Eclipse drawing..... I made the rims up so they're fake looking... and i also just made the sideskirts...... meh....

i know how to make a darker scan...


Would a charcoal pencil be better for drawing cars.. cause the mechanical ones don't blend well

cool dawg. well, it depends on the pencil u like the most. depending on the mechanical pencil size (.5, .7, etc.) pressing hard will leave marks in your paper making it harder to smooth the drawing when ur done. i guess if u want a darker look, use charcoal, its pretty good but kinda messy.

i like your perspective. the wheels messyness makes the rest look less clean.

Integra14,

I have tried charcoal way back in high school, but something you might want to try instead, is carbon pencils. Now I don't care for carbon either (for car drawings) because it is messy and tricky to work with. I will have to try some more art with it though.

You may want to try 2B mechanical lead. 2B is what I primarly use and I can get nice shades with it and very dark tones. For some shading tips check this link out

That is pretty much the technique I use for graphite cars. The book mentioned in that site (by Lee Hammond) is the book that transformed my car drawing.

Take care
Alfred
