This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

I don't like that I immediately knew what you're referring to.

And pretty decent I think, I also dabble in heraldry and dragons are a popular motive in that field lol

Well let's see, you know, for...ugh science

[–] Minulf@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Yeah, "science"

My first car was a 280z and I instantly recognized the body style!

That is fantastic.

[–] Minulf@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

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...

Sadly I sold it almost 20 years ago, but it was fun while it lasted!

Six inline cylinders of pure sexy.

Far better than I can do! Keep up the good work!

Cars are incredibly difficult. Well done

[–] Kichae@kbin.social 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This is really good!

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.

[–] Minulf@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

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.

Thank you for the encouragement!

Very cool, do keep sharing

[–] Minulf@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

I will, I started the colouring process on that one :D
