No Rest The Legends

No Rest The Legends

I'd Present my tribute painting to Carroll Shelby win at the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans; I've decide to add sound effects to make you get the feeling experiencing of going down the Mulsanne Straight at high speeds in the Aston Martin DBR1.

No Rest The Legends

My DeviantArt description of my piece is below.

"In 1959 the Aston Martin backed David Brown Racing setout to make history at Le Mans with the DBR1; Delivering the brand first win in the grueling twenty four hour race with a  three car team (numbered 4-6) comprised of the six finest drivers car no. 4 (Stirling Moss and Jack Fairman), car no.5 (Carroll Shelby and Roy Salvadori) and car no. 6 (Maurice Trintignant and Paul Frère). Behind the Wheel is a 36 year old American Race Car Driver from Leesburg, Texas named Carroll Shelby; Shelby has served an USAAF Pilot during World War 2, after the war he drifted trough various entrepreneurial efforts involving a variety things from dump trucks to poultry; Before finding his true calling as a racing driver for hire, Shelby is not only battling for the win but secretly for his very life against a heart condition that is predicted to kill him within two years. The Young Texan perseveres with the aid of a nitroglycerine pill that keeps his heart problems in check long enough to reach victory lane; Carroll Shelby has just achieved what many drivers often dream about but very few do a win at Le Mans, but his story doesn't end here this merely part of his final bow as a driver; He will outlive his doctors original diagnosis by several years thanks to advances in medical science, During this time Shelby will found Shelby America which would breath new life into the AC Ace with the addition of a Ford V8 Engine; Creating both the Shelby Cobra and Shelby Daytona Coupe which would led to his involvement in both the Ford Mustang and the Ford GT40, the latter of both would see his return to Le Mans 1964-1967 as a manufacturer thus making him the only person to ever win as both a driver and a constructor."

Thanks for Reading I hope y'all enjoy see this as did making it, I had fun making this painting and video as well.

My favorite Doctor Who Companion in her Shining Moment and a callback to that Moment; I'm a big fan of Ace and her actress Sophie Aldred, she really brings the character a grounded sense of humanity and warmth.

'Next Plane to London is a song written by songwriter Kenny O'Dell and made famous by the band Rose Garden, it tells the story of a Young American Woman who is a staving musician waiting for her big break. She's about to begin a tour of the United Kingdom but is reluctant to leave her boyfriend back at home, it is truly a tale of loneness and facing an uncertain future. It also is one of Hope and Bravery as she moves forward to face the new Challenge ahead of her, knowing she will return a stronger and wiser person regardless of if she successes or fails.'
