80s concept car

Tried a concept car.
I see it as a tiny lotus elise clone.
First car in a long time.

Re: 80s concept car

That looks pretty sweet, it reminds me of a elise and mclaren f1, the only thing i dont like is how the red covers over the black vents.
Overall it looks good

Re: 80s concept car

Nice work!... as usual. I think if you made the wheels a bit smaller it might also give the illusion of a longer wheelbase, which is why the car looks really small at the moment. I love the mid-engine sort of shape and the sleekness of it. The yellowish gradient in front of the headlight is cool too.

Re: 80s concept car

Alex you are right about the wheel base.
The big wheels totally make it look squat.
Added some edges to the rendering.
Most of the stuff that I noodle turns out worse.
It is too fun to stop it though.

Re: 80s concept car

Thanx again alex . You are the benevolent ruler of af.
And thanx blip you also rock.
I also like that drawing subject. It is my favorite.
It is cool to think about what makes "drawing" and that it is not pen or pencil, or even lines at all, but seeing and processing. It is about using the "videocard " in yer noggin to process the information in your brain and record it with your arm in a medium that others can see. But all of the "drawing" is done with the brain and eyes.
