      Everyone else seems to be doing it, so I thought I'd have a go at modelling a car as well - Tried it before but never really got that far, but had a go today and seemed to come together better.

      Just a fairly quick try,nothing too fancy, but I quite like it...

                          wow, very impressive! could you tell me, how you get the curves where you want them to? πŸ˜„
                          (what do you use to achieve these smooth forms? Subdivide&Smooth?)

                            For the last one the bonnet was done with FFD to begin with (using some additional curves as guides for the FFD points), the bottom section/bumper was created with follow me to start with and then FFD. After that I did quite a bit of manual manipulation of points and drawing of curves to fine tune the shapes. The lights were a combination of manually drawing shapes, offset on surface and JPP. To be honest its a bit of trial and error at the moment.

                              I really like the vicious BMW like look of your new model - you are definitely getting there!

                                ok, this one is very similar to the previous, but this time I've tried starting with a low poly mesh and using sub-divide and smooth on it.
