Still really hard to imitate "chrome" paint without actually seeing it in person, but the last one looks good in my eyes.

It's hard to do the originals justice; unless of course you have one . . .

Thanks, Chrome is a hard one to Imitate! Here is a gold (Non Motion) New Camaro I did. Gold Finger car.

I like that too. I'm sure the hood is part of the appeal for me. The grille area looks a little too Audish for me. I would like to see that more in keeping with the 69 influence. All else is cool for me.

Thanks for your comments, I did one in green that looks great. And with the grill, I was going for a split bumper style. I do see what you mean though.

Please don't take this the wrong way, I think your work is very nice but, my problem with what you've shown is that the cars look like charicatures of a Camaro. The details appear out of proportion for the car itself; the scoop, the wheels, the spoiler; etc. look too big for the body of the car.
I feel the same way about the manufacturers offerings; there's no overhang and the cars have such tall, flat sides that they almost look like something being viewed in a fun house mirror.

I think your designs would look much better if you toned down some of the add ons and made the car blend more; make these items appear like they belong instead of afterthoughts.

They are just concepts, made for visual impact. Thanks for you opinions though.

Understood and I didn't mean to come off as a d#$k just making an observation; trust me I know I couldn't even come close to doing what you do.

Your cool Dave! The designs I'm showing are older ones. So my more recent ones have progressed to become more realistic proportionally.
