Here's one for all you fans of the round wheels arch cars. This comes to you courtesy of customer who asked if I could pen his MKIII after seeing my post on the MKII and the Sprites.

For those not familiar with my work, prints are available in either 12" x 24" or 18" x 36" sizes. Illustrations are printed on archival quality, acid-free paper, are signed and number and include a Certificate of Authenticity. The MG Midget MKIII limited edition fine art prints are available in all of the factory exterior colors and interior trims including a number of both factory and period options with which you can fully customize your illustration.

More information id available at Sports Car Art.

Shown are versions showing a few of the options including Rostyle and wire wheels, wood rimmed steering wheel and spot lamps.

Looks nice. Do want feedback to correct mechanical accuracy for a RWA 72-74?
 
4 major things stand out:
Crossflow radiator and shroud
Different style heater blower
No PCV valve
Different clutch/brake MC

Also ... smog equipment, but most people have it removed anyway.

I'm sure there is more, those are the items that grabbed my attention.

Do these changes apply to all years for the RWA or are they specific to a particular year?
 
AFAIK, all '72-'74. The mk III swa car had some of those changes as well in later years. I would think it is impossible to cover all the incremental changes.
 
Thanks to Trevor, I just corrected a number of errors he spotted in my earlier version of the RWA artwork. In addition to the big ones he found—master cylinders, radiator, emissions valve, and radiator—after doing some reading I also removed the voltage regulator from the bulkhead, moved the washer bottle to the correct location, added the washer pump to the bulkhead, added the radiator purge tank to the left front inner wing, added the bonnet and boot props, added the air pump, corrected the engine color to black, and number of smaller details.

Pretty **** embarrassing. I'm not usually this sloppy. Thankfully, I feel I'm among friends here and appreciate you sharing your knowledge. See if this version looks closer to making muster.
