inspired by my neighbors trucks... a couple custom rigs brought me to doodling another truck. heres an old pete, more work needed but this is initial sketch. I notice the chrome wing on the top has a weird angle...need to alter it a bit.. other than that...not bad i think...

c&c always welcome..

Nice start, has a cool, sketchy look and just the right amount of detailing bits so far.

My dad is a trucker and I've been drawing trucks since I was a kid, and this one is top notch. I don't really see anything wrong with the wing. It matches up the angles and style of the piece rather well, I'd leave it as is.

hey..thanks all for the posts... havent had time to do much the last few days..might get to it tomorrow. Chevyguy.. I relate well.. my dad drives truck as well. I started drawing these things when I was about 6!!... You may have seen this posted here b4..but here is another truck i did awhile back...still a W.I.P though... time is not on my side. It is a company here in Toronto that used to run these trucks..only company i know of that ever had these too...

A little bit of the line work done in Illy. Back to work though...may find some time here and there.... IMO..i like the sketch work over the illy.. i think it will look better though once more is completed and i alter the line width.. etc. add some shadows.... we will see what time i can find..

As GB pointed out, Senor El C, things do look like they need some adjustment, before you go into colour.

I've thrown in some lines, which are hopefully of some use. Keep in mind that all your lines must go to 2 vanishing points on 1 horizon line, which will help cure any 'twisting' going on with the 'Bilt.
