I cannot believe how much drawing everyday has improved my confidence in drawing! I actually think I have drawn more over break then I ever have during school. All of these drawings are successful because I started with BIG shapes! Its like trying to make a pizza slice by slice, it might taste alright but you wont get a consistently good slice, start with the bigger idea!
Anyways, here are two cars a buggy thing inspired by the way cars sometimes look in manga and a hover Audi that looks a little too retro for me. The spaceship is inspired by Axelay for the SNES and this idea I had for a bubble cockpit. It helped so much to try and think of the whole gesture of the spaceship rather than trying to perfect the cockpit design like I was at first. So I drew a couple little spaceships off to the side using just shapes; I knew I wanted the boosters to go underneath so it felt like i was on top of them, and a long spirey fuselage. With the whole thing seeming pretty stable i had an easier time working on the details!
