Description
I have a confession to make⦠I'm a sucker for quirky micro cars.While others are welcome to enjoy their sports cars, SUV's, 4x4's or minivans, I like my cars tiny, somewhat underpowered and just a little temperamental.
Recently purchased a 2006 smart fortwo and it amused me that if I applied a logical sequence to the shapes of the cars I have owned over the years, the next one would, in fact, be spherical.
Of course I had to design it and draw up my old carsβ¦.

Fantastic work as always!
I wonder, though β what will the car after your next look like? A tesseract? The spherical equivalent of a tesseract? What *is* the spherical equivalent of a tesseract? A black hole? *BOOM* Mind. Blown...
And just how cool would it be to drive around in a black hole? Take that, traffic jams!

I would have gone with teleportation, but a black hole is just WAAAAAAAY cooler
Cheers man!

Yeah, teleportation would definitely be in my top 2 choices of transportation.

haha, my first car was an old red Daihatsu Cuore. At 70 km/h the trunk would open and waiting at a stoplight was kind of tricky as it would love to simply shut down when I tried to get it into first gear again. Fun times
And you not only can draw people, you're good at drawing cars, too

Now that sounds like a car with personality. Maybe even a personality disorder.
And thanks - I enjoy drawing more 'technical' items (even if they are a bit 'toony' like here) as well - funny now that I look back at it, I actually did better in technical drawing classes in high school than I did in art

Never owned or drove one, but both the original and the more recent versions are really cool... though its probably hard to call the new body shape 'mini'... its so much bigger than the original design.

Oh yeah, cool stuff. For me, I think it was the Star Wars making of books that got me into it.

Omg, I love these designs - can I find the last one on ebay??

Someone will have to design and build one first... but if you see one, let me know
π: 0 β©: 1
I will! Why don't you send them the design so that they can build one? I mean, the hard part is already done

literally made me laugh out loud.

haha, I kinda laugh at those cars, but then this weekend i was trying to park in a neighborhood where I ended up circling six square blocks just to find some creepy little alley to park in and as I walked back to my friend's house I saw this tiny little spot between two cars and was thinking...damnit I should have a smart car haha.

this is no confession, dave...
most of us already knew this
ironically, you pretty much drew my next car too
i shall peremptorally dub it the "PokΓ©car"
(for obvious reasons)
and yes, i know i spelled that big word wrong
π: 0 β©: 1
"PokΓ©car" seems most appropriate - love it!
Mis-spelling big words is entirely forgivable - I like to mix it up a bit and mis-speel smoll wurds too, keeps peepl on ther toes

Killer texture as always. I love how they al have a slight fish eye view to them.

Maybe its time I went to see an optometrist or something
Cheers!

I'll have to let you know if someone ever makes one then
Cheers!

Always happy when people laugh at my cars - which happens often enough when I drive them

Yeah, micro cars are fun, but if you need to take more than one passenger you really need something bigger

With its 2 speed auto and 500cc engine, I dont think it even had a 0-60 listing... small, cramped and slow... but I loved that car, so much fun to drive.

I think every one has had a car like that . I they haven't they just don't know what they are missing.

Like a de-evolution of the automobile.
