Pick a Part for all

[Ron Duke]

For anyone interested in drawing vehicles, I've attached a Xara file
for you to pick apart. You can learn how I accomplish my drawings and
achieve various effects. This is not one of my prized drawings, I'll
admit, but it does provide some teaching points for those who
want a start at this type of drawing.


As you all know, there are a number of individuals that contribute
to this forum that could provide better techniques and results,
but I just thought I'd share a bit of what I have learned.


I hope this will be helpful to some out there.

That is very generous of you Ron. It's interesting to isolate your layers.

I think all users can benefit from this preview of your drawing. I think my mon had that model. She loved Buicks.

I agree, thanks

I don't draw cars, but I discovered something really useful in the way you made the glass for the headlights with a combination of transparency and fill

Very generous and organized work Ron, I never couldn't organize any of my drawings, eagerness always beats me :-)
Thank you very much again.

I can't believe that I had not said thanks for such a generous gift.
THANKS, Ron

Thank you for sharing your work. It's very educational. Nice touch that you included the factory color chart. Tampico Red is my favorite.

Yes, Thanks Ron.

I have always admired your subjects and techniques.

I can learn from this and apply some of it to my aircraft if that is OK with you.
