That is a lovely drawing Leon.

I am glad it is working out for you.

another car i drew today! using chalksand a rubber:)

Looking good... little merc hatch... nice plan lets hope merc follow it up

Always good to see the level of your skill. Glad to hear you're enjoying the course.

had a play with useing the page as the main colour and just filling in the shading and reflections, turned out pretty well i think!

That actually works very well

Thats some really really nice work!!! well done - hope everything is going ok!

another sketch i did this evening perspective isnt spot on:P, i should draw other things than skoda's tho!

What did you use there? rather nice

chalks and markers:) got this one of my new fabia too...

this is no criticism on you, but I have to say I'm not a fan of putting the indicator lights nearer the middle of the car than the headlights.

I always think they should be as far towards the outer edges of the car as possible.

Your drawings are great, by the way.

citroen c4! maybe, hehe:P

Awsum stuf Leon ... wish I could design buildings as well as you design cars!! Lookes really good ... glad Uni is going well and all that ... I got soooo much work on at the moment it really sucks!

Thats nice - what effect was the shine on the light?

used a bit of dodge tool, and a lense flair in the render options:)

Hi Leon. It's strange that your cars seem to have faces - an earlier one almost aggressive, the most recent a happy one. Do you see that as well?

When you draw all the windows without pillars, is that a good idea? I'm thinking that as pillars are intrinsically vertical, would they not distort the flow of the smooth forward-sweepingness of your usual designs, so should be taken account of in the initial thinking?

I'm curious what your design for a "Smart" car 10 years on would look like.

Re indicator lights, it often gets to me that you can't see them in the brightness of the headlights. I wouldn't mind seeing an extra set at roof level, a bit like you get an extra higher brake light on most cars now. I guess safety as well as "green" in the future could well be a "seller".

just different things i look at and take on board to creat different faces! i havent noticed really but i see where your coming from! from what i've herd a pillars are constantly being pushed forward and therefore dashboards becoming more deeper, so a swept windscreen wouldnt be a big issue, the only things is that theres only so thick you can have a thick a pillar before you have a massive blind spot.... yeah the 3rd level indicators have crossed my mind in the past just never really thought about it! its a good point!

my design for a smart car in 10 years time.... ill give it a go!

thanks mate! should get better at it in time!

I'm glad you as a designer recognise that, as I do seem often to be dodging backwards and forwards to avoid the blind spot from the a-pillar on my Fabia. That said, if it's a "ten years on" project, maybe they will have developed some form of see-through resin or mirrored edges (whatever) for a-pillars to eliminate that problem :holmes:

PS I can't draw for toffee either

my new pickup! coupe, 2 door style...but with room to chuck the dog in the back!? bit of a lifestyle choice i wouldnt mind one:P
