First sktech: Nissan Silvia S15

Hello, my name is Justin and I'm 15. This is not only my first sketch, but my first post here. I have most troubles with the interior. So far I like these forums . Here is a picture of an S15 that I drew today and last night. As you can tell it was based on the S15 posted in the headlight tutorial, but most of it came from various different models. All materials used are in the picture.

Comments, critcisms, and questions appreciated. Thanks.

Re: First sktech: Nissan Silvia S15

Thats a hard angle to draw.

First thing that sticks out to me is the front, its flat and without depth. Secondly, the whole car is very boxy. Lastly, the wheels are at a different angle, and are extremely tiny.

Just noticed the hoods a bit wavy.

I dotn mean to be harsh, you have potential.

Re: First sktech: Nissan Silvia S15

The side is sticking out to much, which make it look flat. As Mike said, it's boxy and the wheels are on different angles and they are to small.

It is still in progress so maybe you can fix some of the mistakes. Just noticed that the side mirrors are to small. Keep practicing.

Re: First sktech: Nissan Silvia S15

I always draw the basic out line and get the proportions correct then move on to the detail.I think in this case you should also try this.Try and stick to that rule if you can, it helps me draw well.

Re: First sktech: Nissan Silvia S15

hey what all these guys said is awesome and i dont know what to add... but that looks really aweosme for a first try, you have plenty of potential and i would just say you should try some more simple stuff not worry about huge detail for the time being and get your basics down: incuding the rims and angle and boxyness. try something more simple to start and dont worry about makign it extremly accurate, just that it looks like a car should.
thats a really good start keep working

Re: First sktech: Nissan Silvia S15

It's a good first sketch.

Some things to fix: driver headlight too boxy and short. The grill part between the headlights is too long. The bottom part of the front bumper should be rounded off a bit. It's completely flat.

It's a good first sketch, but pick an easier angle next time.

Alex
