I really like your work. I appreciate you sharing so much detailed info. I too am a student of the game, and it's nice to find "birds of a feather".

Keep'em comin!!

Thx Lemorris for your compliment

Those where my first color works. The graphite was my first greatly improved drawing since high school. I read a book about shading and drawing portraits by Lee Hammond and applied it to cars. My graphite has greatly improved since then.

Reading and application was the key that really improved my renderings.

Thx to everyone else too who showed interest and checked out my work.

I think I was 27 yrs old.

See, I talk alot about books because I never but out anything like those three cars untill after reading books on techniques.

If I took my art allot more serious during high school and applied my self I coud have been doing stuff like that sooner and then perhaps be a professional like Kartoonz or Lemorris and other who make some money doing this stuff.

Many of the folks here are a lot further than me because they are working w/ color and reading and such.

Don't be affraid to try color, paint, or various other rendering techniques.
Read, learn, and do.

I must say I am pleased with those cars but I still have tons to learn and more practice to do.
