"A Tale of Three Birds"
#42 Dan Gurney (1970 Motor Trend 500) - Car 2 of 3
by: nolimitphil
Preface:
Greetings, fellow Stunod Racing members! This is my first foray into sharing paint schemes with the NR2003 community!
When it comes to modeling, you could say I'm a rivet counter. Each paint scheme I produce is intended to be prototypical to the race-specific vehicle it is based on, referencing historical photographs and archival footage. This means accurate contingency stickers, sponsors, etc., for every individual file.
Each download contains a high and low resolution version.
Hi-Res: 2048x2048 car / 1024x1024 pit
Low-Res: 1024x1024 car / 512x512 pit
I hope you enjoy my work as much as I do!
