Description Captains Scarlet and Blue are driving somewhere really fast. Good thing they took their sweet ass ride.


I do quite enjoy the Spectrum Cheetah designed by Peter Stevens, while it may not have the same iconic quality of the Mike Trim original it is a really sleek and awesome automotive design, that you can easily picture in the real world. Or at least in a future without wing-mirrors and indicators (not the the original had them either.)

In other news, New Captain Scarlet was 10 years ago, and along with the Thunderbirds movie was one of the biggest influences that got me into film and design, while I don't often revisit it (those vehicles are really hard to model) I do often think back to it while I work.

Out of curiosity, is that my Spectrum logo on the car?

Being honest yes it is, I did a quick google for it thinking it was an official source (kind of a lame excuse considering I have access to the official one.)

If you like I can re-upload the image with a different logo, or I can give you a credit. Either way much apologies.

Ha, it's no problem. Things like this is exactly why I made it in the first place. I've just never seen it 'out in wild' before.

Though by using my one, you inherit all of its … uh … inaccuracies.

Well it was good enough to fool me, The only real difference i can see now is it's that it's missing the white outline.

I just went back to some episodes of New Captain Scarlet and I don't know how I ever missed that outline.

Awesome job! Well, you already got a few! I started work on a Cheetah a few years back, but like you said, they're hard to model so I never finished it, I did an attempt on the Rhino a few years back (it's somewhere in my gallery I think) but never got round to remake that one, I still would like all the NCS vehicles as 3D models, they make awesome art! You nailed the shape on this one though! I'd kill to have this one in my collection, so if you're willing to share, let me know Looking forward on seeing more! I also loved the Bison as well, next one, the Rhino?

I can send it over if you'd like, i was kind of lazy with the texture and it's not transformable. Cheated in photoshop a little.

Really? o.O That would be sooo cool dude! And no worries with the textures, who doesn't cheat in photoshop right?, that's what it's for I'll send you a PM.
