Not bad!
Those pics hold quite a bit of style from the 4th gens.........the front end kinda reminds me of a Cadillac CTS.

Looks good! I especially liked the "unadorned" one! But that's just my style. Keep up the good work!

Thumbs up SMOKIN'

Man this thing is Smokin. IMO this is exactly what needs to be done on a supposed 5th gen Camaro! Which is to blend all generations into 1 (as the man said) Badass Camaro. At the very least this is a really good start for our new Camaro, Chevrolet ... Chevrolet .... anyone there.... The rear end shot, what u can see of it reminds me of the mid yr Vettes a little. Maybe some round pods to pay homage to the early Vette & early 2nd gen Camaro, or something that reminds u of all gens. This IMO is not, dare I say... retro. This reminds me of all the generations whereas to me retro is more focused on a certain year or look. Nice Job. I'm sure a lot of people would like to see more on this design.

Eventhough I joked about the size....I love the wheels. Sort of a modern rendition of American's Racing wheel. Sooo appropriate for a Z/28!

Speaking of the Z/28, I like the placement of the Z/28 emblem on the driver's side grill. And it looks like a real emblem too...not something that you pulled out of a Monogram model kit like the 4th gen's.

That's really good I wish I could draw that well. I have dozens of ideas in my head. Suggestions: try increasing the width and length, and lower it maybe 3 or 4 inches because it looks a little stubby. The overall design it awesome, and I see a little from all generations in there. I wonder what a "base" version of this body style would look like? Like a V6 version, no hood scoop no gfx no spoiler, smaller wheels.

Doh, what is that?? Where's the Camaro in it?? The lines actually look a little like the next M*****g.

You design dudes need to make a car that has obvious 1st-Third Gen cues, (maybe a little 4th) and mix that with some new exciting designs, but still a car that could be identifed as a Camaro. I wish there was a way to make visable concepts of my ideas for a bunch of cars including the Camaro, but since I'm not capable of it, I guess they'll just stay ideas. Isn't there a computer program you can stuff like that with??

I see alot of 1st and 3rd gen influence in that drawing. The grill even reminds me of the 2nd gen '80,'81 Z/28 louvered grill.

Dayum ....thanks for all the compliments

It's like 1 degree outside , since I really have no desire to go outside I'll probably work more on it tomorrow . Try to get color in and get the proportions actually right , try to get rid of the 40" wheels and the WAY to W I D E track look . I think that'll make a huge difference .

I've noticed just about every car nowadays, import or domestic, uses converging hood lines to look like eyebrows on top of a pissed-off looking headlight. Not saying it's a bad thing, but it just didn't used to be that way.
