the next 24 hours which will give a basic outline on what Group 5 plans on doing with these new Challengers and what the inspiration was behind all the design elements of the 4 different cars. There's still a lot of design and development to fine tune but the basic plan and resources are just about set in place.

This is the SRT8 Roadster Concept. Just imagine, your brand new SRT8 Challenger shows up and you start modifications with chopping the roof and windshiled OFF! LOL! This Challenger will be a "true" roadster - no top. More details to come.
