Last week was another visual feast for the Driver Hive, with a torrent of behind the scenes photos and short clips of Adam dressed as a middle-aged Maurizio. It also saw the debut of yet another wig, this one with touches of silver frosting his temples and the crown of his head. At some point we will hopefully get lucky enough to see some proper HQ photos of him in these costumes, but for now we're making do with the extraordinary efforts of the Italian paparazzi on the scene. Regrettably, they're all taken at a considerable distance, and have been remini'd to within an inch of their lives as a result to try to get some clarity back, but I'm grateful for them all the same. The lower resolution just means that I'll keep using this lineart style until we get the official promos. Darn.
This particular photo was taken during the set up for the infamous Lamborghini moment, in which we got to see a very tall man climb into a very low-slung supercar, and fandom was reminded that Adam is indeed blessed with some very nice assets. Just like my second portrait of Maurizio, this is Adam in costume but not actually filming a scene at that moment; it's out of the frame of my painting, but he's actually holding a paper cup full of coffee as he looks out at the crew bustling to set up the scene. But, just like that other one, I'm calling this a character portrait; he is dressed for the part, and clearly on the job, his Serious Actor face firmly on, and I'm guessing he was already in Maurizio Mode.

13-ish hours for this one. I think. It got a little fuzzy because hyperfocus happened. I took some liberties with just how much silver is in his hair, because I could, and subtlety has never been my strong suit.
