Post everything here you did on your own, related to automotive design.
Sketches, renderings, own made cars, etc.

I'll start with something I just did today:

Years ago, I did do a design. Then in 2007 I think Michiel van den Brink had a design contest on Autoblog for a new DAF.

I am admitting that I am not the greatest designer, but I do think it is not that bad either.

Even with copyright this time, haha.

WOW!!! Amazing! I've never worked with Blender, but with Cinema 4D. Unfortunately I never made a car so far..
The Monteverdi was done with vector software Freehand MX, but with 3D renderings you usually play in a different league..
Did you take Blender to render and for 3D construction or did you import the 3D (splines, solids) files which were generated by some other software?


Maybe I take your works as a challenge. :)

I'm still learning I am getting better. You can find blue prints for an incredible variety of cars here http://www.smcars.net which helps a lot when building the model.

Amazing work indeed, guys!

Don't want to nitpick, but Arthur, 'Aerosan' should be written as 'aerosani', which means 'aero sledge' in Russian - it's not the builders name.
