XD you posted those updates while I was catching some Z's.
Looks really awesome. A little toony but it's a WIP. It could be me but the proportions at the rear is a little off.

Moncef · 12-24-2007, 01:04 PM

Thanks, yeah I think I had like four updates within 24 hours. Hmm...I have no life.

I think it's the lighting on the taillight panel.

Reckoner · 12-24-2007, 04:33 PM

That BG looks fimiliar

Moncef · 12-24-2007, 04:58 PM

Hmm I want a basic background because I can't do reflections that well

Maybe I could work something out with the stock one.

Reckoner · 12-24-2007, 06:03 PM

I'm sure you'll figure it out. But I must say, reflections are hard!!! Well way off topic, it's 12:01 am here so merry Christmas guys!

Moncef · 12-24-2007, 06:08 PM

Yeah, what the plan is I'm just gonna whip up a simple background and perhaps do some basic reflections.

Man, there's still 8 hours left until christmas over here! Isn't it past your bedtime?

Reckoner · 12-24-2007, 06:46 PM

Moncef · 12-25-2007, 12:43 AM

Haha

I'm working on it, how about some positive feedback?! lol. Almost there, update #10 has just got up!

-Moncef

Reckoner · 12-25-2007, 05:03 AM

Sexy!! Instead of making those black areas in the windows maybe make it white or something. IMO the rear wheel has too much negative camber, it completely makes everything look like it's off

lowkey · 12-25-2007, 09:54 AM

fiuh long time holiday...
hey awesome work mr cef. cool chop, but i still think drifter cars should be in dark colors, but the body work was nicely done mr cef.

-low-

Moncef · 12-25-2007, 01:10 PM

Thanks guys. Meh color is just preference, this is my first brush so doing black would take a lot more work and probably wouldn't come out as well anyways.

And Reckoner, yeah I have to do something with the windows, hmm it doesn't really look like there's much negative camber on the rear...it could be the shadowing that looks like it's tucking into the fender. Thanks man, for the feedback on every update!

My list for finishing touches:
-Gauge faces
-Work on windows
-Camber(?)
-Taillight illumination
-Further work on road

-Moncef

Reckoner · 12-25-2007, 03:18 PM

OK I had another look at it and I don't think the camber is a problem. I think it's just that the rear wheel whel is MASSIVE. I guess that's the body design though but maybe, just maybe it was an accedent but I suppose it's down to personal prefrence

Moncef · 12-27-2007, 12:38 AM

The massiveness of the wheel well is in fact, by design.

I decided not to mess with the glass, I think it looks cool, touched up the photo a little bit, added some exhaust smoke and put gauge faces on. I added rocks to the edge of the road as well.

UPDATED! To the top!

Mike Minnillo · 12-27-2007, 02:18 PM

looks good dude. im still not digging that "carbon", and the exhaust looks a bit toony. well, the whole car looks kinda toony to me. those wheels are teh seks. the rear end makes the car look like it has a big fat @ss. and whats that shadow looking thing just forward of the left front fender? overall, i give you a 8/10 on this. the thing that really kills it for me is the rear end.
