What you have is a CLK-DTM:

and Im guessing that^ is your reference?

Just thought you would sound a bit more professional if you had the correct car.

Nicely done, once again mate!

How do you make your lines so clean? what's your technique? i'd say you'd need quite a sharp pencil to get all the detail like you did. You have to make a tutorial someday on how you draw like that. What size paper did you use?

Keep up the great work.

:)

He did make a Tutorial. Look on his CarDomain Site, page 2...

Where? can you give me the link?

Thanks.

iam gonna make a step be step for this one too.

I use a .05mm mechanical pencil with normal printing paper. The paper is smooth os you can put alot of detail in a small amount of space. I always turn my pencil around so it's always sharp.

Thats really good, the front looks a little weird IMO, but i think its the same in the photo so looks good

BLEND THE FRIKIN INTERIOR

ahh, make it better, go over it again until its solid...i'd hate to see this great drawing go to waste cuz the interior looks like it has black and dark grey zebra prints in it

better?

little bit...r u using a 2b mech???

i use 9b for my black, but anyways...try shading the black by going up and down, then left and right, the upleft to bottomleft, then upright to bottomright... then i think it should be solid...

see how it looks much better though, look at the first one and then look at the darker one...big improvement...

i use hb....
very hard to get drak tones.....

ooooooo damn

hb's blow...2b is very good

aseanz uses it :)

nice!

glad to see that you're drawing more often now.

Hey, that's really good. Only one thing I see that could use some work are those vents on the top of the front driver side fender. They dont seem evenly lined up with each other, and look like they're perfectly straight. I think that in the reference picture, the look like they have a small amount of curvature. Just a quick fix, but other wise the drawing is really good. Oh yeah, maybe you should take care of the light smudges around the car. I dont know if you do it last, but jus another thing I noticed.

DAAAANG nice work man

done (i played with contrast to make it look better)

holy cow..... that's really awesome......

what are you gonna draw next?

may be a MGB/Viper

a mgb with the front of a bumper (my teacher of méchanics whant to do that...)

very good job, looks real cool

DANG DUDE!, You really know how to draw cars, I am very impressed.... Maybe u could give me some pointers..... Keep up the good work, And I really like your Mercedes and all of your other car drawings....

Very good! how long did it take?

If you compare this one to the 1962 Ferrari 330 TRI/LM (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=208829) you did, you seem to have chosen a less shiny style, and if you look at the reflectios on this on compared to the ref, you seem to have missed quite a lot of them compared to the style you would usually use. Is this on purpose? It also looks like you've used a more grainy paper, but you said above that you hadn't.

Still very good though! :)

no, its just my scanner cause it look real smooth (my smoothest)
and yes, i missed some reflections but i've made them after i posted the last one.... (on the side)

Ah, ok :D. My scanner does that aswell. Why has your scanner made it grainy on this one?

i didnt blur a bit in photoshop....

Ohhh... naughty ;), I'll have to try that :naughty:. I'll let you off because your trying to get it to look like it really looks like. I haven't done it before because I've only just got PS.

i LOVE it

you did a very good job on those rims as usual...and the heads are done wonderfully..
