Ferrari 360 Spider drawing

ETW 355 · #1 08-02-2003, 05:41 PM

Hello every one. Im only 12 years old and I am really into drawing cars. This is a 360 spider I did in like 40 minutes with 1 2B pencil. I need to get my scanner working because my camera kind of messed it up. It looks MUCH better in person. The lightly shaded areas didnt really show up in the picture and it looks kind of bad... Oh well, here is a pic if it works:

Hello ETW355,

You are a very good drawer w/ some developement you will be awesome.

I personally think you need to add some shading to your cars.
The Modena is tight, The only thing I see is the front fender needs to have a more uniform flow (not so choppy) and the rear tire/rim needs to fill up the wheel well a bit more or perhaps draw the wheel/tire closer to the top of the fender well so there is not so much gap.

Very good. Awesome for being only 12 yrs old.

Check out some books from your library that cover pencil shading and drawing.

The main tools used are stumps and tortillions they are cheap and can be bought from any art store. Please check out my tutorial it is not the best but can get you started on shading if you won't to do that.

Take care

Dang your good. Where did you learn to draw like that? I'm only 13 and I wish that I could draw that good. I can only draw cars from the side. Your younger than me and your drawing cars at 3/4 and from the front and the rear and they look really nice.

Also, how are you only 12 and have a Lexus SC430?

it doesnt mean he has a lexus sc 430, its prolly just a car he likes

ETW 355 · #11 08-03-2003, 07:59 PM

I actually mean like, my dad has an SC430, so its like , ours... Yup. I just practice drawing alot, a while ago I could only draw cars from the front, I just eventually taught myself to draw from all angles.

nice job

Here is a Diablo I just drew. I shaded everything in really dark but the camera makes it look so light... Grrrrrr... In person, it looks like my best picture yet. Im about to do the front view of it

ETW 355 · #14 08-04-2003, 01:01 AM

Heres the front view of the Diablo. Im not very proud of this one because I really messed it up when I went over the hood and next to the hood with an eraser to make it look smoother. Ill draw it again once I go get some supplies
