marian87.deviantart.com/ surprised me by making an awesome 3D computer model of one of my made-up car designs. I was very impressed, and quite flattered that he chose to make a model of one of my designs when there are so many cars to choose out there. it was great seeing a proper 3D version of my idea, from different angles - it looked just how I imagined it.
And that made me wonder. I wonder if anybody else would be interested in having a go. I mean, if you like cars, have nothing better to do, and would be interested of course.
I'm not asking for, or desperately wanting people to do this - no obligation at all. But I sure would be interested in seeing models of some of them, and appreciative of those who want to make them.
If you are up for a mission I've compiled a little list of the various car designs I've made, a link to the picture on DA, and a little description saying whether the design is good or may need some reworking.
Whether "It would be interesting" , "it'd be nice" or "I would love" to see a model of one of my drawings kinda hint which ones I'd love to see done first, however I'm not asking anybody to do this, so if you're kind enough to, and want to - you pick any one you like of the lot.
Thanks dudes

2008
- TVR Orthrus bit.ly/HCdLis
Design for a new TVR. Front and back are fine - but side view needs reworking: everything from the end of the door backwards looks a bit too squished up, needs a more cerbera-like look from the side. Would be nice to see an improved version of this.
- Mazda RX9 bit.ly/HD5hWp
Idea for the next 'RX' car. Generally happy with this one, though have realised I accidentally gave it a fuel filler cap on both sides.
- Audi A9 bit.ly/HA16LT
Top-of-the-range Audi. Looks fine from front and back, though maybe a little too tall from the side - or maybe the wheels are too small.
2009
- Porsche 998 bit.ly/HJVQUR
1990s style sporty Porsche design. Front and back are as imagined, though side looks a bit too warped and curved. Could do with some good judgement to make it look better from this angle.
- Mitsubishi Eclipse bit.ly/IxgAz0
Alternate design for a modern Eclipse. Generally happy, though the rear is too tall in both side and rear views.
- Ford Rhinoceros bit.ly/IimJwQ
Generally happy with design, though does look awfully boxy and square from the side.
- Rolls Royce Flying Phantom bit.ly/I5AS13
Just for fun, a flying Rolls. No changes needed, turned out right first time.
- Flying Porsche bit.ly/IWag0k
Same thing, just a porsche. Side air intake may want improving, rear needing a bit more shading to show the shape seen from above.
2010
- Audi Batmobile bit.ly/Iwtrz7
'If Audi made the batmobile'. Happy with the design, there's just a lack of various angles. Imagine the rear being somewhat similar to the Tim Burton batmobile.
- Audi RT bit.ly/HE7rTe
Idea for an Audi V8 muscle car. Generally happy, could do with some good judgement on minor adjustments.
- Bugatti 570 bit.ly/HNf1Je
Idea for a modern Bugatti, but keeping the retro design, à la Morgan EvaGT. Happy with the design, no changes desired, would love to see a model of this.
- Implacable
bit.ly/IimVMA1930s car design. No changes needed.
- Vanguard bit.ly/HCe90w
1930s car design. No changes needed.
- Avenger bit.ly/HA1ytu
1930s car design. No changes needed.
2011
- Black Car bit.ly/Hx8OSj
1930s car design. Based on a lego model I made. The lego model looked awesome, but somehow it just looks wrong on paper. Could probably look good if the proportions (especially width) were made more realistic.
- TVR Basilisk bit.ly/HA1Oc2
modern TVR design. Pretty much happy with the design, no changes needed I think. Would be interesting to see a model of this.
- Bentley Arnage II bit.ly/HA1OZn
Modern-retro design for a far more conservative new Bentley, that actually looks like a Bentley. Front and back are good, side may want a little good judgement tending to everything behind the windows (suposed to be a bit like the modern Rolls from the side)
2012
- TVR Hydra bit.ly/I5BPGJ
new TVR design. Probably my favourite made-up car design yet, completely happy with design, no changes desired, would love to see a 3D model of this.
- Auburn speeder bit.ly/IJJmfg
Just for fun futuristic flying Auburn speedster. Happy with design, no changes needed.
- Mercedes SLC600
1990s styled Mercedes sports car. Happy with design from all angles, no changes needed. Would be interesting to see a model of.
- Jaguar XJ200 bit.ly/Ixi5gQ
1990s styled Jaguar sports car. Happy with design from all angles, would be nice to see this one modelled.
- Cadillac Astronomer bit.ly/HCetMX
1950s styled Cadillac, happy with design from all angles. Would be interesting to see a model of this one.
- Bugatti 102 bit.ly/HA24rt bit.ly/HtQdaS
1950s style 'revival' Bugatti design. Which has been made into a superb model by
marian87.deviantart.com/ , which I totally approve of and which kinda got me going on this idea...
