i like it, i think u just need to work on the rear wheel...its becos of how unusual the perspective is. kep it up!

the car part is awesome! the wheels are not so awesome. thew back wheel has negative camber...when there should be no camber

Two comments:

1) Change the rumble pads. As far as I've seen, most people don't drift a turn at 90deg to the corner, they'd spin or stop.

2) Avoid using that perspective. It is barely ever used because at that view, the car looks as if it is a toy. You don't ever see a real car from that view, Most are seen at eye level. A toy on the other hand you see most often from that perspective.

3) For a nice smopke effect on the back wheels, use an eraser and lightly (key word) erase some of the back half of the car in the right places. It looks pretty radical if you get it on the nose. Be careful though.

Other than a couple little mistakes, your drawing is lookin' good, keep it up.

off course it's gonna be camber, when you lower a 180 SX its gonna have alot of positive camber..

Wow, you choose a very hard angle.

Is there anyway you can post the ref. pict so I can give you a better tips?

The car body looks very good.

Negative camber. Pointing towards the inside (if you look from the front) is negative camber.

okey, i always mix them=)

yep, they pretty much covered it. back wheel is a little off tho. i like how your darkened the hood, nice

i like the perspective!!! Its very unique, and aside from what has been said already, i think if a car is sliding one way, the smoke should also be coming from that way, so make it on the passenger side

hey thanks for the comments guys!
lol..i had no intention of adding camber in any way to the back wheel...its more of a perspective mistake then anything. but i'll have to fix that..

Wow, you choose a very hard angle.

mm..there was no ref pic at all. i only used a basic 1/24 car i made....sorry!


and should the rumble pads be more...horizontal??


laters!

[AnsisK]

Pull the rumble pad up higher on the right edge of the sheet and push it closer to the bottom right corner on the bottom edge.

It may look strgane, but that's the perspective you chose. If you want, I can change it in PS for you.

hey AnsisK that'd be quite helpful and appreciated...
thanks!
