Over the past few months, with the conversion from traditional to digital sketching, I really struggled getting odd auto-shapes down well. The solution? Plunk down one afternoon and sketch as you normally would on paper. It felt weird, but with the experience I had on the tablet, combined with the concerted effort to improve on something that I felt I wasn't up-to-snuff with, I was able to produce this pic of a vintage Auburn 851 Speedster (The classic boattail car)! Let that be proof that one CAN improve if they WANT to improve. :)

Oh, and of course no car pic of mine is complete nowadays without some character interaction, so I decided to have Artimus confidently assuring Livingston that they'll slip by this patch of woods unnoticed. In a rare vintage car. Wah wah!

The Auburn Speedster belongs to its respective owners. Artimus & Livingston and the artwork belong to me.

Comments and suggestions welcome. :) Enjoy!

I'm sure a ride like that will go unnoticed for sure.

Absolute top-notch perspective and linework on the Speedster here, along with the details. :nod: Good luck to Artimus and Livingston in not getting noticed, though! :XD:
Really digging the background here as well with its earthy tones and the blur effect used, as if to illustrate the car's motion, well done! :thumbsup:

Beautiful boattail Auburn. I think they looked the best in the color like the one on the picture.

Yeah, I loved the light yellow look to those big early 30s luxo-boats like these! :) Thanks a lot for the comment and the fave as well! :highfive:

I love the thick out-lining and the perspective.

I've really gotten back to the thick outlines again like I used to do traditionally. It really helps the linework stand out. :) Thanks for the vote of confidence, AM! :thumbsup:
