    Default Little Yellow_Roadster

    Who would like to own one of these or do you have one mouldering away in a barn?

    Another cracker Norman, though the tread on the nearest tyre looks a bit odd.

    I am not very good on tyres but I have been experimenting with blends etc, part Ron's tutorial, part modification
    So if you look at the modified picture Mark I think it's an improvement but a ways to go yet for perfection. By the way I am calling you Mark but your avator is a lady so if I've got it wrong apologies.
    Thanks also to Bill and John.

    They just keep getting better & better!! Very nice work Norman. Just out of curiosity, whats the average amount of time put into these beauties?
    I love the reflections on the fenders, especially... Top notch!

    You are right, there is a significant improvement and now it looks quite ok. The wheels with tyres and spokes can be a pain from that angle. On the few cars I have drawn I have always started with the wheels to get rid of the most difficult task first.
    Very convincing chrome work. Well done!

    Thank you Geminguy. It can take anywhere from 4hours to 4 days. Most of the time is spent on the tyres /wheels/spokes. I have spent as long as 5 hours just on one wheel. Sometimes the fender chrome is done with the chrome plug-in other times with different fills I make. The chrome on the radiator is just shades of different colours.

    That's much better, outstanding work Norman.

    Yes, my name is Mark, no I'm not a ladee, but I like drawing them, so that's why I use this avatar.
