BMW E46 Brad Gill - Illustration
The big question
How far can you push a drift car into colour before it stops looking like the car?
Pink and purple with an acid green accent, and the E46 still reads as the E46.
The goal was to take a Japanese-style drift build and run it through our own abstract CM style, with pink and purple over acid green pointing back to an older era.

The brief
Bradgill runs this BMW E46 as a Japanese-style build, and the artwork had to sit in CM’s abstract style rather than a straight rendering of the car. Pink and purple carry both views with acid green on the details, so the poster lands in retro wave while the car stays recognisable.
