Crizpy: Let's put social media where it's most fun.
Model makers are true artists in the automotive industry. However, you practice a profession that is unknown to most people. Their most important tool is their hands, which they use to bring the vehicle designers' sketches to life as full-size clay sculptures.
Carlos Arcos is responsible for designing the models at SEAT and explains his work to us: “I like working with my hands because it is very demanding and artistic work. I develop a feel for the surface and the car itself. I'm actually a sculptor. It’s important to have a feel for the material and apply the right pressure with your hands.”
320 hours and 5,000 kg of clay. The industrial oven is heated to over 60° before being formed. Model makers and designers work together to determine the shapes of the new model. A full-size sculpture recreates the design to reveal the lines and volumes of the future model.
“This is my masterpiece. “It looks like a real car, but it’s actually my clay model,” said Carlos Arcos after completing a model.
