. . . adding another couple of details and a little smush here, tug here . . . trying to get the proportions decent . . . argh . . .

. . . wee bit of tweaking . . .

. . . another quick sketch . . . yeah, yeah, I know - more of the same, why not something new & different . . . and . . . of course, you're right . . .

**%(#008000)[**WOW!

Thanks!

Very cool!]

. . . okay, then please, by all means, go for it . . . this is definitely NOT the "last revision" . . . but have fun . . . and THANKS . . . perhaps this will inspire me (once again) to take these models a bit further into the next level . . . . . . no apologies for my really crappy, ultra-quick sketch . . . . . . this one doesn't have the tail lights in it . . . oops . . . that version is at work and I am NOT going there this week (spring break) . . . happy sketching, Brad

Yes please.

Sorry BLANK, but this isn't going to happen any time soon - I'm back in Graduate school, building a Venom Creeper, writing a research paper, cutting grass - plus, I still have wifey's cars to take care of and let's don't mention her poodles . . .

@unknownuser said:

P.S Btw i spoted ur wifes car and i took a picture(hope she dont mind)
Wrong color - her's is red. She sometimes lets me drive it - not often.

I wonder if my cars would look better if I added lots of cool details and then rendered them . . . ? . . .

@unknownuser said:

U do have a unique style and u really don t what to try something new..maybe time doesn t let u to improve ur cars ..
Time is a problem for me - I am in school, getting my Master's degree and this takes lots of my "after work" time. Then, there's the wife - she want's me to cut the grass, paint the house, wash her SL65 AMG, shampoo her poodles, walk her poodles, feed her poodles, brush her poodles, . . . you get the idea . . .

. . . this was too ugly . . . almost blinded me - had to delete them . . .

. . . sketch for the day . . .

Maya style, if I understand what youre doing
The shortcuts are there: ctrl+1, 2, 3 enable front, left, top etc (not in this order I am only making an exmple here)

I tried CTRL+1, & so forth - this doesn't work on my machine (Windows version).

. . . found this one in the archives - I have several dozens of these things - never got past a certain stage before I ditched the sketch and moved on . . . I must stay out of my archives - I use four computers - each has a bucket full of these things - someday I will gather them all together and flush them down the digital toilet . . .

Happy Sketching,

Brad

This one - a slight resemblance to two of your later models - got me thinking:

Ray & others,

I hope this isn't thread jack and I know there are a zillion great links out there but this one caught my eye - dig down on this link and you can find some really cool cars - one of them really reminded me of one of Ray's recent cars - very cool stuff.

. . . another quicky . . .

@unknownuser said:

So far I got to page 39 and I'm really impressed.
Thanks - coming from you, that's a very nice compliment - encouraging.

. . . here's a quick sketch/idea for the nose shape . . .

Almost a month without a post? What's wrong with me? Grad school, that's it.

Here's another super-quicky concept sketch, nothing special . . . I really miss being able to use SketchUp!

Happy Sketching,

Brad

![I'd love to take time to "soften" this one up - I think it has potential.](/uploads/imported_attachments/sQ1M_bw_car_rename_233_A_01.jpg "I'd love to take time to "soften" this one up - I think it has potential.")

I'm not a big fan of Harry Potter movies, but that car is simply "wicked" dude.

You rock - keep going.

Not a big deal: four lines in an email.

I sent the four lines in an email.

They sent an automated reply indicating they're so busy, it may take five business days to respond to my email inquiry. Based on my transaction thus far, it appears that Academic Superstore doesn't run a very high quality operation.
