      I preffer making them in normal way.
      Could we agree each method has advantages? Hope so.

      I think you should start a new thread now called "My Cars have a completely new Look!"
      Consider it "done" - thanks for the suggestion. Interesting you made this observation b/c I took the time to look through each post of this thread last weekend - I think it's time to move on to something new, something fresh, something that represents perhaps a new level.

      Thanks for the suggestions - happy Sketching,

            I think it looks great, I especially like the front air dam. I've just started posting, I've added my first post of my latest WIP...

                  I think the mirrors give it a sort of insect-like aesthetic.

                            Hey Ray or GreenToaster, do you know how to use that smooth function. It baffels me totally. 😲

                            Models are looking good btw.

                              [1] select the geometry you wanna smooze
                              [2] with screen cursor over selected geometry, right click, pick "Soften/Smooth Edges"

                              Thanks - I'm just having fun, I don't take this very seriously - I guess that's obvious though. πŸ˜‰

                              Thanks - I fixed the cabin - it was too close to the front, proportions were way off, but, it took 12 seconds to make it better.

                              Sub & smooth works great, I just can't figure out how to make it do much with concept car designs - superb for making happy creatures like "Sergeant Bunny" below . . . I'm having fun with it and will continue to work with it until I discover how it'll help. Certainly, it is fantastic for smoothing & so forth - like any tool, only as good as the user, eh?

                              Happy Sketching,

                                Today is my last day of vacation so I probably won't be posting any more concepts for a while. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I did this one - the front fenders were shaped using the subdivide & smooth script. Obviously, I need a lot more practice with that tool. All the other geometry was done "manually."

                                Happy Sketching,

                                  . . . WIP . . . I usually don't build them using this technique but I guess it works okay . . . this one is very rough, but it's easy to align and smooth out the bumps using the scale tool . . .

                                      I don't use the sand box - I have cats and so, I stay away from sand boxes . . .

                                      But really, I never use it - what does it do?

                                        Its for making terrain and things in that form. you can make nice smooth tweaking

                                          So, Ray, do you use it?

                                          Should I be using it?

                                          Am I ever going to start detailing and rendering?

                                            Am I ever going to start detailing and rendering?

                                            I use it when I'm experimenting with the shape of the car but its not THAT important of a tool don worry bout it
