Hello racers

I spend my whole day today to make this one car in PhotoShop, using only vector masks. It's my first vector art, so it has thundreds of bugs im currently lazy to correct :P but I want to know your opinion, thanks for any

Edit: because i'm working on next cars and others are posting their vector images i changed title of this topic

+1. I wouldn't even know where to begin.

opening Photoshop usually works pretty well for that.

The shoulder line looks like falling down, typical mistake when you start drawing cars, and the shadow on the ground should be more effective. The rest is pretty cool for the fist one

Being funneh

where do i start

Quote from logitekg25 :

where do i start

1. Take a big huge breath
2. Tell your family that you are leaving for the rest of the day
3. Open photoshop
4. Find some picture of what you want to draw
5. Play

If you dont know how to use Pen Tool then look for some tutorials, google knows but personaly i learned a lot myself while "just messing around"

Nice work. I started an R32 vector over a year ago aswell, but never bothered finishing it.

and i drew this 2 years ago when i started experimenting with markers :P

OP - nice vector! could do with some more shades in the front bumper area, which looks a bit pale right now, but other than that, nice work

oh the pen tool...you said vector, and i was like "a what?"

Both very nice ones ... Fuse5: I will improve it, i dont like the roof and windows and i possibily add some light tuning on it

Well i know how to use the pen tool, still puzzles me where to start
Nice one also Matrixi

It's becuase unlike LFS it doesn't have a viewer...takes forever to skin a car.

I'm not going to pay to get taken out...i have better things to do with dough.

Currently working on my first vector of the Pan Speed RX7



I'm finding it hard to do the lighting/shadows on the car, and the headlights

Any tips?

Nice work you done

I'd preffer to start with something easier, like the car without decals and tuning, with so less mirrored objects as possibile And starting with angle of view like mine seems easier to me

If you want to draw RX7 FD i personaly reccomend to try this first http://upload.wikimedia.org/wi ... ons/5/5f/Mazda-RX7-FD.jpg

Hi i would like to ask you a major favour I love your vector drawing and would like to put it on a t-shirt which i can make at work but i would like you to edit it a little for me.

Would it be possible to have the car itself at the same angle but without any of the shadowing behind the car and under the front bumper. Also could you take the writing off or if you like you could leave your signiture in same font and size and place it bottom right just under the wheel?

I will understand if you dont agree but i thought i would ask anyway I will upload photo of the finished t-shirt so you can see your work

His name already is there, beneath the cars name.

I know that but for the look i would like on the t-shirt i would like it moved to bottom right under the front wheel as i think this will work better on the t-shirt.

Thou would be possibile, just a question: Why?

I will try to do that tomorrow

You can't put car shadows on a shirt... You need only a car.

Thanks for replying m8 the reason i ask for no shadows is the straight lines when its printed to put on t-hirt make it look a bit stupid. The reason i want the print on a t-shirt is because i like the drawing and i think it will make a great T . Anyway thanks for doing this m8 like i said i will upload a pic of the finished item
