Description This is a drawing I did of a Corvette. I decided to throw in a twist and set it on fire. I've been playing with this idea for a while now, and now I finally have enough time to try this. I want to do a sort of "Elements" series, with cars representing different aspects of nature, including fire, water, wind, earth, and maybe some others. This one is going to be fire. I'm planning on coloring this both digitally and traditionally, and posting whichever one turns out best.

Please comment and critique, as this is a work in progress and I'd like as much advice as possible. If you have any ideas for other themes in this project, I would like to hear them as well. Thanks!

*ahem* [link] = color version.
You can come over to my house and see the real thing, which looks a lot better than the online version. And thanks for the comment!

I'd love to see this on somebody's arm. Or back. It would make a gr8 tattoo. The design is just amazazing. <3 Nice work!

Thanks! I might just copy and ink this and submit it as tatoo design! It would be pretty awesome to see my art permanently etched into someone's body! *evil laughter*

Thanks for the advice. I'll probably make th road straighter, though I still want it a bit curved.

yeah, keep the curve, but your angles on the buildings look a little missproportioned with such a sharp bend. it almost gives the illusion of comming over a hill of some sort, perhaps simply work that into the picture? An embankment might work also. I dunno, rambling advice I guess, have fun with that and keep up the good work

What's an embankment? Please go on with the advice. At this point it is especially appreciated. How do you propose I fix the curve problem? And what should I do with the buildings to make them look less misproportioned?

an embankment is much like the big turns in nascar where they are no longer really driving "flat" they are on a sloped curve. Motocross you see alot of them in the tracks, its hard to explain through words alone. If you do an embankment that would probably require more work than the hill idea though... im really at a loss, shake your head around for a few minuts, something should fall out, works for me at least.

I probably won't do an embankment then since that would require redrawing the car to be at a different angle. Thanks for the advice though!
