I think to custom the outside of my S4 green mettallic with a paint , same as top hight level art technic as you can see on some lorries.

What is your opinion about ?

The Esprit shape is an art signed Guigiaro ( !!!! .... the , and a paint with a symbol of power draw in speed attitude on each side could be more than an art car she is but an art expression more power full.

Later I will give you my symbol choice.

We have seen Patrick's life size comic book guardians and demons etc,

I assume Patrick intends to have some fantasy artwork on his S4, you do

see stuff like this on lorries (sword wielding mermaids wrestling gorgons etc).

What do you have in mind Patrick?

:D

Mate... it's your car, you can do what you like with it.... as long as you realise that in all probability it will reduce the car's value to the tune of the cost of respraying any airbrushed panels (UNLESS! You're really lucky and find someone who wants an Epsrit with artwork on it! :D )

Make your choice of image carefully imho :)

Possibly... also choose WHERE you do it carefully - eg just on the bonnet and it suddenly becomes very simple (and cheaper) to put back to standard if necessary :P

I will be very interested to see it

Patrick it would look best if the muraling was subtle (shades of green tones?) and could only be seen up close to the car (like its buried inside the paint) :D

It would not look good if it was loud and could be seen from Kilometers away :)

Ok got one...

In metallic green hues, Giorgetto Giugiaro (as a warlock) and Peter Stevens

(as a shaman) fighting with swords, on top of a mountain of burning goodyear

NCT's. In the background you could have a lake of fire with semi clad valkyrie

stood around a Turbo Esprit that is giving birth to demons out of it's exhaust.

now we all have a sufficient model to copy. I'm installing a black velvet headliner and painting that on it.

Patrick, this is what Im getting at.

This is a Harley tank I painted ages ago.

Its all shades of candy apple green

Its hard to photograph, but there are flames and a Harley -Davidson logo in there.

From a distance It just looks like a deep green bike :D

Hi dears Lotus drivers,

Thank's very very much for yours very interesting answers, clever suggestions and for the hight level of your know wellknown sens of humour, and for Giugiaro....

I think about the paint could be one on each sides of my S4 / one Dragon in "very hight speed attitude" one with a cup of tea in his hand with a feeling of a quick serving necessary and the other starting to eat a scones and with a "walk dragon" in his ears . The head of each Dragon will be in direct inspiration from the special and very up to date "head and neck" Dragon paint by Salvator Rosa in 1648. Jason charming the dragon.

best regards

Patrick

Interesting....

Like to see a photoshop mock up 1st, can't quite visualise it.

It might work very well....if it were me though I'd try and get it semi descrete....impact is so much better when people stare and go...wow... when they get whats being shown - infact, exactly like the Harley tank above, that's exactly how I would do the job.
