The iconic Citroën DS as a cut away design

The Citroën DS is a beautiful car both in design and technology.  In a time where most cars had rigid axles, leaf springs, drum brakes and sometimes air cooled engines,  Citroën came with the DS. A car with pneumatic hydraulic suspension for all wheels, disc brakes in the front, and engine with feul injection ( later models ), front wheel drive and swiveling headlights 😍. So when I wanted to create a cut away shirt design the DS was a obvious choice. 

Here is the pencil drawing:


And the finished design:


An sepia version:


Of course available on many products:


There are 6 versions,  a version with background in a soft color palet and a sepia version. A version without background in soft and sepia colors.  And to complete a very simple light and dark line-art for dark and light colored shirts.  My personal favorite is the sepia with just the car 😊.

The design is available at Teepublic and Neatoshop,  see links at my "links" page in my blogsite. 

Feel free to leave any comment or suggestion.  

Until next time,  have a great day.
