I've been looking for photos of Richie from 83-84 of the car from the right front/nose/right rear. A down low RF 3/4 shot would be perfect, on track from that type of angle, even better. Haven't been too lucky with what's online-everything is from the left side-anyone have anything like this that they'd like to share? Thanks!
This is the only one I can find from 83. At New Smyrna, FL

Thanks Mike, but I was looking for the other side of the car. Doing some art, here's the first vector illustration I just finished up today...

I think you have it pretty close. The numbers were a chrome airbrush look early in 83, then he went to the black with white outline like you have. Sure looks like his car to me, great work!

Here is 1983.
Here is 1984.
These pictures are right in your back yard!!!!
Howie Hodge's!!!!
Closer look at last link showed this:http://www.racerhub.com/photos/showp...hp?photo=55371
Which is the Right side Always Look thru Howies pic Ah the Memories there
Good pick up....
I just grabbed the first one I found in Howie's galleries and posted it....
He also said he wanted the other side...
Thanks guys-Phil C hooked me up with the shot I was looking for & I'm already rollin' on drawing #2.
I had all the posted pics by Howie-he usually shoots from the infield, hence the left side shots-since I'm doing a 2 car layout, having different angles is a necessity.
kchez that is some awesome work
Thanks for the compliments guys-here the (somewhat) final version of what I was doing. Still need to do some detail work on the cars, but for what I need it for (sample shirt design for a flyer) it'll work!

Nice work, what program are you using?
I second that question. Nice work....
:wave: to Kevin....long time....
Great work! Make the shirts, I would buy one.

Yea same here man. Awesome work :cheers:
Thanks for the props guys!
Kevin-this was done entirely in Corel Draw.
While I could probably sell a bunch of these, I think it would be unethical of me to be producing items for sale that I don't have the rights to do. This was just a sample project to show what I can offer to race teams. The only way it would get produced is if the Evans family wanted it done or gave permission first hand. Other than that, I wouldn't feel right about it.

maybe you could do several different types... a lot of drivers don't make enough $$$ off of souvenirs, and i'm sure they would appreciate extra $$
Great work, looks almost like the front of a box of Wheaties. Too bad they never recognized that group of 'athletes' beyond Dale Sr.
I'll get Richie's number tomorrow and PM you.Quote:
