Phantom Wagon

Description

Figured I'd share this one.... It's one of the two pieces I was fortunate to have had published in Rod and Custom Magazine... (see my Journal for more on this)
It's a 1956 Olds two door hard top station wagon, which Oldsmobile never made. It's based off of the Chevy Nomad/Pontiac Safari idea, but I went ahead and added a glass panel roof, as a take-off on the later Olds Vista Cruiser wagons... as well as some blatant customization, keeping the look of the car rooted in the '56-'58 era, with mild de-chroming, lowering, cutom grille and paintwork....
Illustrator CS2, starting from a pencil sketch I originally created about four years ago

Beautiful automotive artwork, and congratulations on the magazine feature!

Yeah, I think GM should've made that wagon too...I'm sure the public would've loved to own one, especially with the glass roof panel!

P.S.: I like your avatar...I think it's funny!
