Obviously this is a very important year for Mustang enthusiasts, and it’s one I’ve been waiting for for at least four years- since the first whispers of the Iosis and EVOS started circulating the design community. For me, gen 5 Mustangs have been the most enticing complete package compared to the other contemporary muscle car offerings from Detroit; the advanced engines and close attention to proportion put the Mustang ahead by a few car lengths. I was at first reluctant to generate a rendering for the anniversary model; it may have been nice to just wait and see the real thing. But after poring over responses to earlier renderings, I was shocked to see so many people claiming to drop their allegiance to the Stang like a hot potato. I have faith this is going to be an amazing looking car, so I had to represent it in a way that would put the masses at ease and win back their hearts. The design was derived from spy photos of test cars and the Ford EVOS concept car. It is a photo-sampled digital painting and was generated in one evening.
