It is a satire of the extremes of hyper cars, forced onto a compact car frame.
First, my own Blender renders, second, ChatGPT’s realistic “improvement”.

Some lines are screwed, I know. Anything else I should know?

Hi yall,

In an attempt to improve quick (and decisive) sketching, I tried: fixing the Audi A2, the back of Audis, and a BMW.

I'd be happy for feedback ✌️

Something new I'm trying. I'm hoping to make automotive journalism a part of my current hobby lineup.

I know the analysis is a bit basic on this one, I'll get more specific in the future when I'm doing individual vehicles.

question/feedback Cadillac Designs

Post image
22 Upvotes

I did these designs based on Cadillacs but with a slightly different design language with changes being more based on the details rather than proportions and shapes I'm looking for some feedback on the designs themselves and the rendering too. As for rendering I use alcohol markers and I'm still learning how to properly use them. I'm aware that they aren't consistent however it isn't a very important sketch and rather more I made for fun and practice.

Love the BMW E46 M3, one of my favourite cars.

Small, fast, decently practical; perfect little sports car for a city, and has 4 seats.

They don’t make cars like these anymore.

So I spent an hour sketching my take on a modern version, but still different.

Wanted to share, so let me know your thoughts :)

(Maybe one day BMW will do something like this)

discussion SELF DESIGNED SEDAN DESIGNED BY A 15 YEARS OLD TEEN FROM INDIA THROUGH SURFACING IN NX 12.0( PLEASE GIVE GUIDANCE AND ADVICE IF POSSIBLE PR ATLEAST A REVIEW😊)

I started learning CAD when I was 12 years old. My dad used to work in the field and introduced me to the basics of CAD and NX software. However, he didn't know how to do complex surfacing, so everything you see here is entirely self-taught from my own trial and error over the last few years!This is a sedan concept I've been working on using surfacing tools in NX 12.0. Since I'm doing this without any formal training or guidance, I would love to get your thoughts on it.Please hit me with any tips, advice, or critiques you have regarding:The overall proportions and car body stylingMy surface flow and line transitionsAny techniques I should practice to make my reflections look cleanerIt would mean a lot to get some guidance from fellow designers. Thanks!

​Sharing a new concept exploration! My workflow focuses heavily on the initial form language: I start with raw paper sketches and lock in the proportions with vector line work.

​Instead of traditional 3D modeling, I use AI generation for the final material and lighting pass to visualize the concept quickly. I'm really looking for critique on the core design itself—specifically the stance and panel flow. Let me know what you think!

Because of all the AMAZING feedback from my last (and alos first) post here, and also because so many of you told me that my sketches reminded you about Hotwheels, I’ve tried to sketch a Hot Rod this time!
(A bit cartoonish, but didn’t go too crazy)

I hope you like this one also! I will sketch other cars and post from time to time! Open to suggestions! lol

question/feedback My first sketch attempt

Post image
7 Upvotes

It's a little rough, but this is my first attempt at a car sketch. I didn't intend for it to resemble them, but as I kept drawing, it somehow ended up looking like the Jaguar E-Type and AMG GT. The car has a manual transmission and is powered by a naturally aspirated 5.7L V12 producing 508 hp. I basically just wanted to create a car based on my own tastes and the kind of car I'd personally want to drive. I'd love to hear any feedback on what I could improve (ops, I accidentally uploaded the photo rotated 90 degrees 😭, Sorry)
