Description
Here is what I've been working on for my Fan Art Friday picture.I am no good at cars . . . and yet here I am attempting to draw a car
If any of you don't recognize this little Love Bug I won't hold it against you but I would suggest you look up the movies - The Love Bug, Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo, Herbie Rides Again, and Herbie Goes Bananas. Glorious 70's ridiculousness and hilarity (although, admittedly, The Love Bug was made in 1968 and Herbie Goes Bananas was 1980). My all time fave is Herbie Rides Again (1974), you can't go wrong with a pack of VW's chasing the bad guy
Avoid the newest one, Herbie: Fully Loaded. Dreadful to the extreme. The 1997 Herbie movie is . . .ehhh . . . but it has Bruce Campbell so it's at least more watchable than the Lindsey Lohan one. Thank you Disney for badly rebooting something I loved from my childhood. Again.
Herbie the Love Bug belongs to Disney

I think you did pretty well! I love the sketchiness.

I never watched the whole movies, just parts of them when the movies came to tv. Something my sisters were probably watching. What I recall of the parts I saw it was pretty funny. Looks awesome!

That looks really good. You can definitely tell it's a Bug.

I gotta work on the perspective a bit more before I ink it

I Think you did a fantastic job! I can't draw cars either, but I doubt your claims at seeing this.
I never watched Herbie but I do know about it. ^^ Great job.

I'm not going to tell you how long I stared at pictures of Herbie trying to sketch that . . . I'm still not happy with the roof shape
Watch them! I'm pretty sure you'd like them
I actually got the whole set on DVD through the Disney Rewards system (where you get points for buying movies and stuff) I managed to get all of them for free that way
