My latest drawing....

[Bugattiart]

Also posted elswhere, but I thought I would share these pics with you guys in here also!
I'm still in the making of this drawing which is made for Armen Gugasian from Newport Beach, California, who is the proud the owner of this superb 288GTO.....my absolute favourite "modern day" classic Ferrari, and one of the last real Enzo-led Ferraris!
More pics of the drawing will be posted when there's new progress to it!!!

I love the 288. Can't wait to see your work finished. It looks great so far:thumbsup:

Is this your first Ferrari supercar drawing?Hi Graham, Thanks a lot :)

Depends on what is called a Ferrari supercar.... :)
I made Wolfgangs Testarossa as the very first Ferrari drawing, but wheter or not it's a supercar?!?! ....and of course....then I made your F355 ;) :)!!!! :) The 288GTO is definately a supercar!
Why?

The 288GTO is certainly a supercar and you're doing a great job of it Not sure the 355 is in supercar territory though!

I couldn't remember having seen any drawing by you of the "big 4" i.e. 288, F40, F50 & Enzo. They're such beautiful cars that they deserve to be captured in ink,in your unique style.

Hope an F40 owner asks you to do a picture one day. Following the progress in a thread like this would be amazing (come on Albert V8 you know you want one :D )

You're right, I never did one of the "big four" until now, but I always swore that I would definately do one of the 288GTO someday, and indeed I hope for an order for an F40 also!
Regarding the Enzo:
I already promised a Danish owner to make a drawing of his Enzo ......if I could have a ride in the car!!! He accepted the deal ;) :)

Carsten, can you send me some costs and what you need from me via pm.

Many Thanks

[Albert V8]

Heres some if they're any good.

Many ThanksHi Albert, :) PM is sent!!!
Your pics looks great, in fact I like the dirty look too......one can imagine that your car is being used as it should be!!! :)

I really like the pic with the exposed engine......just a shame that the pretty clean lines of the car are somewhat disturbed by the open hood.....otherwise I would really like to do the details of the business end of your car from this pic on a drawing :)

Best regards

Carsten

Time for the next update on the 288GTO drawing!
Note the "sunburst" effect in the rear fender just above the rear wheel. I have never done that before, but I'm quite satisfied with the effect it gives!
It looks more real on the paper, than I can show you on a photo, sadly!!!
What do you think gentlemen???

[GrahamS]

Looks good to me :cool:

Are you able to post the original picture that you're copying from?

[Angelis]

Excellent drawing there Carsten.

[a7see]

Very nice drawings..........fancy doing a TR for me???? :)

I'll ask the owner of the picture, if it's okay to post it!!! :)

[Bugattiart]

Excellent drawing there Carsten.Thank you! :)
I hope it will look better still, when finished :)

Once my exhaust is on the car, it will give me a good opportunity to take some shots of the car and I will email them to you nearer the time. The offer sounds good to me..........Will be in touch.:thumbsup:

Looking forward to hear more from you when your car is ready! :)
Are you fitting a TUBI to your car???

Carsten

[a7see]

No...Just a custom made one from stainless-exhaust. :)

[Bugattiart]

No...Just a custom made one from stainless-exhaust. :)Okay, Stainless steel makes a great sound usually!!!
I'm looking forward to see some pics of the TR when the new exhaust is fitted :)
BTW: What year is your TR.....and is it a 512TR, or the earlier Testarossa?
I don't know if you have seen the drawings I made of Wolfgang's Testarossa?!?! :) You will find some rather poor pics at my website in the "Ferrari Art" section. :)

Cheers

Carsten

NB. Update on the 288GTO will be uploaded a little later today!!!

[Bugattiart]

And finally the long awaited update, which I promised yesterday.....
Still it's not finished but I'm getting there slowly.
The rear will still need some work, as well as the interior parts that are visible through the glass.....also I think some parts of the bodywork will be further darkened, and the shaddow will also grow a little!

[lussos]

WOW... Nice work.

[Bugattiart]

WOW... Nice work.Thank you very much, :)
Are you with the Ferrari/ Maserati dealership in NY?.....just wondering about your signature and the link!!! :)

Best regards

And no, I don't trace my works....part of the reason why they take me so long to do I guess :)

[Scuderia Sitar]

I admire your skill and wish I could draw as well. The 288 is superb.

[Malfark]

[Roessingh Schale]
