Barry...
Being a Yank, I haven't a clue what "chuffed" means, but it ought to mean something like "proud," "pleased," etc.
Your car is quite nice and if I had done it, I would have been both proud and pleased.

Nice start on the car. You and parahandy should go cruising.
I'm like WolfMoon, can't say that I've ever been "chuffed" before. If I was, I was probably napping!
Barry,
I agree. I hope chuffed means something good. The shading looks very good and I your car's style and design is unique. Very good job.
Careful, though, you might get addicted.

Very nice car drawing, Barry.

Only in South Africa can one country have 11 official languages - - - geez (slang).:) I can only speak three. Someone did point out to me that there is too much light showing through the rear wheel, I will have to fix that. I used to just draw all my lineart in Xara and shade in Paint Shop Pro. The Xara forum is great. Thanks everyone!!
Great looking car Barrym for the first shading work.
Re: My Xara Car
Great looking car Barry, nice shading, and why does no one know what chuffed means? Obviously never been to Yorkshire!
