This project has always held a special place in my heart. I can still vividly recall the first day I began sketching as a university student. It's been about a year since I graduated. During my work on this massive custom car design, I also had the honor of winning the Bburago car design competition for their 50th anniversary. Talk about hitting two birds with one stone! From the initial sketches to the 3D concept modeling and the production modeling of the carbon shell, I handled it all myself. I'm Fatih Mehmet Yelkenci, also known as Yelkencidesign.
This custom Benz and Anta Sportiva share quite a few similarities, like their almost identical front splitters, true siblings of design! Both feature impressive spoilers, black rear ends with different colored fronts, and striking gold rims. Most importantly, they’re both wide and low, which adds to their aggressive look!
