hey!! whats up?
it's been awhile since i posted here, i draw more and spend alot less time with the computer.. but now its winter and its time to spend a little computertime too!

this the latest of my drawings, a volvo 940 turbo with volvo 960 fenders and headlights + grille, and the bumper, yeah,the whole front end. 19" wheels.
it's a request from the owner and it's now sold.


PS. the photo sucks, so many reflections that should'nt be there!

Looks cool man. You should try your hand at some other cars, rather than sticking to volvos.

nice drawing Zwofurti. The only thing that's bugging me is the rear elipse.

Nice volvo!! I like the shading!! But it seems to me that the back is a little to high, no?? or is it the normal?

The Volvo man strikes w/ a nice drawing.

That looks great. There is one little thing I see, and others have mentioned it. I just wanted to offer some help. The main problem w/ the rear ellipse is that the minor axis curves (long sides) are not tangent to the imaginary box (if one where drawn around the ellipse). They travel too long down the box guide lines. They should just touch and then begin to break away. I hope this makes sense. Check the http://www.drawthrough.com/tutorials/index.html

Practice practice practice, just draw tons of ellipses on paper. That guy's site really helped me out.

Anyway, just trying to help, not trying too nag anyone.

That is a very nice rendering.

Take care
