Painted a few bodies for Nesta and John "The Jet" to be used at the Parma Checkpoint Cup race.
 
First up is John Cukras body painted after his Ferrari from 1969.

Then there is Nesta's F1 body painted as Retro as I could manage.

But... with Nesta's Can-Am I went a little off the reservation... Sorry dude, hope you still like it.

Besides the green flames... our talented young female driver got hot during the race and opened up her driving suit exposing ah... "Victoria's Secret" in order to cool off.  :heat:

Nice job Mr J.,,only thing is,,in 6 months Cukras's car will still look excellent,,
after the CPC Nesta's cars be so thrashed you wont recognize either of them,,,,lol

(slightly different driving styles Cukras/Nesta),Cukras uses the MAKE LAPS THEORY,,,

and Nesta,,,well we here at BP know what his driving style is,,,,lol,,,,

Jairus, one of these days I'll have you paint a Can-Am for me with a fiddle on it somewhere. After all, I'm the "Fiddler"!

                                                   Happy New Year!

J.W: I am humbled by the absolute mastrey of the drivers that you've made in the past. The "busty" driver you made several years ago still lingers in my mind.....

 

For that very reason, I beg of you to create a plaster "mold" with all the "detail" :shok: that first one had, and get a vacu-form and start mass producing them for sale. I'll place and order for a few dozen right out of the gate.....

Funny you should mention that Jeff.  It was just a few hours ago... while I started planning my next "modified driver figure" that I considered making and vac-forming at will, a decent master mold. 

 

I am working on it!


And a decent male driver figure too! (It's pretty easy when they are molded in styrene)
