E39 M5 ad recreation

Domadom Design · 07-26-2021, 09:37 PM

I've been making vector illustrations of cars for over three years and recently I've fell in love with old car ads, especially BMW ones. I've made this M5 ad that is inspired by several real advertisements from when the car was brand new and added some fictional touches.
The car is illustrated completely from scratch with vector graphics, without any raster objects in it.
Let me know what you guys think and if anyone is interested in seeing their own car illustrated, hit me up!

Must have been a lot of work doing this with vectors. Great job!

Looks great! I love the E39 M5 and especially in Imola Red ;-)

Incredible work man. Front bumper looks slightly off but if you didn't post that close-up of it I'd have thought this was a photo of the e39 m5. Seriously stunning and I may take you up on illustrating one of my cars

This looks amazing! Well done! I'm intrigued, though... When you say:

What does this mean? (Sorry - Photoshop, etc. isn't really my thing!). Do you mean you've hand drawn this in some way - like on a Wacom tablet or something?

It looks too perfect for that! But I might be wrong

Really interested to hear how you produce a final image as stunning as this

If you don't have a YouTube channel, you should definitely create one - I'd love to watch the process!
