Hello
My name is Marcin Możejko.
I am a member of a small team that is working on a reconstruction of one of the most amazing cars in the history of the Polish automotive industry. I am responsible for the reconstruction of the body and interior of the car.
SYRENA SPORT was the only one and true sporting car produced in Poland under the communist regime. Designed by the great engineer and designer Cezary Nawrot at the late 50's. Shown to the public 1 May 1960 aroused great excitement and controversy. Beautiful body shape and modern design has made him the legend that continues to this day.
The communist authorities in Poland do not allow engineers to design and build sport cars, and those were not political faith. Sport cars with two seats were not compatible with the idea of cheap and common cars, which were primarily used for transport etc, not for entertainment.
The prototype of a Syrana Sport, was a study. The builders wanted to check technology for the production of glass fiber car bodies, new type of engine, and new semi-self-supporting chassis, with independent wheel suspension. They have built only one copy.
Designers and builders of the Syrena Sport, tried to persuade the government to introduce the car into production. However, they remained unnoticed. Wieslaw Gomulka, First Secretary of Communist Party Central Committee ordered to hide the car, and not show it publicly as politically incorrect. A few years later, along with other prototypes, the car was destroyed.
The only thing that survived after the Syrena Sport is several photos and sketches published in journals in the early 60s.
We are a group of young engineers, designers and lovers of Polish cars. For several years we have kind of investigation, which aims to gather information and materials to rebuild this amazing vehicle. We want to build it with the maximum level of accuracy and attention to details. We are working under the official patronage of the Museum of Technology and Automotive in Warsaw, and the FSO Workers Club, members of which are the last few of Syrena Sport constructors. This allows us to continue our work and keep the confidence that everything we do, we will do according to the original.
Our work is non-commercial project. We are using Blender and Alibre Design Cad software. Alibre Company and Polish distributor DataComp has given us a special version of their software for this purpose.
We decided to use the Octane Render to prepare promotional materials for the project.
Car model, and the scene was made in Blender 2.49. Bridge, comes from the turbosquid.com website. It is a free model, retextured, and litle modified. Car model is about 2,7 mln poly. Textures made in Photoshop Elements 7,0, repainted with Pentagram Designer Tablet.
There is no post production. I aded only a lens flare efect. Color corectio,. lightness, contrast is changed in octan by exposure, gamma etc...
So many good works. I LOVE IT. I hope some one like my images to.
Pozdrawiam Marcin
