"Hold my beer" - Alexander Rossi. 💪

240mph, concrete walls and all cars running the same spec. There is no greater test of driver and commitment and it's a hairs breath between winning and loosing. Despite this scary crash during Monday’s practice session for the 110th Indianapolis 500, and subsequent surgeries, Alexander Rossi is expected to drive in the race later this weekend.

I've been immersed in this all week and falling in love with IndyCar wasn't something I expected but it's epic racing. IndyCar vehicles reach top speeds of over 240 mph (386 km/h) on high-speed ovals like the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, with qualifying averages often exceeding 230 mph.

When you won't see the driver but you'd notice if the car didn't have one.

IndyCar V Airbus A321XLR

The Airbus A321XLR is so beautifully proportioned that it's easy to loose sight of its scale and I still find myself thinking the math is wrong when I look at the @aerlingus IndyCar parked beside it in an previsual overview test.

Be still my beating heart.

I've been wrestling with the scale relationship of the Aer Lingus IndyCar and the Aer Lingus Airbus A321XLR and how to combine them with equal impact but with deference to their Individual scale and functionality. Cropping to the car would only include the wheel of the landing gear unless I placed the aircraft at distance and both those compositions are boring and then I remembered the U-2 landing procedure which appropriately has a high performance car as an integral component. Hey, if it's worth doing it's worth doing right.

Because of design compromises due to its extreme altitude ability the U-2 when landing relies on chase car "wingman on the ground" to assists the U-2 pilot from just behind the aircraft with altitude calls, alignment and safety

AerLingus landing for the Indy 500. I can see that.

Ok let's go!

May is upon us and the countdown to the Indianapolis 500 has begun. Arguably the best test of driver talent because unlike F1, which is as much an engineering as a driver competition, all Indy cars run on the same specs.

IndyCar vehicles reach top speeds of over 240 mph (386 km/h) on high-speed ovals like the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, with qualifying averages often exceeding 230 mph.

Created to mark the beginning of direct @aerlingus flights to @indairport its a 2026 IndyCar and the livery echos the dominant white of the aircraft and the dynamic tail swirl as much as is practicable with the much narrower shape. There remains large areas for Aer Lingus affiliated brands which I will add before final renders.

This Indycar has been built with high density geometry and large texture files to facilitate highly detailed renders at 14,204 x 10,652 pixels equivalent to a Phase One EQ camera.

Drop me an email if you have thoughts on an interesting project to support your marketing.

Painting capsule textures from life.

More work in progress updates.

The modelling and painted elements are created to sustain renders to 16k and highly detailed prints to billboard size.

Drawing the capsule model was an education in their clever engineering and functionality and it's an area I will explore further with personal work featuring "Meds" which have had massive cultural significance.

Speeded up work in progress, rough clay renders, drawing supplements which will feature in stills and animations. It's a high density model to stand up to subdivision to enable even zoom detail renders up to 14k

Measurement is absolute. Mitutoyo is for when you don't understand "close enough"

Trying to explain subdivision modelling to noobs, particularly the importance of point and edge positioning for structural integrity of the model.

Work in progress - Rough clay draft render to check over typology. Full stages drawings to follow as well as fully textured final renders.

It's drawing but in 3D.

Another high density model to sustain renders up to 150 Megapixel renders even when zoomed. 14204 × 10652 pixels.

Created with subdivision surface modeling in other to facilitate lower mesh densities for animated renders.

The Celtic knot is unique to @kstatefb helmets having been added for their game in the @aerlingus College Football Classic in Dublin. The knot was overlayed on the helmet but I fancied the challenge of putting it below the metallic fleck.

I'm increasingly asked about my process so here's a speeded break down of work in progress drawing a @drcoys chocolate bar which will feature in stills and animations. It's a high density model to perfectly replicate the chocolate curvature and be able to stand up to 150 Megapixel renders even when zoomed. 14204 × 10652 pixels.
