Edit to update a lot of info.

Hi all, as a hobby I run glencordle.com and I'm on Instagram @glen.cordle creating high quality Porsche-centric artwork. In the beginning I was doing entirely vector based illustrations, I have now converted over to 3D digital modeling and image rendering from those models.

I don't really have the time to do personal commissions these days, if you're interested in a commission you can email me info@glencordle.com I charge $150/hr for design work IF I have time to bring on new projects. I have a regular day job and a family, so I can't devote a ton of time to this.

I am a contributor to 000 Magazine, you can see my work in the "Build" starting with issue #007.

Now, for some examples of my work:

After a long delay finishing up some big projects, I was finally able to start on the personal project I've been wanting to do since the day I bought my 914.

And then with a few changes, I made this.

These will be going up on my Society6 shop soon if anyone wants very high quality prints.

Getting some more 914 drawings rolling.

First, here's what my current 914 project will look like once it's finished. Tangerine 914 with Dan Gurneys
IPB Image

I have this as living document, I can change colors, wheels, etc. Even change layers that I made, one with reflections of a narrow body car, and the other with the reflections of the GT widebody car.

This would of course be the GT, this time in Signal orange.

And a 914-6 in Willow Green
IPB Image

Another 914 with blacked out Fuchs and color matched bumpers. Top off here.
IPB Image

I can also create one without the appearance package, just haven't yet. So far I only have the Fuchs and the Gurneys set up, once I draw a few more common wheels for 914's I'll post them. Will probably do the 2.0 Fuchs, some Minilites, who knows what else.

Let me know if any of you guys want a print of your car, if it falls into any of these options it'll be cheap.

Sexy! Do you do 928s?

I have one 928 under my belt, here's a low res image of it.

Some of you might like this. Large poster prints available, have not yet figured out pricing though, going to get a few test prints made and go from there.

IPB Image

I created this based off of the original blueprint, line by line, so that it's recreated in vector format. Omitted a few things and revised the title block, may make some revisions before I print.

Edit: old info

Alright, 914 blueprint posters are ready to go. The artwork was recreated line by line, with some changes here and there (i.e. Fuchs)

I have 3 standard sizes, but can accomodate other sizes. Again, since everything I do is vector, I can enlarge or shrink it to whatever size is needed.

Sorry, no 914 content in this post, but I did just complete a run of all 15 1973-1974 IROC Carrera RSR's.

AWESOME, could you run a poster with all those IROC cars on one sheet?

Yes! It's already in the works, finalizing the poster still with correct margin and bleed, but it'll look something like this.

Some of my premium custom illustrations, these three were completed for one client/collector. These are all 100% vector.

Thought you all might like to see one of my latest illustrations, this one inspired by Eric @ PMB and his ORV 914 build.

Still need to go back in and add some mudflaps. And I'd like to create another version with it covered in mud.

Just wanted to sling a little update in here. A few things to note

-I am suspending sales of any/all Porsche artwork. At least until I can get some answers on IP and copyright rights and laws. Trying to work out what it will take to get licensed and if it's financially worth it. I can still do bespoke artworks under the direction of a client, but I can't create an artwork on my own and market/sell it to multiple people.

-I continue to post all of my stuff on Instagram @glen.cordle free of charge of course.

-I am still a contributor for 000 magazine. From what I understand the laws that govern media and publications are different than what an artist can do solo. I'm sure there's a lot more that goes into it on their end.

And that's about it. Since I'm not selling anything via this thread anymore I'll probably let it slip into the abyss. I'll update my post in the main forum from time to time with new stuff. Cheers!

I'd also be interested in T-shirts. Print on Hanes beefy T's, quality print on a quality T-shirt. Let me know if you ever offer.
