Description Saleen S7R
Saleen introduced the S7, the first true American supercar. The Saleen S7R’s 7-liter racing V8 generates 600 horsepower and is capable of speeds in excess of 200 miles per hour. With its extreme ground effects engineering, the car could be driven upside down at 160 mph and still stay attached to the road !!

Vector | Illustrator CS2 | 20+ hrs
Well this is my most complex vector piece so far. Took about 3 weeks on and off to complete, glad it is finally done.
No mesh on this one, just normal fill, gradients and blends.
Thanks to *CRWPitman for the blending tutorial.

As usual CnCs are welcome

p3nx In reply to audofit [2008-06-29 21:46:55 +0000 UTC]

If you want to go with realistic style, don't use too many outlines for your vector, and try to draw as much detail as possible, it will give more realistic looks. Use the color picker to choose realistic color from your reference image.
Hope this tips helps
