      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. 😎

                    Ah! I just remembered. The Mercury Merkur 4xti.

                      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)

                                      More front end refinement.

                                        I like the white.

                                        Now try Twilight Render Hobby with a metallic shine parked in a neat city setting. I think it would be neat. πŸ˜†

                                          Added tire texture from the 3D Warehouse.

                                            Still have a few more details to finish before I do the first render.

                                            Do know where I can get a good city street HDRI? It has to be free. I can find a couple of parking garages, but that's all I can find.
