KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!!!

You what?! You traced it...SINNER!!! I sentence you to life in confinement. Tracing is for the devil.

Anyway, now that thats over with. It looks pretty good, the left hand side tail-light is a little wack. Also, the sponsor decals look hand written, not drawn.

Still looks pretty good, but you traced it. Sinner!!!

I understand where youre comming from. Its something I say when somebody says the word tracing. Tracing is for the devil, I say that all the time. I wasnt trying to tear him down, or belittle him.

Cool drawing.

I think everyone said what was wrong with it.

Keep practicing amigo.

i think it looks pretty good in general except for a few really small mistakes that have already been pointed out like the rear wheel and the taillight. also, you gotta shade the inner part of the exhaust pipe a little more. but overall i like it

[quarter_mile]

omg, the wheel is the thing i didn't trace! better re-do it!
and the tailight do look kinda funny, hehe.
Not sure what you mean about the decals tho???

Looking good (And I love Silvias )

real quick...

Tracing is a foundation illustration skill. Has anyone here ever used an art-o-graph?

In art school we used the art-o-graph to trace reference photos all the time. It is a staple in realism. Look at the realist masters and you'll see what I mean.

Tracing will also serve as a method for training your eyes and your arm. I teach my daughter along the same lines. The style that is yours will emerge in due time. In the meantime "Keep it Sharpened" (George Trosley would write that on every drawing of his I traced back in the day).
