Mazda Coupe concept

The main feature is compact engine size, and for that high air flow. May use latest versions of turbocharged Rotary engines, or some still in research, High-pressured-air engine.

Do you use a Wacom tablet and Alias sketchbook pro to draw that? It looks pretty good (back wheel's too small and on the wrong angle), but I think you would get better results with a pencil and paper. Using your PC is allright to draw, but to get the best results and overall have more control of what your doing, I would suggest pencil. Give it a go, and im sure you'll come out with better results. Your drawing skills are fine atm, its just the program you use doesn't fully justify them.

It's Photoshop, my SketchBook seems gone out of ink :). I don't understand what happend, but when you change the brush, it is painting no more. Tried to reinstall and so on, but it didn't help.

You know.... I have nothing against pencil :) but... it's hard to get away from PC. This is the main reason I bought a tablet. And it's pretty powerful.

Thanks for the advice.

Maybe it is so, because I'm not thorough enough?

I agree Phoenix. Powerful.

Very nice work. I like the tapering of the brush tip.

More clean, and accurate.

Better, but you should really try pen or pencil, even if you then scan it in to render it. It just there is so much more feel to pencil lines, unlike the tablet you use now, which you can see has either thick lines or thin lines. Perspectively, the back wheel's still needs tweeking, and the side is too long. Are you going to render it?

looks good.

looks nice, really. you got to work on proportion. the rear wheel is WAY too far back. and the beltline is a bit too low. other than those things, which are easily corrected tweaks, the drawing has a nice style. it looks oriental. like a brush drawing on rice paper.

I wasn't able to reach PC for few days, but at last, here is some shading.

welp, is nice. i suppose the rear tire so far back doesn't bother you. if the car were shown in profile, it would be as long as a full-size crew cab pickup. about 25 feet long with the wheel well about 3 feet behind the c-pillar.

i like the pastel style. different. a fashion drawing.

I shortened it :) by about one rear wheel.
You think it must be somewhere on the edge of my door? or even closer?

it is customary and proportionally savvy to have the rear wheel nearly centered below the c-pillar. this is not always the case, but is generally true most of the time.

since you have a foreshortened view here, and the wheel is still far behind the c-pillar, the trained eye will say "oh. the rear wheel is six miles back. this must be a limousine car."

but your roofline in the rear terminates far forward of the wheel. so it is not even a limousine. just a funny looking rear.

you draw well. this is not the issue. it is your proportion. get a model of any 2-dr coupe and study it in this view.

When I watched the rear thoroughly, 15 mins ago, I think I got your point, and will be done with this in some 2-7 mins :) already.

Did I understand you right?

Noticed that roof is too high.

YES! phoenix, you have it. the drawing is WAY better now. just a little tweak did it. ;) only thing i ask now is to enlarge the rear wheel slightly --because it is not as far back, it does not diminish as soon. so enlarge her about 10% and see how that looks.

other than that, you are on your way. your ellipses are great, btw. very refreshing to see this.

^ Yes, the back wheel is still too small, but like that, I actually like it quite a lot now! Colour looks a bit like clay, but otherwise its pretty good.
