Well, it looks like we have a good range of concepts to choose from. Any of these will work well with the Olds. Hopefully there's something for everyone!
Again, thanks to Scott for this forum to showcase all of our artwork and Jeff for his investment of time, sweat and $$$ in the project.
Thanks Ben, I was glad I had a chance to contribute. Jeff is a hell of a cool guy to work with and is really knowledgeable and best of all, has good taste, which as an artist, makes it much easier to design for him.
I wish I would have had a little more time, especially with the last few weeks being as busy as they've been for me, but I'd say it's about 90% of how I would have liked to have seen it. I ran out of time on the small details like the smoothed and recessed marker lights, and would have liked to have tried some door handle options (shaved handles are neat, but a real pain in the a$$ sometimes.)
The red and silver scheme came after several other color and paint scheme options I threw at Jeff and I think he and I both agree that it's a good looking setup. It's sleek and sexy because it's silver, but the red stripe shows a darker side to it.
Ben's exhaust idea is killer and I'm glad Jeff decided to have me render it on my design as well. No matter whose paint scheme gets chosen, I'd love to see that realized.
Id like to thank Brian Ben Jason and Kris for the hard work, All the renderings look great to me The budget for all parts and supplies will be $15,000 All the labor will be in house with the exception for the interior.
Does the average typical cost of a rendering from the artists that contributed go against the $15k?
As long as I dont get a bill I feel every project with hard money spent needs to have a rendering, It builds focus on the project so I feel a rendering cost needs to apply
I actually spoke to Jeff about that about 2 weeks ago. I sorta feel like it should be part of the budget even though we're not really charging for it. It is part of the build process I guess, specifically this build. It shows what can be acheived with $15K. What does everyone else think? Maybe I'm wrong.
I'm with Ben on this. Renderings are becoming a "given" part of the build process these days, especially to those planning on spending a lot of money. Just think of how many projects you see on this site and others where the builder or owner has a rendering to show his plans for the car. I would definitely include the price of the renderings into the overall build cost. That's my 2 cents.
