    Here's a imitation pencil drawing I did on my computer of my Maverick, tell me what you think. The whole thing took about 30 minutes from start to finish.

    Hey 71gold, I'd be glad to make one for you if you want. I've been out of the image game for about 2 years now but I used to be pretty good back in the day, if you've got a source picture, send it to me. I'm also working on figuring out how to make "toon'd" cars (with superchargers, out of proportion wheels, etc).

    If anyone wants one of these, all I need is a source image. The bigger and clear'er the better.

    So is that hand drawn or do you just take a picture and kinda bleach it out? Either way it looks pretty cool.

    Mavaholic: It's actually a process using filters, freehand editing, and a pretty good eye for images. But like I said, you do a couple and you've got the hang of it. That's pretty much the first big image I've done in a long time, and I'm pretty proud of how it came out. Thanks again for the compliments.

    hooptyfrood(a)gmail.com send them there. I'm about to crash for the night, I work retail and tomorrow is a 12 hour day of heck, so don't expect to hear much for a day or two.
