      I can't stop playing with it.

      I did not like the rear. This is better.

        All the hidden geometry. Lots and lot of triangles.

        Also started on the front end.

            Had an old cockpit and wheels I made from another project that I am using for interior and exterior scale.

              More rear end details.

              But nothing is set in stone right now. You will also notice some more side refinement near the front fender.

              I can't believe I've gotten this far in just 3 days! Just a few years ago this would have taken me weeks to months.

              I should note that I had made the wheels last year and the cockpit I made was an aircraft design I was working on 3 years ago.

              Still, I can't believe how fast I'm making the body.

                Fiddle, fiddle, fiddle. I just can't do a little. πŸ’š

                Adjusting proportions and adding details.

                  I think you are going about it the right way, slowly adding things until it feels 'right' for you. If it's worth anything, I would have one. πŸ‘Š πŸ‘

                    Thanks Mike!

                    More adjustments to come. I hate those headlights. 😎

                            Still working out the front end.

                            Widened the roof pillar. Hid some more lines. Changed the side window back to the other shape.

                              Didn't like it so I simplified it again.

                                I kind of like this front end. Maybe a little more refinement, but it's very close.

                                  Some minor details left then choosing a color.

                                    How does blue look?

                                      While the blue looks fine to me, given the style of the car I would expect for it to have a little more of a spaceship look. This might be more obvious in a rendered view, Again JMO.

                                      I should also mention though that I think the design of the car is really neat, eye catching and something that Elan Musk might be interested in building. πŸ‘ πŸ‘

                                        Thanks! I'm not set on any particular color.

                                        Most spaceships are white, which works as well.

                                        So, white?

                                          Here is a white version with black trim accents. (and some more refinements)
