    I like the colour ...... probably not available in 1948 though. Looks like another winner Norman.

    Glad to see you're still making those cars, Norman. My cousin used to have a big red 1947 Buick Roadmaster convertible in the early 50's. Very classic automobiles.

    For Sledger and others who like to see the wiremap plus the bits and pieces. All on only one layer. I have removed the background.

    Very stylish Norman. Love the coloring in this. I did a 1948 Caddy a couple of years ago, but the body style is much different from yours. Do you know which model Caddilac this is?

    The custom coach builder gave this one a very Packard like look to it.

    Great work on the trees Norman.

    I think the drawing would look better on a colored background. The perspective for the car does not match the perspective of the landscape and it makes the car look wrong. On a colored background there is no perspective...

    Very nice detailed rendering. You just get better at this all the time.

    Thank you Gary. I believe your right it does look better on a coloured background.
