Looks really good! My only critique is to fix that lower rear passenger tire. Perspective is difficult. Are you planning on making any others or maybe inking them?
Yeah I'll fix that wheel anyway, I only really realised how bad iz looks after taking the image.
And yeah, perspective is a real bitch, which is why I'm trying the grid method first to get a feel for the proportions of the car(s).
And yeah, I'll draw more cars, I'll probably finish them off in colour pencils, maybe watercolor and maybe markers though, hard edges look a bit weird to me on car drawings so no ink
Thank you! Though my reference is a 1970 240z instead of a 280, but the cars look almost identical anyway.
And the 240 is my absolute dream car, but now at age 30 in central Europe, I'm not sure if I can get my hands on one before ICE cars are banished in old city centers...
One thing that stands out to me on the reverse view - other than the Roger Rabbit tire, of course - is the shame of the roof as you move toward the front. The front view seems to suggest the slope comes down to be almost parallel with the ground, while the reverse view suggests it points up like 20 degrees. I don't know which is ground truth for this model car, but I suspect it comes close to parallel with the ground.
I can see where it looks like you made changes to the front height of the drivers side window. It's possible you went a millimetre too high or so there.
But that's just nitpicking. Again, it's a really great sketch.
Yeah, I know, but I didn't want to disimprove it so yeah. Gotta say, even with a grid it's very hard to pinpoint the cut off points or angles exactly, but I'm pretty confident that I'll get better at setting them the more I end up drawing cars.
