Haha, the thing with people like Pixar is that THEY"VE taken all their designs from stuff already fully realised in popculture. This is a good example of parrallel influences.
Coy has always been big on anthrotech! I love it! A car-person in an art studio, intruiging. And I love that the name of the town sounds Italian, quite fitting for a sports car.
Thanks. In this case, it wasn't so much imitating Pixar, though that WILL be said, as it was drawing from the same roots of the great automotive cartoonists of the 60's and 70's. You will see similarities in the world, of course... and some real differences.
