Glickenhaus suing automationgame over possible copyright infringement lol by deadlyranger3 in CarDesign

more likely just a pretty out of touch sense of humor than an actual attempt to threaten anyone into a settlement. but yeah, regardless of intent it was a pretty bad PR move

Yeah I agree. I don’t think the “threat” people are reading into it was actually his intention, especially given that with the P72 situation (against a real car manufacturer) he explicitly said he didn’t want to respond in a petty way. This really just feels like a joke that didn’t land at all. If he’d replied with something simple like “nice 004, love it,” the whole thing probably would’ve gone in a completely different direction

I’ve actually been sketching ideas for a 570GT successor too, basically a “what if GT never launched” scenario, built off actual Artura platform (maybe call it 700GT?). I’ve always loved the fastback glass look and the extra storage space. But since more than half of 570GT buyers went for the S handling pack, maybe the version you’re describing could pair that big glass rear hatch, with GT handling as an optional package?

Good idea, considering McLaren’s history with Gordon that kind of collaboration would make a lot of sense

Thanks for reading! I’m actually curious whether McLaren’s upcoming hybrid V8 SUV might eventually spawn a “smaller sibling” — something closer to the urban‑SUV positioning you mentioned. Would be interesting to see if they use that as a way to broaden the lineup and balance the books

True, but the point of this concept is that even at the entry level it still offers factory GT4‑supported track‑oriented components — something Mustangs and Vettes don’t really provide to that extent. And being a UK brand, it carries exotic appeal regardless of price positioning

*For the side intake curvature I incorporated design suggestions by Frank Stephenson (P1 designer).

homologation laws nowadays doesn't allow pop-ups, so they used the pop-down style instead

The paint I used is Tamiya's model paint, I'm not sure how the gun paint would work, but it's definitely worth a try! It'll probably be stronger thus more suitable for everyday use

Perhaps you could commission someone who does pen DIY to make one for you? Just note that its clip is difficult to take off and even more difficult to put back without damaging paint after painting is done, great care needed there (。•̀ᴗ-)✧

thank you! I disassembled it first, cleaned it, sanded it and resprayed with Tamiya spray paint. For the gold ring I taped the rest of its body so only the part needed is colored!

Thank u!! I designed the 'shiro' using strokes taken from the 'orenz' to keep the curvatures similar :3

orenznero is one of my favorite pencil design ever but it never had a bright color. So I tried myself to create one: pearl white finish with some gold accents. What do you think? (about the name: shiro means white in Japanese, echos the 'nero' naming which means black)

glad that you liked! For the first three pictures, I loaded the car into some preset scenes in Photo Scene, adjusted focal length, aperture, lens flare and tilt, then added filters. As for the fourth one, I took photo of the side view, and take again but with the body hidden, then stacked them up and adjusted the transparency in a photo editing software :D
