      They are really cool, Brad. Maybe they won't ever look like real cars but believe me, you are just developing your special, own style everyone here seems to like and can be identified from a mile away... πŸ‘

                          Thanks for the kind comments.

                          I'd really like to finish this but there are so many other things I have to do today . . . maybe I can finish it Monday - I'm off on Monday because of MLK holiday.

                                  Did you do both of those using only SketchUp? Do you have any suggestions - a description of your workflow, perhaps?

                                    . . . I'm taking a hiatus from this thread. After seeing ely862me's cars & others, I realize I'm stuck and I'm not making any significant progress - I'm not getting where I eventually want to be.

                                    Of course, I'm certainly not giving up - I'm going to figure out how to create the really cool stuff - just takes some folks longer than others, I guess.

                                    We all need a good kick in the pants every once in a while - I got mine. Ouch!

                                      Hey GT! Did you end up buying the book "How to Draw Cars Like a Pro"? It was a MonsterZero recommendation, so I went out and bought it!

                                      IT'S AWESOME! Get it! I think it will give you some really good inspiration!

                                          Yes! I got it from Amazon and yes, I like the book, it's very good - inspirational.

                                          Ha! I'll post again - I just want to have something new - something fresh & different to offer. I'm a bit frustrated getting to the next level - for me, with my limited skills and "dang-near-zero" creativity, it's quite challenging getting there.

                                          This journey began a few days ago as I started poking around the menus and there are several tools I've never used - perhaps that's obvious from my cars. I also realize - as others have mentioned - there are other s/w programs out there that are probably better suited for drawing amorphic shapes like body parts for cars. I'd still like to find out how far I can go with SU - looks like there will be lots of enjoyment as I continue.

                                          most important is to watch the wireframes to see how are done

                                          for having good proportions u can use temporary the position of the weels of a desired form of car
                                          This is great advice - thanks, I'll investigate this more and try it - I'm sure this will be useful - will help me figure this stuff out. πŸ˜„
