I think it's time for em to do a Flaming Chicken! :D



And yes, it WILL be retro!

[mustang84]

Mercury Cougar time! I'm in.

[gt1750]

I'm in, but I can't decide between Firebird, Camaro and GTO... :D

[NOS2006]

Can our sketch be based on already shown ideas? Such as something seen in a magazine, but not actually KNOWN to be going into production?

[Northstar]

If you can't decide, you can do more than one entry if you want, although if you take a long time on your entries like gt1750 you might not have time to do two.

Sure. As long as you're not totally copying it I think that'd be fine.

[NOS2006]

Cool, sounds good. I might be able to whip something up.

[Cory Wolfe]

How about a Firebird from me? Sound good? :D

Does that mean you DO like Pontiacs? :huh: :blink:

[olds442]

sound cool. I might enter..my sketches suck compared to many entrys. I think im good though for my age, 14. I already have a few cars picked out, I just can decide.

[Northstar]

I'm not sure if at made this clear before, but the deadline is 12:01 AM EST on Sunday, September 18th. Meaning Saturday night is basically the deadline.

[Flybrian]

I'm gonna do a Hyundai Tiburon...aww yeah! j/k

[gt1750]

I've decided - retro Firebird based on the '68. I have sketched front, rear and interior views. There's nothing said about CGI rendering, so I started coloring them in Photoshop. This is what I've done until now:

Sketches (1600x1200):

Front 3/4
Rear 3/4
Interior

Rendered:




The rest will be done in a week or two.

[Cory Wolfe]

Damnit... I just lost. :P

I can't....


Lift up....



My jaw.....

Sweet work man!

[Northstar]

That looks really good gt1750! Nice job.

[NOS2006]

Amazing entry, gt, but not a Muscle Car to me... However, I can't lie. You do BEAUTIFUL interiors.. :o Edited August 25, 2005 by NOS2006

[ocnblu]

gt1750, you've brought to light the F-car we've been asking for... with a true 2+2 coupe body, and an overall look that is chameleon-like... from jaunty 6 cylinder runabout, to firebreathing Trans Am (I feel the word "Formula" when looking at your rendering), this car is a canvas, like the original. Much kudos to you, sir.

[Turbojett]

GOD that's beautiful. I love the way you did the rear, and the interior is just AMAZING. Edited August 27, 2005 by Turbojett

[pow]

Nice... I love the Alfa Romeo-ness of it all.

[BlkHhr104]

I dunno if i can get it done or not, or get it on my computer with the way my scanner is working, but im going to try the Pontiac Firebird

[VenSeattle]

Nice... I love the Alfa Romeo-ness of it all.

[post="4949"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post]

I thought Alfa too... looks great!

[prototype66]

you are a highly skilled individual,keep op the great work!! B)

[Flybrian]

That is the best interpretation of a signature Pontiac fascia I have ever seen!

[Guest YellowJacket894]

Awesome! I think I'm entering either one of the following: -Chevy Chevelle SS -Chevy Camaro -Pontiac Firebird -GMC Typhoon/Syclone -Pontiac GTO

[T-O-X-I-C]

30 min worth of brainstorming, do you guys think its worth me finishing up in this contest, cus this is my first design really from scratch.

[Northstar]

It looks pretty good so far TOXIC. I'd finish it up.

[NOS2006]

Can it be a brand new muscle car that's never been produced before? ie new name, design, everything?

[fuel_sipping]

I would assume so, it never said.. I would say if it looks like a muscle car, sure. BTW: Northstar: ur sig says miata.. mx5 would be more suitable...when u say miati i think of the late 80s with the petty looks. mx5 is a more suitable (yet maybe less of a competitor) then the sky/solstice. Edited August 31, 2005 by fuel_sipping

[turbo200]

toxic, i don't know what it looks like, but you should finish it. gt, that is real nice, I like the shape of it, but maybe it could be a bit more aggressive, maybe pointier? It looks awesome already though.

[sciguy_0504]

Looks like it has a little bit of modern Charger influence.

[Northstar]

Yeah, you can make up a name if you want NOS.

[Guest YellowJacket894]

What is that supposed to be TOXIC? A Nova? And I can enter a new GMC Syclone, right?

[Northstar]

I guess anything you consider a muscle car, you can enter. I'm not sure how many people consider the Cyclone a muscle car, but if you do, go right ahead. :)

[capriceman]

dear OLDS422,

Your sig is intresting a 87' Buick Regal Grand National GNX with Olds422 (i would of thought a Oldsmobile might of been there) But that is One kick @ss pic where did you get it?

Your drawings look sweet.

If only i could draw (im lucky if my stick figures look good).



How come no one brings back AMC AMX. :P



I think it should be the next chop idea its a good car!

[NOS2006]

You amaze me. :blink:

[Satty]

You amaze me. :blink:

MS paint rules! Man, I've got to have some fun around here and the lounge is pretty dead, so I'm goofing off in the comp section.

[NOS2006]

Using some Viper cues in back and giving Dodge a whole new face... it's the RWD Dodge Ecstasy.

[99camaroSS]

LMAO Dodge Ecstasy, i think Satty should name his drawing the chevy CW (crack wagon) :lol:

[99camaroSS]

I forgot to say that it looks good NOS

[capriceman]

Looks a little firepowerish though

Chysler Firepower

But it is one sweet car i would buy it.

(but i think satty won my vote)

[post="8035"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post]

I got this picture off Gran turismo 4.

[NOS2006]

Yeah, it does have a Firepower-ish look to the rear, doesn't it? I didn't even think of that..

[Sixty8panther]

Well it's no surprise that GT1750's entry has some Alfa in it... think about his username. I love that entry but i have to say it's not agressive enough for a Musclecar. The desing is beutiful as a spotr coupe but it has all the agresiveness of a '95 Honda Prelude. Just put a bit of an eyebrow on the headlights and you're good to go. The interior is your nicest yet. o be honest I'm not a huge fan of some of your other interiors. They;re very 'uninviting' to me but this one is AWSOME! B) Satty: Are you on the "Bring back skinny steering wheels" commite.? :P

[Guest YellowJacket894]

No, no, no, NOS. Everything about that is just wrong. The only thing that really works is the ass of the car. (It looks pretty good.) Everything else is just... No. Edited September 4, 2005 by anorexorcist

[Turbojett]

Can it be something you've already done in the past that everyone's seen? if so, I'm ready.

[Northstar]

If you want to pick between stuff you've already done that would probably be acceptable.

[Guest YellowJacket894]

I started my own competition, so, I'm out. :) By the way, I hope my own competition was okay. (I know NOS2006 or someone did their own over at the old forums, so I really don't see why not.)
