. . . I didn't like that last one (so I deleted the image) . . . this one I like a little better . . . another VERY quick sketch . . .

GreenToaster · 5 May 2009, 18:51

. . . had to delete another one . . . too ugly . . .

GreenToaster · 6 May 2009, 12:43

. . . tossing on a few details before moving on to the next one . . .

Wow, it's been a while.

Here's a little warm up - something to help me get back into the swing of things.

Happy Sketching,

Brad

a car without clearly front or bottom recognizable

Front & back - got it.

I like the idea of the front fender being visually larger than the rear. It may look like another "sporty" FWD car (at this stage) but it has this "Arr! I want to eat you, you piece of litter!" stance.

Let me rephrase that for you:

it probably wouldnt be very aerodynamic, if its vertically bigger

GreenToaster · 6 Jul 2009, 17:06

I know I don't know what I'm doing - my car proportions are really askew - I'm just playin' around, but I'm still enjoying it.

olishea · 6 Jul 2009, 17:25

its like an Audi TT!!

Sir · 8 Jul 2009, 13:52

i would have said a VW beetle

It's been a while . . . something quick and simple to get the ball rolling . . .

I've been fine, thanks. I'm still using SketchUp at work, of course. I've also recently gotten back into robotics and I have a few new r/c cars. I'm working on an autonomous robotic follow-car for my high school students. It's very fun but challenging!

Some things never change - ha.

Long time no see indeed. Glad to hear you're doing awesome stuff. Robotics and rc cars

Cheers.

Have u ever took a car and watch the wireframe? First time i used SU 5 and i saw the car by components(i was completely wordless)and i tuned it ; after this i wasn t happy it was really ugly then i start to make a new car i did it,was much better than that in components,then,second try using 2 pictures of a toyota supra and i did it amazing,not verry close like the totyota,but was a car,a real good one.Those were my trying with SU 5.now i m in spain for work and i get SU 6 and i was completely out of words when i saw what is in warehouse,i was thinking that those great,awesome models are made by sketchupers and i told myself i m busted,but somebody told me that those cars are imported from games and other 3d programs,that make me feel better,i wasn't that weak as i though,and i started to tune cars, after i learned some new tips and i saw the wireframes and geometry of the cars i start to build my first concept car,wasn t very good but was better than many others.

For good proportions u can use temporary the position of the wheels of a desired form of car(ex:u like to make a car like a mazda miata-take the wheels of a miata and start from them,for many times i started a car and i hadn't the right proportions and the project needed to be resized).

PS:sorry for my bad english
