mtblillie's cars.....again

[mtblillie]

Yes! My favorite mod! I have sort of a bias towards 1989-1994 nascar if you couldn't tell.

I tend to have bias towards early 2000s, because that is when I first started following nascar religiously, but my interest started in early 90s because of Days of Thunder

 

[mtblillie]

Some more cup90:

These round out the last of the cars for both Cup90 and Aero88 for the 1989 Busch Clash. Just one more car to do for Aero88 for the first twin qualifier and then I can start doing the Cup90 cars for that race.

I'll admit I'm getting goosebumps seeing those Monte Carlos on the Cup90 mod. Keep up the great work!

Dude, you're so cool, I got the popcorn ready.

A few more...

 

[mtblillie]

Some Daytona 500/Twin Qualifier field fillers for Cup90.

Also a cup90 version of my fictional 51 Exxon based (sort of) on Days of Thunder

I could not for the life of me get the front lines to line up correctly

A couple more,

Sorry for the lack of updates, work has been a little crazy this month. Here is what I'm working on right now.

I still have a lot of field fillers yet to do for the duel races, but eventually I will work on 1989 BGN for both Aero88 and Cup90.

Also, shameless plug, I have upgraded to a new site.

 

[mtblillie]

Cup90 1989 Greg Sacks #88 before being replaced by Jimmy Spencer.

Slowly but surely getting through the duel race cars.

 

[mtblillie]

67 Mickey Gibbs Monte Carlo, also have a version for Cup90

AeroWar version of Greg Sacks Crisco Pontiac

Also trying my hand at making logos that I need but haven't been able to find:

This is one of the logos on the 88 car.

As an avid Buddy Arrington fan, here's what Mickey's car actually looked like. (Top Right, that's his Monte Carlo) You can get his numbers HERE

I didn't wanna say this because it makes me look picky and annoying, but the blue stripes, hood, and roof are the same color as the number color. Sorry to confuse you.

 

[mtblillie]

I don't mind the feedback, I'm happy to have anyone interested in my work. The difference in color is based on many of the images for Arrington Racing over the years. It appears that the blue was sort of a fluorescent color that reflects light, so from some angles the color blue would look different, especially in the numbers. This is the case in many of the images I have found (including the one you posted), so I made the numbers different.

 

[mtblillie]

Added the 3 Dale Earnhardt Monte Carlo

 

[mtblillie]

My best guess at a couple of 1989 cars that are very rare on references.

 

[mtblillie]

Added a few more cars:

Delma Cowart's car from Daytona. I didn't have any references for it so I used the scheme from his ARCA car, which is consistent with his other cars from that time (white and blue with yellow/red/orange stripes).

Ernie Irvan. Despite the very common Pepsi scheme available at various places, Irvan most commonly drove this car in 1989.

Ricky Woodward

Tony Spanos. This is based on the scheme and model used later in the season, I had no reference for the Daytona car so I'm assuming it is similar.

Trevor Boys. I also did not have a reference for this, however the scheme stayed pretty consistent throughout the 80s. The one thing that frequently changes, however, is the font of the numbers, so this is just a guess.

These are all on Cup90 models, however I do also have AeroWar88 versions at my site.

 

[mtblillie]

Some recently completed Monte Carlos. I will do these for Cup90 as well, but I plan to do some work on the template first.

 

[Thunder98]

Good to see a couple more BGN cars from '89. Good work!
