1997 Mazda MX-5 Miata: Adding Some Character
April 01, 2011
I like how our project Miata car has progressed. It's a ton of fun to drive around, but I think it's lacking a little personality. So I decided to mock-up some of my ideas. Above is the baseline -- a rough approximation of British Racing Green. Fair warning, the original image was an orange Miata and I didn't have the energy to give it my full Photoshop attention. There are some reflections and edges that are pretty amateur, but don't worry, things get worse. Much worse...
As a Lotus fan, I though it could use a stripe.
I also like Gulf-liveried racecars. Is your stomach turning yet?
Oh, but a classic 250 GTO livery is even better, no? No.
I can already hear it..."Step away from the Photoshop!"
My Starsky and Hutch version wasn't as bad as I thought. But then again, I already emptied the contents of my stomach into my wastebasket.
This one's for Oldham. I think I just got fired.
And for my finale: Helllllllooooooooo Kitty.
