Cobra

Hey guys, here's a Cobra that I just finished. Definitely one of the coolest Ford powered vehicles of it's time! The 427 was a screamer... gonna build me one someday... for now, it's only a pencil color dream...

Re: Cobra

now that's a cool looking drawing. one of the best i've seen being posted here lately, but i don't think this will be a very comfortable car for any passengers. the seat looks twisted. apart from that, well, no further comments.

Re: Cobra

Beautiful rendering! The reflections and tire treads look incredibly detailed.

Re: Cobra

Wow! Excellent. I love it. Proportions are great and the detail is awesome. Maybe one suggestion though. The car looks chrome, maybe on future drawings add a little bit more variations of darker blues?

Re: Cobra

Very nice drawing. The perspective and ellipses are right on. I have been doing automotive drawings in colored pencil for about 3 years now and have found that it's important to put quite a few layers of color down and then burnish them to get a smooth texture. When you do that it takes the sketchiness quality out of the picture and adds a real quality look to your work. Keep up the good work.

Re: Cobra

Thanks for the C and C everyone! I appreciate it!

JDMWong: The reflections did get a bit crazy, no?

gbritnell: The 'grainy' look has been haunting me since I've started pencil color rendering. Thanks for the tip on layers of color/burnishing. I'll apply that to my next piece, a non-Ford , '70 Nova. B

Re: Cobra
