That's pretty good QM, but still looks a little cartoony. Love the shine but can't say more about it got school..........Now

Still looks like your finding it hard to go fom cartoon to realistic! Looks good though, I like the shading.

I smell an official Kustm Kritique (HAHA!! damn thats funny...) hope you don't mind!
First of all, i must say, i really dig that style. There is a nearly perfect blend of cartoon with realism. Very cool. I have tried that unsuccessfully many times.
Alright, down to business. Firstly, i was very impressed as the drawing loaded bit by bit until it got to the wheels, and i saw how not low it was. Seeing as it has many elements of cartoon in it, i think that it would deserve to be lower. While staying on the topic of wheels. The quality of the wheels and tires is, well, not as there as it could be. While it is cartoony, straight, or relatively straight lines are in order. The right rear tire is very straight on the inside, which takes away from the cylindrical shape.
The wheels themselves look very flat. To solve this problem is very easy. Simply draw the inner wheel, further in. You see, the wheel must be the width of the tire, so look at how deep you drew the tire, and match the inside of the wheel to that. Also, if you added dimension to each of the spokes, and brake components, it would greatly compliment the whole car.
The body is overall, well done. The only thing i can say is that while you were doing great, it seems like when you got to the left front fender, you gave up. It slopes down at what seems the wrong angle, and the headlight is hard to see. The problem extends into the grille and intercooler, as the shapes arent straight, or even all there from what it looks like. The quality of that one section of the picture takes away from the rest a lot. Next time, pay attention to the entire shape, and take your time.
Finally, the windows are well done. One thing though, through the windshield, you can see the interior, but through the side windows you can't. When doing stuff like this, it good to pick one and stick with it, otherwise its a bit confusing.
So thats my critique. I hope its helpful. I do like it though, pretty accurate, keep it up! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:!!!!

Thanks everyone.
And thanks kustmace for the critique, I agree with you on everything, except for the bit on the windows. On the ref. pic( from autosalon mag) you couldnt see the interior from the side windows, thats why i did it like that:)
I will try and fix all the mistakes tonight, because I really want this picture to be my best.
Thanks again.
