Hi there ...

I ran across someone's E30 (photo) the other day, I believe (Steve) is the name ;) ... the pic. (#40 Steve) is located here:

Anyways, I loved it so much that I decided to draw it

... I know I missed tons of details and I screwed the tail lights big time

Anyhow, here is the pic. .... I hope you like it

That's a really good effort. Well done. Capturing the reflections using only pencil is tricky, so hats off to you

I like it a lot very good work

I'm sure Steve will feel quite proud you chose his chariot to sketch

You have skills, great job.

Wow, I'm impressed

How long did it take you sketch it?

Thank you all

I used regular A4 paper (that people use with printers) and a pencil ... I spent between 8 and 10 hours overall !

Best bit about that pic is the way you have captured the glass like finish of the paint work.

Proper job that!

i'd never achieve this art work standard with my sausages and vice like pencil grip.

I guess everyone of us has their things going ... i.e. I couldn't replace a door handle (I'm useless in terms of mechanical work)
