Styrofoam F1 Car Created by Micheal A. Salter

[Slife]

An artist called Micheal A Salter used styrofoam and created an F1 car. Salter has many sculptures made from styrofoam, and you can visit his website to see more.

LOL! look at those winglets at the back

It probably needs some ballast somewhere, and I suspect serious graining issues from the tires.

The curious thing is I went to high school with a Mike Salter, and since his older brother was named Andrew, and since families often name their first born after their grandfather and second born getting the same middle name, which could account for the "A."

I have actually been working on something similar, but using cnc machined and injection moulded foam.

This thing is killer simply for finding and using pre-made pieces, and shaping them to make this car.

Imagine a purposefully built racer with an epoxy shell, and a polyurethane continuous coating.

That is what I am currently doing...

Looks like the artist used a transformer toy as a model. What's up with the sidepods? Awful. I've seen better renditions made in chocoate.

I presume he just needs a girlfriend or a job

It looks like it's made from recycled old packaging , hence its slightly 'compromised' look, rather than styled to look exactly like an F1 car.

That was terrible

But can you imagine what a standing start might look like? Clouds of styrofoam powder floating into the atmosphere and trails of white skidmarks on the tarmac.

I still prefer the chocolate F1 cars. Yum. F1 never tasted so good.

Just saying artist out loud can get you laid, actually being one that produces means you need a stick to beat them away.

A good tradeoff for being constantly broke until you (possibly) become successful.

I wish.

You don't know my pain.
