Jaw-Dropping Concept Car From The 1950s

I'm back to my ancestral drawing desk. Right now, I'm finishing a character design job which I guess would make every other animation designer's heart sing too, having this on the desk :) Anyway, this post is not about the job itself but rather about some inspirational things related to getting the right "designing spirit" or mood for the project, in the means of shapes and forms. Like the Alfa Romeo B.A.T. (Berlinetta Aerodinamica Tecnicas)


More about this beautiful concept car over here...

Apropos inspiration, I found this aircraft gem somewhere on the internet, fantastic, isn't it?
