Ok, so in the rules, it is mentioned to have at least two different parts to the car entered, a 3/4 view, rear view, and/or an interior view. There were some amazing beauts that I might have voted for, but I did not (al entries were nice, by the way; I only voted for the people who obeyed the rule). I will not mention who, but entries without a second part should be disqualified, ro only one view should be allowed. Time after time, people only have one view, and get votes. It's not right. If you don't have the time to follow the rules, don't enter at all.

I agree. Two views means you've thought about your design idea enough to figure out how it works in the front and the back. Designing a beautiful front in isolation is only half the story. How does it all work together? I think its important.

dart, that's interesting. Solstice, yes, but I also see some '73 LeMans influences.

Could be. Pontiac's got strong genes. Its hard to change much and still look like a Pontiac.

A little Solstice influence

I think any use of Photoshop for a sketch competition should be banned. Whether Photoshop is used to clarify a hand-drawn entry or generate a line drawing embellished with shading tools, it should not be allowed. Either its apen or pencil to paper competition or its not. Can we have some clarification on the rules?

Here's a GMC entry playing off the styling cues for the Acadia (headlights) with some embellishments.

A quick Buick Wildcat

How about one for Hummer? The "Hx" with dual lifting windshield entry system.

Aren't all the entries supposed to show a minimum of 2 views?

Im sorry to say but I dont like that. Your Oldmobile is much more better and isnt ugly. The front headlights and grille set up is nice but the rest of the car ruins it. It looks too blown up or bloated.

Thanks for the feedback AR. I think the Olds might be better but I spent more time on it than I did on the Pontiac. Just wanted to explore some diagonal lines running down the back combined with the traditional Pontiac coke bottle side.

How about a Pontiac G car like the Nissan Z? Pontiac G375 or something like that.

I liked the old Cutlass of the seventies. Why not bring it back as a supercar available at all divisions. I used some of the Olds styling cues from that era: the twin rectangle grills, the vertical tail lights and added a 2006 style kick-up diagonal line to make it current.
