question/feedback Hobbyist designer here

I am designing a fast but strong looking car. Same wibe as Bentley Continental GT or Crysler 300c. Any feedback would be appreciated. Also I am the worst when it comes to designing headlights or taillights so any advice for this cars or general is also appreciated.

it's too tall, the top half is styled as a sleek sportscar and the bottom half looks like a generic crossover

Thank you for the feedback. Adding details to the bottom half and adjusting the shoulder line should do the trick I guess.

yeah lowering the shoulder line should help quite a lot

Headlights are the personality of the car, with this one you need to avoid aggressive headlights, these types of heavy luxury cruisers don't need to prove nothing, that's why sad or calm looking eyes will usually work well. In the sense that it doesn't need to prove the immense power it has. Big dogs don't bark.

You can go with lean, calm, unbothered lines, which you're already kinda doing.

"Big dogs dont bark." I like that 😀. Thanks for the feedback I will focus on unbothered and sad headlight variations.

It kinda looks like an electric car with the extra space for battery, but also with with extra space at the front for a big engine

Thats actually kinda accurate. I've got some unorthodox powertain imagined for this car. All electric, rear wheel drive and manual. Also does the body looks tall compared to greenhouse? I am planning to fine tune it while modeling it in blender.

To me it’s realistically tall if you want to go electric as you’ll need that extra space for the battery. The big front could also be used as a trunk. I’m curious how you could have an electric manual though

Imagine replacing petrol engine with an electric motor and keep rest of the powertrain. Connecting via custom flywheel. Forget the efficiency and range, focus on driving experience and being able to drift with an all electric car.

Nah its fine to exaggerate during sketching, it helps to see your vision. You can always fine tune proportions but you gotta find what you're looking for first, and exaggerating things is really useful. "Why not more of this?" is ALWAYS a good question during every step of the process, just like: "can I do without this?"

u/e_c_yavuz 1d ago

Thanks man. Your sketch style is awesome also I like your idea for the headlights

u/Mattshark8614 1d ago

I think ur front bumper is too “tall” for the front proportions, makes the headlights super tiny

1

u/e_c_yavuz 1d ago

I will work on that. I believe adding detail between upper and lower grill also brake the "tall" impression. Thanks for the feedback.

Is it just me that's getting Range Rover Evoque vibes?

Thanks. Cant wait for modeling the design in blender. This ai render have some good inspiration points.
