I drew this a while ago.

 

Nothing personal but I don't really like it. I think the FD looks good in stock or close to it form. Just my .02, thanks for sharing.

 

Hmm. I actually like it. If only they could make that instead of the rumored RX-7 design I would take it.

 

thats pretty good from a perspective point of view. the rx7 is not a very easy car to sketch

 

Clean that up and it might be halfway feasable.

 

Skip the fog lights, which almost look like turbines. Fog lights just aren't necessary, and I hate how some front ends have very large ones. The stock ones on my touring are all right, but they are very small. The front end should be all about providing air to the various components that need it (IC, rad, oil coolers). Those fog lights would probably create a lot of turbulence, diminishing the free flow or air into the opening.

I respect your drawing skills, although they are a little rough. I seem to be the only person who can deform every stick person I draw, so I'm not a great estimator of skill.

 

Bold new world....good for you!

I think all the designers need fresh ideas. Is it me, or does every car coming out now look like a Camry?

Wait a minute - every new car IS a Camry!

 

you know, you could have molded the front bumper to the body... its not too hard, just erase that little line between the fender and the front bumper

 

not bad like everybody else said just clean it up remove the fog lights and maybe add some color

 

Ha ha...that gave me a good chuckle Gordon.

To Italian Rotorsport: That is much better than I could ever draw...looks good.

 

I made some changes.

 

hey italian rotorsport....if you like to draw and want to get some input from other artists...check out my website www.conceptart.org

there is a message board with all sorts of artwork and different kinds of artists on there.

its a lot of concept art for games and film and whatnot but if you want to push your drawing skills there are some great people on the site who will help you.

I can't draw it better! Nice drawing, however, the fog lights look funny, and the drawing is a bit dirty.
But I admit you're good.

 

Italian Rotorsport - I think you drawing looks nice. It's not an easy car to improve on, atleast not for me! Here are a few drawings I posted in the Lounge back in Feb/02. Just tried to make it more look more aggressive, without making to many changes.

Sorry, for the yellow tint in the photo's.

oc94rx7, The Yahoo site says that the album is currently empty. Just letting you know.

 

Honestly, not to be an ***, but because I see the pencil skills being very rudimentary yet the actual lines of the shape being so perfect (yet jagged, thus some of the pencil skill comment), I'm going to ask you with assertion if you traced a 1/4 view FD picture and then reinterpreted the aftermarket cosmetics on it?

 

You could make something very nice.
But right now it doesn't look like anything breathtaking.

Here are my suggestions. Work on the basic shapes (of the car at first, and the front bumper) so you can redraw a very nice looking car with little effort. Maybe even exagerate some parts by using shading.

Round the openings more. No offense but your bumper looks like a 99 bumper w/ 3 rectangles in it.

I know Gordon made some very very nice "near stock" drawings, and used lots of shading that made them look great. Hopefully Gordon will chime in again and give you some tips.

Keep drawing the same car, and just changing some little things each time, you'll improve on the bsaic shape. Get better at drawing. Have a much cleaner paper (rather than erasing), and you will find better ideas as you keep redrawing it.
Almost like watching the same movie over and over. You find something new each time.

 

Turp182 - Thanks for telling me the photo's did not work. Forgot to click off the Private viewing. Should be working now.
