KR posted this today and it’s a fantastic look at how he painted the MINI Cooper S in Germany.
Man, I would love to have at least that much KRINK to go through so carelessly.

Freshnessmag posted a link to Avus Performance, a German performance sportcar company that has a great track record of producing awesome looking cars.
Above is the Audi TT-RS which they’ve given an elegant matte black paint job. As it turns out, they tend to replace the standard paint job on many of their vehicles with a matte black coat which I think makes any car look cool.
See below the Nissan GTR, Audi Q7, and Mercedes ML — all in matte black. Nice eh?

I watched Burning Car for the first time today and was impressed by how such a simple video can capture my attention for such an extended period of time. The 10-minute film is a film by Superflex produced in 2008 by Propeller Group.
In the 10-minute video, the old Mercedes-Benz can be seen engulfed in flames with its paint bubbling and falling off. The video is beautiful and I could easily see this on some big screen somewhere playing in an infinite loop. Superflex actually had the entire video in HD on a torrent, but I just tried and it looks like the torrent is pretty much dead. It’s a shame because I would love to download this film in HD. Anybody have a direct link?
You can watch the entire film below.

Have people in Thailand just gone crazy? Apparently zoo keepers have decided to paint the elephants at the zoo black and white to look like pandas after public interest drifted from elephants to pandas after the birth of a female panda cub. Of course, The Daily Mail would have photos. [via]

Reulf from Charlesque on Vimeo.
Reulf is a student video project from the University of Paris VIII directed by Quentin Carnicelli, Charles Klipfel & Jean-François Jégo. In the short, several CGI characters walk around Paris and literally paint some color onto the bland black-and-white city. Cute. :)
