Big Chief, Pontiac
Von Sven Kustom Deluxe Ā» Modern Studio
This is defiantly a one of a kind Pinstripe here.
I got the job to paint a Chief on the trunk of a Pontiac and at first I wanted to make it Chief Pontiac himself, but after some research I couldn’t find any pictures of him so it ended up being more of a loose interpretation of a plains indian with headress and western shirt, which for the record is more of 1800’s style for the Ottawa But made for a much nicer design with all the radiating feathers. ( Pontiac having lived in the 1700’s probably would have been sporting a headband with some feathers)
Chief Pontiac is known for his part in startingĀ a war with the British when he lead an attack on Fort Detroit in 1763.
also the pontiac V shaped logo is actually a stylized arrowhead design..
