Happy Voting!

entry 4

hmm....
what's the criteria for the judging?
was it supposed to be a modern version of 60s/70s design or completely in the style of those decades?

It was both. You could design your own 60's/70's supercar or update an older design.

I'm really suprised that only 5 people entered. Just goes to show who's really up for a challenge I guess.

I think if you offer up a prize of some kind for the winner on the next one, people will be more inclined to come through. That has worked on other website forums in the past.

i was going to but work load was too great last week; too many deadlines to do this properly. I'll post up what I did when I finish it.

Anyway.
Back to the voting.
For the best resolved design (although the front doesn't quite work for me)
I have to give it to number 3.

There is a prize!

the winner gets to choose the next contest, which i will post up.

Not much of a prize, but the next person gets to offer up a prize if they wish.

That sounds fair.

wow, I love the plymouth!! where can i buy it?;)

I also was going to enter, but i had an intro camp previous week and I started university this week..so it were two busy weeks..

:banghead: damn could draw anything because of school, sucks.

Entry 3 is impressive man I love it I think that is the winer

exactly :)

good idea, but i do not have any money, so even a small prize, such as an eraser would be impossible for me. but whoever wins and chooses the next criteria for the compo (which they will PM to me) gets to choose an additional prize.

I hope im not 2 late to vote. And i was gonna enter 2 but my Truck caught on fire FridaY night. been dealing with that. But i choose #3. Awesome. every1 kicked ass.

Well, there's something you don't hear everyday. It's kinda like saying, "My dog ate my homework!"

Just messing with you.

What caused the fire?

friction?

Nice.

What caused the fire?
I recently replaced the valve cover seals. I used a highly flamable cleaner to clean my engine while i had it apart. Apparently I didnt clean it all off. Cause on the way home from The Lake Friday night I was a Ball of Thick smoke traveling at 80mph. I was gonna try n make it home. Had like 10miles to go too. But I stopped. It was a decent size flame under the hood. I freakin tried to blow it out. But I smoothered it with a Hoodie. Almost no damage. Just have to rewire and fix Wire harness. srry 4 the ramble

too bade GB I hope your Truck is ok(Car Lover Feeling)

I dont mean to say anything bad, but just some of my thoughts ( some healthy critisism )...

when you design something like a car, apart from good looking it has to "work"...

i dont understand why the entry 4 isnt leading, i think its the only good and well thought drawing here.

entry 3 just doesnt work...
look at the front wheel, it fits there?
then the front light must be a flat sticker and not an actual light ( otherwise it would touch the wheel... try to continue the ellipse line from the wheel and see where it goes.. doesnt fit ).
rear wheel is all wrong too.
the spoiler is out of perspective, its going the opposite way.
the tyres look like they are made of plastic,
where is the left mirror?
the top and bottom versions of the car are different, look at the side window line and the space behind the rear wheel... just different. etc etc etc

Yes I read that thing above... " you are voting on the best design idea..." .. but there is no "idea" when its all wrong, doesnt fit and doesnt work.

Entry 4 is by far the best, who is the author btw?

If you want to know, I didn't vote for number 4 because to me (and I mean no offence by this) it just looks like a Pantera with a body kit on it.
Remember, this is judged on the design, not who can draw better. As a design contest, 3 is in my view, the only one that does something that properly fits the brief. Put it this way; most of what you is about the actual drawing skill. Of this, as it is not part of the judging criteria, nothing needs to be said. The rest you talk about in the drawing is to do with the packaging of the car and not actually that hard to "fix" without changing the design. I mean, is it a design when you take car and change some features? To me, no. That is not to say that I don't think 3 is not the better drawing.

there is no "design" if it cant be done, those lights dont fit in there, like some other things too. is it a good "design" then?
draw 2 mirrors or dont draw them at all. it just looks all wrong.
I would never vote for a design that was just "drawn" quickly, without thinking at all, and in this case, the Pantera is a lot more interesting, even though it looks like a Pantera with a bodykit, its still different.

I can imagine what the teachers in my uni would say about that "design". :nono:


dont get me wrong please, im really not trying to say anything bad about the person who drew or anything, not at all, its all just my opinion.

It was a big surprise to see only 1 person ( until now ) apart from me to vote for pantera.

I think someone is a sore loser.

Could just be what kind of design school you went to. True, the drawing isn't fully resolved as I had said; the front doesn't work for me but I can see the idea behind it and to me, that idea fits the brief whereas the other doesn't.
What would your tutors say if you took car, put a few vents on it, moved a line or two and called it a new design?

