Hello everyone
Following the tragic death of Colin back in September last year, I felt a enormous need to do something to celebrate the life of the best of the best and in my opinion the greatest rally driver of them all. So I have been working on a tribute poster over the last 4 months to celebrate Colin's life with the intention of donating it to the McRae family on the Sunday of the gathering to auction to raise money for Colin's designated charity the Jerviswood Trust.
The poster is sized at A2 and features a written bibliography of his life and achievements, 4 side view renderings of Colin's WRC cars including his 1995 WRC winning car, his 1998 WRC 2 door impreza, Focus WRC and Citreon WRC and a montage image of Colin competing in Australia which the photographer has kindly given me the original image to use on this product.
This poster has been a lot of hard work so far and its production is still ongoing, but below is a visual image to give you some idea of what the poster is going to look like. I am going to present this to the McRae family and Campbell in the near future for approval and hopefully I can also get permission to include Colin's signature on it too. This poster will at present be a one off, created specifically to raise money on the day for Colin's Charity and will be extremely rare as I am only going to produce one of them, even if by the end of it it will have taken me 5 months to produce!!!!!!!
I don't know what you all think about this project and your feedback would be greatly appreciated, but when its finished I believe it will be a fitting visual tribute to a great person and fantastic rally driver and also assist in raising as much money for Colin's charity as possible.
If anyone has any pictures of Colin holding his WRC trophy or any images of colin's Subaru or Ford drivers helmets which I would like to include on this poster if you can email them to
