Looking good so far. I think I might do a car myself whenever I can use maya again which should be sometime soon.

Yea, I agree the door has too much lump in its humps lol.

I wouldn't redo the whole thing though. I'm sure you could scale the vertices in front view to make them harder.

Lol I marked in the lights (can you tell)? But, here is the model. I think I reduced the amount of lumpiness. By a whole ton. I swear, if I see more lumps in da hump, I will do something... gah!:headbang: :headbang:

I've got to say the best bits are the Logo, wheel and lights user added image

Seriously . . . Great progress so far and very clean too which should make it easier to tweak.

Cheers
