I had been following Runoff Studio for a while before I reached out about my artwork. After all, my ride is pretty different from your usual 911. Once I did reach out though, we went through the possibilities of how we could capture my car; and I couldn’t be happier with the process or the result. It just came out awesome!

I’m very impressed with it, and not just the car! Even though the artwork is completely focused on the car, the movement it portrays is spot on, and even the background – which is not an unimportant part of it – puts it into perfect perspective. I know exactly the moment and location the drawing represents, I could go sit in that spot just based on the background. And that’s not even the main focus of the artwork, which goes to show the level of detail Ruben’s working with.

That’s to say the level of realism is impressive. You know, when you look at something online, you have to think to yourself “okay, well, that was touched up to make it look better”, but Ruben’s drawing really does look like a photograph. People often don’t realize it’s a drawing until they’re up and close to the artwork. I would imagine that is incredibly hard to pull off, but Ruben pulls it off beautifully!

So, I think, whether it’s your vehicle or a parent’s vehicle – or just someone you care about – it’s a great opportunity to memorialize your vision of that vehicle forever. The Runoff Studio team is very passionate, and not just about art, but also about the vehicles they engage with. It’s just so nice to work with people who aren’t just good at what they do, but also passionate about what they do!

Being able to get and enjoy my Porsche Cayman was a big milestone for me. I’ve had great memories with the car, experiences, friends being there with me; but I was not sure about how I wanted to extrapolate the passion that I had. Let alone the emotion I felt back then with my car.

I thought about framing a picture, or even buying a miniature replica; but that, to me, didn’t have much meaning. I wanted something a bit more special, something with a process. This is when I stumbled on Runoff Studio’s take on the RUF Yellowbird and the then-new Bugatti Chiron, and I immediately thought “this is it – this is exactly what I want!”

The process to start with that was fantastic. Before anything was drawn, we discussed what my favorite angle of the car was, what was my favorite memory of the car and a picture or a reference that reminds me of the car. To me, the artwork that I have now represents not only a passion that I have, but also a job I had, my experiences from that time and probably the most memorable friendship moments I have all in one artwork.

So that’s what my artwork is to me: the pinnacle of all of these things combined. And well, to be honest, I look at it every day! And it’s kind of one of my main inspirations too – you know – to add another memory in the box of good moments. So yeah, it’s perfect!

Working with Ruben was easy. I first saw his work on a Porsche 911 Facebook page. I felt I had a world class car, and she deserved a portrait.

Ruben guided me through taking some proper reference pictures of my car to pick my favorite angle, and we chose one together. He even sketched a couple of other angles and views that were very imaginative before I made my mind up!

I think the work speaks for itself. And as a 76-year-old man, it was great to realize some people share my passion, even if they’re a fraction of my age and halfway across the world!

I’d encourage any enthusiast looking to portray their car to just contact Ruben with some questions – just get talking and share the passion for cars.

Though I was a little skeptical about investing on an artist I only knew through Instagram at first, I felt my passion for cars was shared by the Runoff Studio team.

The end result was better than what I had expected. I’ve shared the final version of the artwork, and the different stages of completion on my social media page all have received rave reviews!

Frankly, the attention to detail in making the artwork life-like is so great that I ordered a second one.

I think there is talent far beyond Ruben’s age. He just needs to get more and more exposure for his work, but I’m sure any Cars and Coffee attendee would love to own a Runoff Original as well. Car folk are passionate and love to show off their babies, and they could really use quality work like this!

I personally knew Ruben and his work, so Runoff Studio was on top of my mind when I was looking for a gift to give my brother, who built his VW Beetle himself.

During the process, everything felt right. I got video updates of the progress on the artwork every now and then, which I really liked.

The examples of other artworks were nice, so my expectations were high, but the end result was even nicer than what I had anticipated!

The color accuracy was the biggest surprise for me, and the team’s reliability and active communication made the process easy and enjoyable.

Dick and I have always had a good relationship, and it gets strengthened with surprises like gifting him this artwork!

There hasn’t been any obstacle for me to order a commissioned artwork from Ruben – I have bought 5 drawings! This BMW M5 artwork is one of them, that I commissioned as a unique gift for my father.

The level of detail in the artwork is amazing! It’s personal, customized, and the only one in existence. The entire experience was great! Communication was clear, and the progress pictures helped. Very professional.

I was initially skeptical of how true to nature Ruben’s artwork really was. I’m quite a visual person, so I was critical at first since that is always difficult to convey, but it went very well.

The progress took a bit of time, but I liked that Ruben came to take some pictures of the cars, as well as the constant progress updates he sent me. We worked together to customize the artwork to my liking, and the result is beautiful.

Two beautiful works of art now hand beautifully on my wall, and the get a lot of positive responses too! A Runoff Original is great for those who’s cars are at a distance, so you can see your car in the art every day.

I met Ruben at the Porsche Collector’s Day, I saw some of his work at this event, and it was very appealing. Especially the quality of the work. In fact, I immediately commissioned artwork of my Porsche 911 alongside my forever house!

Ruben kept me up to date with his progress on the artwork through text messages and pictures, and the final result, was, in one word: Great! Elder and younger guests of mine think the artwork is beautiful, and it fits into any environment. Now I gotta get another Runoff Original for my Range Rover too!

I bought a commission for my long-time friend and business partner. His 50th birthday was the perfect occasion to gift him an artwork of one of his biggest passions; his Ferrari.

The drawing is beautiful, and watching Ruben’s progress is very nice, especially the timelapse video of creating the artwork was great to see! I would definitely recommend Ruben’s work to any enthusiast looking to have their car captured in a unique way.
