Rendering a car can be a little intimidating but it can actually be a piece of cake if you follow particular processes. However, understanding the processes and knowing what they mean takes some understanding and work. This quick video tutorial will illustrate the basic steps in rendering a side view of a sports car similar to that of an Audi A5 (ahhh….my dream car…along with a Porsche, Ferrari, Aston Martin……etc..)
Future tutorials will break these basics down into understanding simple forms and how to interpret their shapes rendering them as reflective or matte surfaces. Enjoy and please comment!
Thank you for your helps..

Hi guys just wanted to say that this is a great design site, finally there is a site that goes through the process of car design step by step. (I have been looking for a site like this one for ages with no real success till now) I can finally build my design foundations with the information you’re dispensing. Thank you very much.
P.S
I would love to see information about.
Ideation (how do you come up with your car designs)
Line quality, how do you get flowing line? (I use chicken scratching too much)
Shading and rendering
Sketching in perspective and drawing prefect wheels. (What method do you use?)
Once again thank you.
Michael,
First of all, thanks for the positive feedback. It’s great to see you take some initiative to learn about drawing cars and I’m glad you like the site. You are hitting on all the points I intend to cover. I am working on several tutorials that will help address some of the issues you are looking to improve upon. It’s just going to take time to get it up….so I appreciate your patience.
Please feel free to send your work. I would be happy to post up students work and try to give you some tips to help you along. Keep on drawing and keep that drive alive!

Sorry about that, I didn’t mean to rush you. Take all the time need. Looking forward to the new videos. I need to practice more and more before I attempt to send anything in. As I said I’m still at the chicken scratching faze myself.
And o yes I’m an Audi man myself, now I don’t drive one but I love their proportions, stance and style too.
No worries Mike! It’s all good. As far as sending in chicken scratches, there’s nothing wrong with that. I am totally cool with it. We are all here to learn and improve on what we know or don’t know (myself included). This site is meant to be positive and encourage individuals to reach their unrealized potential. So seriously, submit without any reservations.
Cheers!

Arvind,
really liked this tutorial. was trying to find a site that shows how to use the prismacolor markers on car renderings. This one was very helpful.
I am an amateur artist with a keen interest for drawing cars. Still got a long way to go, and would really appreciate if I can get some guidance from folks like you.
Please let me know if we can communicate on this topic
