I have drawn a black 599 GTB Fiorano, how can I take part in this competition, too?

What does that WIP means?

Same to you! The rear wheel needs about an hour. Another hour per tyre i guess. And some time to finish the front end of the car.

All you have to do is make sure you mention it in the post, preferebly the title i think.

WIP stands for work in progress, i.e. a drawing that has yet to be finished.

Hope you join us!

Merry Christmas everyone!

PS: For some reason i can't see the pic in my earlier post so just to be sure i post it again:

**EDIT**

Another hour and a half of work.

coming along nnicely, my zonda took 4-5 hours yesterday, and i thought it was good, forgetting about this.

Merry Christmas Everyone, im off now

Your Zonda didn't look half bad nicecar.

This was a nice warm up for my next drawing. A fully detailed f1 classic, which i want to draw using some new techniques i read about. Now that i know the basics of the paper i am using, i want to see if i can make it all a bit smoother without using a stump at all.

I use Brunzeel pencils and the local bookstore's own brand of mechanical pencils. The brunzeel can be bought in every bookstore and everyone in the Netherlands has used them. They cost about about 85 cents or so. The mech pencils come in different colors so it is easier to keep the grades of lead apart. I think they cost about €1,75, including a set of leads.

**Update**

I'm close to finishing this one. Just the rubber left. Probably one of the most important things on a performance car like this one. Time to start on something new.

xpeed · 12-28-2007, 05:00 PM

It's looking good.

nicecar · 12-29-2007, 06:17 AM

yes it is.

1986 · 12-30-2007, 10:51 AM

This is my latest and probably also last update this year. My grandpa is in the hospital with a 50/50 chance of surviving so i don't feel like drawing at all. I'll finish this one another time.

Missing: front tyres, windshield wipers and cast shadow.

hey m8,

im really surprised by the quality of the coloring!! its really very very nice!!

besides that..I hope your grandpa will servive..good luck in these times!!

grantrl78 · 12-30-2007, 02:01 PM

That is a nice pencil rendering. The detail in those vents and wheels is intense. Making continuous tone with a stick of graphite is damn hard to do. You pencil wizards have my respect.

1986 · 12-31-2007, 03:15 PM

It's not perfect ... it's not even 100% done yet. But it's good enough for now. This is my entry for the 60th anniversary competition:

JK

Have a nice evening everyone. See you next year!
