One of Syd Mead's most famous car illustration is actually being built.
The original illustration is the top picture. And the master himself is in the bottom picture, next to a model version of its design.
Syd Mead super fan Mel Francis has built the model. And intends to build a fully drivable version soon!
Which would be quite an achievement.
I am aslo a big fan of Mr.Mead and have had the pleasure of meeting him twice over the years.
And I must admit, I did buy that little Hotwheel version of his Sentinel Limousine a few years ago...
