I didn't want it to look like almost every other car though. The idea was to make the car look like it was sculpted by the air it moves through. I felt a fender lip around the wheels, a body line running the length of the side, or even a surround for a license plate would draw attention away from the shape I created. I agree from pictures the car seems a little low on detail, but if you were to see the car in reality I believe you might change your opinion. It may sound rediculous but I can take this image in my head and spin around. The profile shot is not the same as the last two pictures, as you can see the flare running along the side of the car is different, and the rear end has less mass to it. I made some changes to the design when I realised the car had a tiny ass.

BTW I didn't show you because you're never online when I am!

Everybody, thanks for the props. General opinion seems to be the front end and sides are nice, and the rear should have a bag over it. Hate is better than indifference in my book though, it makes you look again.

As long as you can defend yourself... that is all that matters when being a designer.

Good luck with everything. Who knows this might result in you entering the world of automotive design, because you know influential people are going to be looking at this.
