subject: car design, dears
Critique welcome: Yes



Okay, here's my beloved car ^___^
Sadly I don't own it any longer, because it was old and my old man sold it to buy himself a new one (yes, himself. Sold mine. I paid everything on my car).

The registration is photoshopped, but the sign is made all myself ^-^
Hope you like it. (looks a bit uneven, due to angle of the shot)


While I'm not good in drawing big images freehand, I had a rather small drawing and measured many different angles and lengths to create some special points in the sign. Then I multiplied everything by 13 and recreated the image in big that way. Cut the whole image out, fixed it as stencil onto my car and sprayed the sign with car paint, then. Small mistakes (paint went through the paper) has been edited with a brush and turpentine.
I did this 4 or 5 years ago, so the sign is the old dears image as well ^,^"

Now... does this count as Fan art or fan made good? O.o

Awesome. Much bigger than those little stickers on the back window.

Next time you should get vinyl decals made, they can cut out a big plastic sticker from a vector image file and totally pimp out your car XD

I think it counts as awesome.

From the license plate I'm guessing you're German but did anyone ever recognise it or ask you about it? I can't imagine anyone ever knew what it was - they just thought you were the person with the ace design on your bonnet!

This is nice! I made the same artwork for my laptop sticker a year ago.

So Karadin said this is counted both as fan art and fanmade good, now you can nominate this for the next fanbook. ^^

Brave idea I must say!

Hah I bought myself a new car a few months ago.
I was thinking about putting something way smaller related to Gackt on it.
Maybe on it's back.It will be just his name or something like that...
So that everyone can say :"Yeah that's that crazy Gackt that is always stuck in front of me when I'm late."*the siren oooooon*

But part of his lyrics also sounds like a good idea...so I don't know :/

Anyway I like your pimped car.

The red and black combination is perfect - no wonder you didn't want to let go of your custom model. Um - as for category, perhaps we need a new one: car tat!

You know you can get big magnetic panels made up from a pdf or png file? If you have another car to use that you can't do the full tat on (cos it's not yours maybe!), you could still get a magnetic design done for the bonnet or door with a Gackt theme as you wish. They're meant for advertizing (like taxis etc) but they're fine for fanart too.

Thanks for showing your wheels here - think you must win the prize for the BIGGEST piece of fan work on GA. Even without the DE4R5 plate, it's a fantastic gesture to drive about in a Gackt tribute car!
