I discovered modding some days after I bought Grand Theft Auto IV. I was surfing on the net when I fell on a Ferrari 430 mod, and was perplexed to see a car like that in-game. It's been 2 years now since I discovered modding and since then I'm still working on my modding technique every single day!

First of all, my greetings to everyone! What could I tell you? The designer by education, I work in the field of VFX, during the same time I am torn between love to cars and design of interiors, particularly furniture.I am keen in photo, inclined to laziness, love music and another set of universal banalities.
The idea behind this car came mainly from a love of sci-fi and vehicle designs. The engineering of F1 and Aircraft is also something that always blows me away, so I wanted to try and develop something that would blend the two areas together somehow.
The design started as a really low-poly blockout that I made in my lunch break at work.
From child hood I drew everywhere I could – old family’s books, documents, even our photo albums! Oh my God, I miss that time so much! At school I spent a lot of time sketching before and after lessons, then colouring the eyes of faces in my text books during math and physics. Later, I’ve managed to use it properly.
