Hey guys, I'm new to the forums so I wasn't quite sure where I should place this thread. Hopefully it's in the right spot, if not, could a mod please move it to an appropriate place? Thanks!


Anyways, I've been drawing my whole life and specialize in realistic animals, but I decided to branch out and try new things. I've always wanted to try my hand at a car and so did such recently and I thought I'd share what I've done so far.

I wasn't quite sure what kind of style I wanted to go for but I decided on having a realistic look merging into sketchy into inked, to really emphasize that it's a drawing. I've seen some really sick drawings of cars, but sometimes they just look so real it's like "well you might have just taken a picture, it looks the same". Then I've seen some b&w sketches and while some are good, it's just boring.

And here's where I'm kicking myself... I don't know why I decided to go with blue (maybe because that was the colour of the reference picture I'm using?? I dunno), kind of wishing I went with either lime green or dark red. Probably going to try and darken it so it's more like a cosmic blue instead of that signature wrx blue haha fml.
In any case, I was originally planning on doing a carbon fiber hood and top (though the ref pic is just a stock blue mr) but I fear it might make the overall picture too dark.
Opinions? Carbon fiber or stay with the blue?

Also what do you suggest for a background? I am terrible for backgrounds, I almost never do one for any animal drawings I do, so I'd have no idea what looks good with a car.


I'd appreciate any constructive criticism as this is my first automotive drawing (actually, first drawing that isn't fur or scales).

I do have another car drawing I want to do, or at least I know what kind of style I want to do it in; I just can't decide what kind of car I want to do, I was thinking another evo. So if anyone has a nice ride and maybe wants to get it drawn, pm me and we'll talk - I'm willing to give you a print of the finished thing in exchange for some reference pics of your car to use. I am pretty picky about what I like in a car though! (to give you an idea, I like evos and such - street cars) Ooo, or a bike! I LOVE ninjas, mostly the newer ones. So if you have a '13 300r or something like, I'm a sucker for those! (saving up for a 300r myself, hopefully the '14 comes out in white for canada next year...) <3 crotch rockets

I'm gonna vote for a Mazdaspeed Protege for obvious reasons, but either way man that is a bad ass drawing.

I'm done... well.. as done as I'm ever gonna get... This is one piece I'll never call complete and was pretty heartbreaking to 'finish'...

This was actually supposed to be a surprise gift for Tristan Queyras, whom I sure all of you have already heard about...

If anyone is wanting a print, all proceeds (minus cost of printing) will be made out to the Humane Society in his name, pm if you're wanting one.
Various choices for what you want it printed on (ie foam board, mounted plaque, stretch canvas, vinyl, cardstock, etc).
Can get it in it's original size (14"x8") or blown up to no larger than twice it's size (24"x16" - not overly suggested as it distorts the quality)
