Ali · 22-06-2006, 22:07

Yeah thats why I gave up on it in the end, the colour scheme didn't really see to be coming together at all and didn't really fit the background! e-mail coming your way

another idea that has dropped into my email......

the waves with the pic of mount fuji is taken from a famous painting in Japan... the manga image is actually from a well known korean artist....looks pretty cool

oli · 01-07-2006, 18:37

Thats the wave from the image used on the D-Drug bonnets

DriftLexus · 08-07-2006, 18:54

The Kanagawa Great wave is painted by Hokusai.

Hokusai is a famous Classic Japanese painter, main figure of “Ukiyo-e”.

Ukyo-e is a classic style of japanese painting.

The Great wave of Kanagawa is very famous painting and in the background of this painting you can see the Fujiyama ( Fuji Mountain ).

Concerning the little girl in bikini, it is a work done by a Korean character designer for video games; Hyung Tae Kim.

His work is awesome and much more dynamic than classic Japanese mangaka.........

anyway,onto the actual Project..... unlike alot of the projects on here, ive not been upto much lately, due to work.....and for once i can say ive actually been doing some

what i did manage to get sorted today is the covers for where the rear speakers were..

also managed to now overcome a problem i had when it was a road car....having some means to lash the car down at the rear, as the original rear lashing points were removed to fit the twin box exhaust...with the new lashing point ive incorporated the rear recovery point

im away for a week, but i need to start sorting my shit out and do some graft.....will next be looking at the fuel cell/ swirl pot and other bits and bobs for the boot, will need to relocate the boot mounted battery aswell, into the spare wheel well, the fuel cell and parts are being removed from the Blue car

Knew i reconised it. Lovely car! Nice 2 c somone going for a turbo conv rather than a supercharger which is quite common for these, I think

DriftLexus · 09-07-2006, 21:07
