killer job

nice work Dave!!!!!!! I use to own a 95' eclipse.........lol

Yep, I do remember that lesson from earlier discussions, it's just that I SUCK at doing ANY fine shadowing right now.

There's like one good one on the whole car (under one of the side purple scallops), the rest are pathetic.

I used superthinned fastint for all of it. I should have gone dark green on the side shadows, but I was being lazy. I really need to work on width and shape of the shadow lines, too. But practice time is hard to come by, but I need it.

After looking at this design after it was done, I really decided that it looked better on paper than on the body. The elements are too disconnected, almost like the hood "bird" on a TransAm. It doesn't flow. I need to work on that, but I hate to keep drawing stuff that looks like anybody else's work. I'm struggling to find "my style". Back to the sketch pad!

If you were going for a traditional drop shadow then I guess it was overdone. I actually thought you were trying to make it overdone like that and I kind of liked the look that it came out with. Yo usay that it doesn't flow well (maybe the hood with the rest of the body? ) But I am still a fan of the sides and trunk.

What's small and has drips?

NO! This....

The mini T body market has been cornered by dave and son!

Practice work that actually will sell on eBay! Gotta love it.

Trimmed and sorta on a truck...

Did you drive that when it was raining? Looks like it has water on it.

Looks great Dave! What is the dark blue color in the back?? Very cool!

Fasescent purple - pearl blue - Autoair metallic silver

So it's actually purple, blue & silver?? Looks like dark blue, light blue & pearl silver or pearl white...my camera does the same thing

VERY purple. I can't figure out how to photograph it without it turning blue in the pic's?

All of my purples do that & also the dark blues lighten up drastically...

I know the flash brings out the blue pearls in the paint...

Wing on...
