Well about 2 hours or so later I came up with this. In a previous post (on the VCA boards) I mentioned that I wanted to get my drawing skills back. I can tell I'm getting closer, after a 3 month vacation from doing photography.Anyway this is what I had to do. The pictures I used are from the spy shots. Which sucked cause they lacked size and if I blew them up they would become pixelated. So with the small shots I had, it was hard to get the demensions just right. The hardest part was probably the front end. The rear was so-so, and I decided to start at the door.
The rear was slightly difficult because facing the front, the rear is blocked by a man and a minivan. So I took the rear shot and looked at it. I had to mock up the edges from scratch and I think it came out pretty well. I left out color. Black and white seems to work with this car and you can get a overall sense of how smooth the panels are.
To the concept spy shots I added a SRT scoop, Charger side vents, hood pins, hockey stick stripe with R/T on the end, and American Racing Wheels, like the ones used on the Howler so it keep with the retro style theme.
and no this was not traced. I do all my drawings completely free hand.
