Default Car renderings by Kris Horton

If you guys are interested in having a rendering and/or poster made of your favorite car[s], Kris Horton really does a nice job. His renderings make for a neat display at shows or just hanging in your garage taking up wall space. I emailed Kris the cruddy picture on top, then a couple weeks later he emailed me this rendering beneath that I had made into a framed poster. Although his art is not intended to exactly replicate the image/car he's drawing [he uses some artistic license]...there's no doubt which car it is. He gives you the final say on all the details of the rendering, but I've found it rarely necessary to change his 1st rendition. Anyways...I highly recommend Kris, and the best way to reach him is via email: [email protected]

That is striking.
How long did it take him to do?
Whats the frame size of the Final product?
Does he attend major car gatherings doing just this?

Depending on his day job schedule, it usually takes Kris a couple weeks to complete a rendering. The poster is 24 X 36 framed. Kris' business is word of mouth and his web page, plus he displays his work at car shows with his Pro-Touring Chevelle. Prices vary, depending on whether he has ever done a rendering of your particular make/model car, plus it's more expensive if he does the interior of the car [like with my convertible 57 Chevy]. I would say the average price range is $350-500 for the rendering, not including the paper poster. There's a company in the SF Bay area that does the paper posters, and they run about $25-30 each for small quantity orders.

For more examples of his art work, check out the many renderings he's done and posted on www.lateral-g.net

He's about half done and here's the progress update that Kris sent me last night of my RS COPO Camaro.

Very cool.. Make sure he doesn't forget the vinyl top! I like the white letters on the Tiger Paws.
