Green Toaster's Car Sketches

all of that looks amazing! great job!
Thanks but you should see what professionals do - my stuff is very elementary, simple and downright embarrassing when compared to many others.

Here's another super quick model - more of the same "boring" technique, but fun and fast . . .

I discovered a new way to do sweeping edges --> roof uses an inverted triangle with the Follow Me tool - I like the way the roof turned out: sloped and curved.

. . . last one tonight . . . (sound of me snoring) . . .

I am reminded of the pinewood derby I used to race.

I've seen some pros at work. I also do some car designing, not on the level I'd like, but i'm not bad with 3D Studio with NURBS. Sketchup really isn't the best platform for car design, but it is one of the easiest to jump into and one of the easiest, if not the easiest to get a hang of...

Kind of a drag when i have to go back to Studio since studio is little more complex and redundant with its actions. You're doing well, and the edges are really nice

. . . sort of a Hummer type of thing . . .

. . . I need a life . . . hard to tell probably, but I'm trying a simple new thing . . . I try to limit my time on these to ten minutes or less (importing wheels) . . .

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...

. . . today's car - trying the drape tool (?) which is fun . . .

GreenToaster

. . . don't like the roof but . . . another good learning experience I guess . . .
