  6. Alpine A210 (1966-1969)

    Their wonderfully shaped bodywork is made of fiberglass and is mounted on a tubular chassis so that these beautiful racecars weight less than 700kg. It is also only 1 meter high. This very model is powered by an inline-4 1,3L 100kW engine. These runners were able to ride at 250km/h. The drivers did not make it onto the podium of the Le Mans endurance races but their cars win the fuel economy and performance index.

  14. Geschichte eines Gemälde

    Ich hob meine Hand als auf Arbeit eine alte Leinwand abzugeben war. Ich hatte im August 2025 gerade Acrylfarben gekauft, weil ich meinen Fahrradhelm bemalen wollte, aber nun war die Chance für etwas Größeres.

    Ich hatte schon eine Idee. 2026 feiert mein virtuelles Motorsport-Team RaceCar 25 Jahre Jubiläum. Das Jahr gehört mit meinem Co-Gründer Felix zu feiern. Wir hatten schon lange drüber geredet Wandbilder zu drucken, doch nun war hier diese leere Leinwand.

    Ich hab seit Schulzeiten nicht gemalt und war damals mit Tusche eher erfolglos. Am Ende meiner Schulzeit bekam ich von meiner Kunstlehrerin die Bilder zurück, die sie jahrelang als Antibeispiele verwendet hat. Zeichnen ist keine Stärke von mir – aber digitale Visualisierungen kann ich. Also ging es los mit zwei Motiven, die ich als Vektoren digital nachgezeichnet habe. Einerseits die Umrandungen, anderseits dann in 15 Ebenen, die verschiedenen Grundfarben der Palette. Ich konnte verschiedene Hintergründe probieren und hatte so eine Vorlage, an der ich bereits wusste, wo ich hinwill und in welcher Reihenfolge alle Elemente gemalt werden müssen.

    Gestartet hab ich mit zwei A4-Probebilder an denen ich Pinsel und Farben getestet habe. Ich ich ließ meinen Projektor von der Decke auf meinen Tisch projizieren und musste “nur” noch nachmalen. Sobald die Grundformen stehen, ging es ohne weiter.

    Nach den Testbildern ging es an das Große. Auf 110x90cm übermalte ich erst die alten Aufdrücke. Ich liebe an Gemälden die Oberfläche, die Dreidimensionalität der Farbe, die Maserung. Diese erste weiße Schicht brachte Unebenheit, Textur. Druck ist glatt, sauber. Malerei ist uneben, ich mag das Unperfekte, das Zufällige. Ich hatte einige Inspirationen für den Stil, den ich wollte. Ich bin Fan des Impressionismus und mag die Abstraktion des Expressionismus. Der flüchtige Moment, aber im Chaos des Abstrakten.

    Nach dem großflächigen Hintergrund kamen Schichten für Details und Schattierungen. Für die silbernen Linien und manche Blau-Schattierungen nutzte ich Metallic-Farben. Das Silber ergänzte ich später sogar mit silbernem Nagellack.

    Über den Oktober trug ich so über 14 Abende Farbschicht nach Farbschicht auf. Dies ging sehr reibungslos, während gleichzeitig ein Umzug eine Deadline brachte zu der ich fertig werden wollte. Ende Oktober war es abgeschlossen. Ich ließ es einen Monat liegen und korrigierte danach nur noch einige Kleinigkeiten und unterschriebs.

    Ich bin mit dem Ergebnis sehr Happy und überrascht wie leicht man ohne Vorkenntnisse zu tollen Ergebnissen kommen kann. Es gab Learnings bzgl Strichrichtungen, Maserung und Malen an den Rändern, wo rauf ich in Zukunft besser achten kann. Allgemein hat sich für mich der Spruch geprägt: Du brauchst kein Talent, du brauchst du nur gute Vorbereitung.

    Fertig eingepackt wartet es nun auf die Übergabe. Felix wusste von nichts und es wurde eine schöne Überraschung beim kürzlichen Besuch.

    Und nun? Ich habe weitere Bildideen, die ich jetzt ohne Zeitdruck verfolge. Einige Work-In-Progress werde ich auf Mastodon posten, sobald was zu sehen ist. Mal sehen was als nächstes kommt.
    Der Fahrradhelm ist indes immer noch nicht bemalt.

  15. When I wrote "Going Nowhere Fast" (GNF) many years ago, I also wrote a companion "Car #Setup Guide" (CSG), as a quick reference on how to set up the #raceCar in the pits and how to adapt one's driving technique to rein in a recalcitrant car once out of the pits. Of course, to read CSG, one must already know race car dynamics, suspension geometry, engine power curves, drive train design, etc., which was the purpose of a complete reference like GNF. Here is CSG.

  23. 🧵 1/2

    Every Sunday I look back at the preceding week in Kpop and pick out a music video or performance that I have particularly liked. This week I have chosen izna – Racecar.

    A difficult choice this week, but I finally settled on this “Racecar” stage.

    The song does not have a fully sung chorus, but I am not one of those who make it an inflexible rule to damn the “empty chorus” The prechorus works very well, and I like the vocals. I do wish the song had been extended.

    I chose this stage because a restrained use of colour achieved that “unity without uniformity” look which I find so appealing. Kpop does not have to be all eyepopping colour and more of everything.

    Look at the reply I am appending to this post to compare this stage with ….
