Incredible artist!

Hi Craig,

What an incredible talent you have!! I'm not sure what the correct protocol is for asking to have you do your magic for my wife's ride but, I'm hoping you can do one for us. We just love our cabrio! Thank you in advance.



Absolutely incredible! Even better than I would've hoped for! You provide such a valuable service to the mini community.

Amazing Artwork

Hi Craig, I'm new the forum and would love to get one of your renderings done of my mini. Its an R56 MCS in Laser Blue with White roof & mirror caps. It also has white sport stripes & spot lamps. It spends most of it's time with roof bars and a pair of cycle carriers on the roof but I think one without would be a better option. Unless you feel up to the challenge of doing both?

A "Cars" style rendering would be awesome.

The Cars nickname is Monkey which would be great to get on the license plate. I'll leave the rest to your imagination. I've attached the only piccie I could find on the mac.

Many Thanks Craig.

Sorry, i meant hood!

Probably noticed the stripes are in the wrong place on my signature. The sport stripes are quite a new addition as is the chrome bonnet scoop which I completely forgot to mention!

Cheers

I would like to humbly request a Cars style avatar of my car. An S with a Cooper chrome grill (I love my grill, thanks Kelly ) If I could make a request, blue eyes please. It's BRG, looks rather dark in this pic though.

I have admired your work for a number of years now and have searched your posted galleries for a Pepper White Sidewalk MINI. Have you ever done one of those? Thanks to MiniBee, scissors and a scanner I slapped together my own little Sig but it sure is nothing close to the beautiful work that you do. MINImowse and I would be honored if someday you drew a sweet little Pepper White Sidewalk MINI.

hi Craig, can you get one done for my white silver cooper s camden please? I'm a canadian too so something similar to IamLili's would be really nice, I don't want to copy it completely though!

My camden is on the way now so she doesnt have a name yet!

Cheers

We need you to make a poster.

Do a poster and I'll bet you will sell a lot of them. Advertise them on NAM and the other Mini sites as well as E-Bay or Craigs list. It is very good what you do.

Here are two pics of it (MINI's name is "COOP"):





Cheers

Here's the only photos I have so far...

Craig, sorry to be a pain mate but there have been a few changes to "Monkey"

- The white vipers have gone in favour of an offset black thick/thin stripe.
- Chrome bonnet scoop has gone
- Grille surround is now black (Not shown in pics)
- Mirror covers in black (Not shown in pics) But if you could do one with white mirrors and one with black mirrors that would be awesome mate!
- GoBadges twisty road grille badge (If possible??)
-Keep the number plate as MONKEY

Finally (Sorry!) Could you do the signature with no club badges and just a Laser Blue owners club badge.

Your'e a legend mate, thanks very much

Craig, I'm quite new to NAM but just love your work. I would also greatly appreciate it if you would perform your magic on my MINI truck. We call it "Cooper 'Camino".

Thank you in advance!

Hi Craig: I have an unusual combination for an R50. I understand why you may be unable to replicate the stripes (which may change one day, nonetheless), but any chance that you could work your considerable talent and magic on my beloved MINI? Thank you!
