request for a fantasy renault

The 2007 Renault livery has caused considerably controversy. The white, dark blue and orange parts look okay but the yellow and blue nose doesn’t quite fit in with the new ING colours. Some have likened it to a clown car while others just call it hideous. It recently finished last in poll on 2007 liveries.

Having seen the car in action and the great pictures by Nuvolari, I wonder if a better livery wouldn’t have been possible?

So my question is, could the esteemed artists on this forum perhaps come up with their own version of a ING Renault? Perhaps swapping the yellow part of the car for orange or blue? Or taking a new tack completely?

Just to see what could have been possible…

Yes, is posible, i will make my versions after this carset.
I invite to all designers and fans to create your versions of the Renault R27 and post the pics here.

Which poll? Whos used the clown expression, what do they know anyway? Did you see the McLearen X-Wings effort? That was hideous.

????
Have I struck a nerve?
If you love their 2007 Livery, that's fine too. There's no accounting for taste. But if you follow F1 and participate in any F1 forums, you will know that this livery is not universally liked. (which is putting it mildly).
My personal view on it is that it seems curiously unintegrated. The rear is new and very ING but the front is simply the old livery without the light blue of Mild Seven. I think Renault failed to go with a new design which would have mixed these colours in a coherent fashion. But then, I am not a designer which is why I have asked if some of the artists here could give their interpretations of a ING Renault.

If you see the GP4 fictional cars by Axel80 and Isaint, then someone could
make a fictional carset, only one makes no sense IMO.

Happy racing from Germany !!!
