I did these so long ago! I don't think I'd have the patience to do watercolors like these these days! LOL.

It was a strange and tough thing o paint because there was nothing really recognizable about it.

I really love the mechanical details and colours as they're very realistic in my opinion. I don't know too much about cars, so it's kinda hard to tell which part of the car it is Β

It's the very rear end of the engine. That flat light grey part at the upper left is the rear left tire.

Interesting choice of subject matter! I sort of wish the one spot of color were more visible, but the greyscale with warm/cool areas is working really well.

This is actually the rear end of an open wheel race car.

That "EAGLE" is the tire lettering.

It has a great feel of realism, awesome job

This was probably the most difficult thing I've ever painted for just that reason - its so tonal with no really recognizable imagery.

I am very poor with technical drawing, but I believe that this is a VERY good representation of metals and wires. It is so realistic-looking, the mind is boggled.
