That's turning into quite an interesting vehicle. I assume it will have leather seats and a six-speaker stereo system?

[skyhawk223]

Interesting look so far. Is it going to have a retro look?

thanks General Phoenix
I think i will put one speaker and only AM radio in it...hehehe

I'm not sure if it will have retro look at alll-maybe I'll just put a really huge clown on top instead

[skyhawk223]

That would work...

Great work so far! I like the front wheels extended out. Where did you get that idea from?

couldnt really decide what to do with inside ...for a while i couldnt do anything- My computer's power suplly got fried and it took one of my hard drives and a 512MB chip with it.

Finally up and running again
Here is an update

Idea came from a toy car i found sitting around

[skyhawk223]

Pretty slick. I would do something with that sharp edged piece by the driver's seat. I can see someone getting hurt upon entry.

It looks a great piece of machinery. No offence to you, but I love how the scenary looks cardboard cut out, I know it's probably to let you see what it looks like from every angle, but I always like background images as well, and it made me chuckle (and I shouldn't sorry), but the car looks fantastic!

thanks skyhawk223...i'll put some kinda leather trim or sumthin to go on that sharp edge...

thanks moovok I'm just using the cardboard cutout lookin things for reflections right now, I'll put this thing on a better background as soon as I can fugure out what else to add on to it

more chrome here and there with exhaust thinga-ma-jig on the sides

Lookin' better all the time!

You may want to add some sort of undercarriage, though - in that first image, the lack of any kind of visible suspension under the car takes away some of the realism.

okeedokee boss man
i will get on that right away!

[skyhawk223]

Nice. I like the wheels.

Thanks Skyhawk223!

Here are a few updates...I made the butt a little shorter-looked like a bug of some kind.
Still working on the trims n stuff.

I'll also work on the tires next I think.

[skyhawk223]

I like the foglights behind the passenger seats and the chrome you applied. Very tasty.
If it's pedal powered, what's under the hood? Storage?
Are you thinking about adding tread to the tires? You could even make them whitewall tires.
Ever think of adding a hood ornament?

thanks skyhawk223!

the hood is a place for your spare shoes-the trunk for spare socks...hehehe
whitewalls sound like a good idea. I am thinking of putting a hood ornament of some kind...like a chrome squirell maybe . And yes I will put some treads. what do you think about a rear spoiler?

[General Phoenix]

A spoiler would be pretty cool.

[skyhawk223]

I'm an anti-spoiler type of guy. However, if it looks cool, add one.

A squirrel would be an excellent hood ornament!

here it is with spoiler and rear bumper...Im tryin to figure out how to make a squirell or at least get one-hmmm....

Love the spoiler, and the interior is looking good, too. Very classy, with the chrome.

You're gonna have to come up with a good vanity license plate for it when you're done.

Maybe "CHERRY" or "RED DVL"...

sorry took a while...been working weird shifts...here is my vanity plate plus a top. hope u like.

[skyhawk223]

Leave them. The whole model looks great. Don't change a thing.
