Ferrari 308 Brawler

Based in Spain, Carlos Pecino, also know as ColorSponge is a 3D artist with more than 15 years of  experience in the digital world. Over the years he has put all his creativity in diverse fields as photography, design and composition together to make hyperrealistic images for advertising projects. For his latest creation he has applied his obsession and seek for perfection to one of the most most beautiful Pininfarina designs ever - the Ferrari 308. Making an improvement to something which is already perfect is an almost impossible task, but we think he nailed it in this build. Named "THE BRAWLER" this Ferrari 308 GTS is what he considers the perfect balance between brutality and elegance. In this design Carlos tried to keep the general essence of the original Pininfarina design with subtle changes here and there (no extra body kits, no crazy spoilers...) then combining with big Hoosier race wheels to get the extra aggressive look, similar to the classic Nascar race cars from the 80s.

You can find behind the scenes glimpses of his work on his Instagram account, or follow his surreal designs directly from his Behance page.

Crane DeTomaso Pantera

Taking inspiration from Carlo Pecino AKA Colorsponge and his spectacular Ferrari 308 Brawler, Daniel Crane from Crane Designs has given the iconic 1971-1975 DeTomaso Pantera a modern twist. The Italian machine was one of the greatest supercars ever to be built, and making an improvement to something which is already perfect is an almost impossible task, but we think Daniel nailed it in this build. He maintained the hard-edged wedge shape, but modified and updated so...

BRUBAKER BOX MINIVAN

German-based industrial designer Samir Sadikhov has reimagined the legendary design of Curt Brubaker, whom originally created a kit designed to fit on the chassis of a Volkswagen Beetle, converting them to Box Vans. Brubaker´s work also directly influenced the design of the Tesla Cybertruck. Sadikhov stays true to the metallic finish but adds wooden bumpers, and a slightly softer low-poly design that is more approachable and friendly. Sadikhov says: "in terms ...
