'64 Studebaker Gran Turismo

Did one years ago, but wasn't that happy with it. Besides, I can't find the old file. Soooooo, I drew it again.
Didn't use any of the special effects as they add too much to the file size.

WOW!!! Totally unbelievable how good that is! You did a fantastic job! I like the blue highlights in the chrome.
Now that I look a little closer it almost looks like there's a little town reflected in the chrome of the front bumper. Cool!

Love it Ron!!!

I knew a guy who had the largest personal Studebaker collection in the western US. He live in Reno, NV.

Awesome work!

Love it!! It was a sad day when Studebaker closed their last factory.

What a beautiful looking car Ron, kinda big for my drive.
Bob what a keen eye you have, thanks for drawing my attention to that detail.

Great drawing Ron! As some said before the blue highlights against the background lift the picture.

That's because you're capable of creating your own special effects! Impressive work.

I guess you'd never draw other cars - like a, Gremlin X?

The interplay of light, shadow & reflection is nice. Groovy Ron! Let's see a Moulded Cartoon version.

When you draw a new car do you always link your colors?

Thanks all!
I'm no good at being creative, but here's a version of the car with a perpective applied. And yes, all my cars have linked, shade of or tint of a color.
