Nissan S15 Driftworks

Nissan Silvia S15, professional D1 team competition drift car of Driftworks, 2010 build.

Detail shot

"The car made 696bhp on the ProTuner super accurate dyno, and that was with wheel spin. We don’t know the actual number." Probably around 800

Size: A3

Made with:
- Graphite pencils 2B-8B
- Pastel pencils (Colors mixed/blended from 3 main color dusts)

Time spent: ~30 hours

First time actually experimenting with colors, wanted to use as few pencils as possible.
Using sandpaper with the pastel pencils, I mixed colors to create shades on my own.

I came to realize, that, while it does work on larger areas, it's extremely hard to actually draw with such selfmade colors as powder...

The front DRIFTWORKS text that I had thought was gonna be a nice-and-easy part is a good example.


Thanks for any feedback!
