Having a difficult time carving out time these days to do new work so I
thought I'd do another repost. Bear with me please! Above, one of my
earliest chops, 2006, a Bentley Blue Train coupe. Meant to evoke the
fabulous Bentley Boys of the early part of the 20th century, my flagship
coupe uses retro cues in a modern way. Although the technicality of
these two renderings is flawed, I still like the designs quite a bit.
Using a name from Facel-Vega's history, the Excellence is a perfect
range-topping sedan. The rear door cutlines extend into the roof
creating "ears" like the '67-'71 Thunderbird 4-door for easier entry. I
scanned one of my late grandmother's bracelets to use in this "ad" much
like Cadillac did in the 1950s, setting the tone for their intended
audience. Again, there are many technical flaws with these early works,
but I like the design.
