ACCURATE Puma Caricatures

[Cherie]

One thing I've noticed about caricatures of the Puma, is that they don't tend to be that accurate. I've found this is particularly true with the ones that you find at car shows; the 'Koolart' pictures. I've previously e-mailed this artist pointing out errors, and was ignored.


More recently I came across another artist who does car caricatures, there were a couple of errors and omissions for the Puma pictures that he had on his site (mainly props were the only wheels available, and the yellow Puma was wrong), so I e-mailed this guy as well to point it out. I wasn't expecting a reply, but I got one!

The result is that I got an e-mail today to let me know that the Puma caricature range had been updated and expanded to include 9 spoke wheels, where there was previously only props, and the Millennium Edition:

There are eight colours available at the moment, which admittedly, isn't the entire range of colours that was available for the Puma, but Richard is very approachable, and prides himself on the accuracy of his work. So if you want me to request the addition of more colours, I can ask him. I doubt it'd be done quickly, as he's pretty busy, but he will put it on his to-do list.

You'll have to click the links to see the pictures as they're protected and copyrighted, so I'm unable to post them here.

And a black one on sport Ka rims with a yellow stripe

Looks very well priced and good Quality

Good as well that he can put your cars number plate on it and it can become part of the cars history

I don't mind asking for standard Puma options, anything else you'd have to contact him directly, as that would be classed as a custom piece. It would cost more, but it would be something unique. k:

F1 rims were a standard option, (as is a project sunstripe).

the FRP is still incorrect as it doesn't show the flared arches - they are good prints though got 1 for xmas

Looks flared to me next to a standard one:

i don't think they do at all tbh.... the wheels are bigger, filling the arches more but thats it

 

[yippeekiay]

The arches have a pronounced edge to the radius, the front arch connection to the bumper has a curve to the outer edge depicting the wider arch and more clearly is the mid crease along the body that diminishes into the rear arch which is much further away from the main body of the car. Your not looking Zara, you should have spotted those differences seeing as you have an FRP....lol.
