First Fridolin drawing ever!!! I know right???!!!
« on: June 19, 2017, 07:04:36 PM »
25 years doin this...never got to do a Fridolin until last week. 

Quick history.  It's a VW.  Only like 1000 were made.  used as mail trucks in Sweden.  Today there are less than 150 in existence and only 20 or so viable.  (I think).  There's only like 6 or 8 in the US and I got to do one.

So...Here's the render vid so you can see how it happened.

I've never seen or heard of that one, pretty cool. I had a '64 Karmann Ghia in '72 until a girlfriend racked it up...