I voted for the winner.

My apology:

#1 looks quite cool but doesn't have the wow effect like #3 has
#2 looks a bit toony
#3 looks awesome
#4 shows great rendering skills, but designwise it's poor
#5 lacks color or shading, not good for a presentation

Please don't be offended, it's just positive and honest criticism.

Also I'd like to join the next competition as well as I would have liked to join this one, but unfortunately I haven't found the time to work out and even render a design.

SieG, thanks for your C&C on my drawing. I'm glad that you had taken the time out of your life to try your hardest to bash it straight back to the stoneage. What about everyone else that entered? I don't see you bum rushing them.

However, people vote for what they like. It doesn't matter if the design actually works. IT'S A DRAWING! Nowhere in the description did it specify that the design had to actually work, it's just a concept and a rough one at that. I admit, I am a little rusty in the concept department but hey, it works for some people maybe not you but for others. To be perfectly honest, yes, I changed things at the last minute. The car on the top was where I started and the front of the car changed 2 or 3 times before I came to what you see. Now, maybe if I was an actual auto designer, it would've come out a little better, but I don't devote ALL of my time to redesigning the automobile.

You draw purely from life as far as the samples on your website go. You see things from a realistic point of view only. I see plenty of ability but no creativity there. As with the Pantera.

relax :lol:

I'll relax when you quit pushing your opinion on everyone.:smooch:

Number 3 is kool that is the good design and number 4 is just ...well just a drawing

are n-e of these drawings actually n-e thing 2 fight over? Hey who ever drew #3 u win. congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
pick the next comp so we can GE T on with it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! btw im hammered an i havnt started 1 fight 2night. lol

Hey GB, not so fast with naming the winner! I'm positive I can pull this one out! Ha, Just kidding.

I could sit here and defend my Pantera til I'm blue in the face, but what difference would that make? The Superbird is blowing away everything because of eye appeal. The 'Wow' factor. It doesn't matter that it's based on a 60's classic and not a 'super car'.

Like GB said, lets get over it, and on with the next comp. And to whoever is hosting the next competition, please be specific on the criteria. I think there was some confusion on what the rules were here.

B

Hey nicecar I think number 3 win so we can end voting now

A little unfair don't you think?
You're more or less saying that everyone who voted for that one did so because the drawing is flashy and hence eye catching and not because of any design merit that it might have. "Supercar" is a comparative term and in reality has no definite meaning. Considering that the time period was 60s AND 70s; that stretches from the old curvey front engined Ferrari 250s to the later mid engined wedge cars and everything in that period that stepped beyond the norm.

I do agree about the badly defined "rules" and the vague brief didn't help. That's wht I asked what the judging criteria was before I clicked that button.


Anyway, I've got a little idea.
The next time someone wants to hold a forum comp, PM me and I'll sort out the thread and other related. I can sticky the main thread and organise links and what-not.


DM.

Entry 3 looks really nice and is a nice design based on an older version.
Thumbs up.

OK, First, I want to thank everyone who voted for the Superbird Design. I had this one brewing long before I even signed up on this site. However, for those that don't know about the 1970 Plymouth Superbird, do a little research on that car. You'll find that its racing history is that of a "Super Car". It was the first American production car to break 200 miles per hour. Driven by Richard Petty, Mopar's sole mission with the winged warriors was to go fast. In fact the cars went too fast and sold pourly on the market due to their unorthodox design ques. But anyway, you guys can read all about that on internet.

As far as the competition goes, I want to publically apologize to SeiG for the comments I made yesterday for criticizing my drawing (to what I felt) so harshly. No hard feelings.

That said, I think that I should not be a part of the next drawing competition. This was competition was supposed to be fun, but the harsh critiques on my design made the competition not so fun for me. Sucks. I will gladly watch from the sidelines. There seemed to be too much animosity during this voting session to make it fair for me to come up with the next competition. I'll be back for another competition on a later date but for now, I'm just going to work my technique.

Thanks,
BRIEN ROTH

Ok.
Now for the flip side of the discussion. What he said about your drawing wasn't harsh as it was only things that he saw to be at fault with your drawing. Nothing he said wasn't "true". The thing I pointed out was that those things weren't relevent in a quick design contest thing like this was. Harsh is having a tutor tear down a drawing, rip it up and saying that it's a pile of shit.
