Ok, so here is the first one that is in the other post, and you guys asked for more realism, so here you go.

Let me know which one looks better.

 

notice that the second has Tires, ground clearance, rear view mirrors, an antenna, door handles, wipers, and the front bar deleted.

Also forgot to mention the body lines were added i.e. front bumper to fender and hood.

 

VERY COOL! I love this as opposed to the rehashed frst gen boxes we've been seeing.

Do you take requests? If you have time, can you shorten the grill and add a lip spoiler?

 

Looking like an Aston Martin is definitely not a bad thing. I like them both.

 

Yeah, I like that too... like the prev. poster said... make the grill slightly (about an eighth) less tall. Nice work - proprtions are quite Camaro-esque with the long hood & short deck!

 

Sure, I can do that a little later today.

 

Simply Badass sir.

 

I think it's cool. Kinda has a RX-8/Aston Martin look to it. Very nice man! I wouldn't change the grille. Kinda has that 70-73 Camaro look.

 

when I try to change the grill, it looks exactly like a 98+ with different headlights, so that does not work (not that I don't like that front end, you can't drop a car for 6 or 7 years and bring it back with the same look).

I will try to clean it up again though. First I owe a guy a color rendering of a BMW project.

 

Hmmm.. looking at it more, I think you're right... I could see that 2nd gen grill working a treat, esp. if it were anodized black on a balck car. Could be very tough looking when combined with an agressive looking front air-dam. Looking forward to seeing the finsihed article!

BTW - how about adding a 2nd gen inspired style ducktail spoiler?

 

actually there is a ducktail on it, just not very tall for two reasons, drag and rear visability.

 

Good work. That fornt end kicks ***. I think the rear deack is a little too claustrophobic but it looks mean as hell.

 

claustrophobic? How do you mean?

I am trying to learn how to accept input or suggestions and implement it into my design

I didn't do the rear end on the Second version, because it needs a lot more work. But on the first version, the lights are lines that trace the outside shape of the 69 tails, they would be LEDs, so the small shape would be plenty bright enough.

 

For the tail lights, have you thought about something along the lines of miniature flourescent (sp?) or electroluminesence lighting? I seem to recall some concept cars using it.

I like the idea of using an 'edge' light or 'halo' to define the shape.

 

well fluorescent lights might work on a concept car, but LEDs are brighter, and consume less power. Also Fluorescent lights have a shorter lifespan, LEDs on the other hand last I think 50 times longer than conventional bulbs.

But the good thing about them is that since they are so small they can be placed in any configuration.
