WillOhio's Paper Model Race Cars and Ephemera

Hi! Will here.

Super big fan of racing of all kinds. For years (before I got a 3d resin printer) I made paper cars for the Formula Dé racing game.


Here are a few examples:





More currently I am working on a series of models for a few different Drag Racing games and getting my feet wet on some larger designs.
Currently these test models are at 1:87 scale or about 2.00 inches long. These are based on the 2015 era funny cars but with throwback
paint jobs to Funny Cars from the 1970's. It is from an article I read on Competition25. Where they asked 20 of the top FC drivers to choose
a favorite driver from the past to base their paint jobs on. Anyway, 18 more to go, well 20 really....








I've designed a few drag racing game track surfaces and assorted design elements. Here's a shot





The track is my design. The track parts are mine (3d printed) with graphic work on the banner, etc. The cars are an old 1990's era Racing Champions 1:144 ProStock cars.The bleachers
on the infield are shapes taken from some free 3d paper terrain for Formula De. I just added all the racing specific banners. This is a stand in till I get my designs finished.
