The Cars That Ate Paris Merch

The Cars That Ate Paris Inspired Design celebrates Peter Weir's 1974 directorial debut about a fictional small town in Australia in which most of the inhabitants appear to be directly, or indirectly, involved in profiting from the results of car accidents.

The Volkswagen from the 1974 Peter Weir film, The Cars That Ate Paris, is a vehicle that once seen, is never forgotten. So what better way to present the car from that classic Australian film, than as a road warning sign? I’m actually quite pleased with this. I took a 3D model of a VW Beetle and using stills and screen captures, did my best to accurately place all the spikes in the right spots.
