Aston Martin V8 Vantage

I'm currently working on this project - unfortunately, there aren't any decent blueprints on the internet so a lot of it is by eye. This is as far as I have got... Only two chamfered edges so far. But the surfaces are nice and clean.

I'm going to produce some really high quality images from this (If I can get the model looking good enough) of the car in great locations.

Feel free to comment, good and bad. As I say, I've just started and a lot is by eye.

Thanks

Tom

Quite a challenging project you've picked up
It is a shame there aren't any accurate BP's of the new Aston Martins..
I'll be watching how this turns out, good luck!

BTW Can't imagine what will the future Astons look like, i mean how can they keep designing more beautiful cars than they already are?

Yeah, it's a bit of a headache at the moment...got a little distortion due to the bp inaccuracies.

Once I overcome that though fingers crossed

Oh, and thanks for the link o.b. nice. Aston Martin really have got something special going in terms of design.

awesome man, one of mmy favourite cars - I think theres some really good pics of the side on seriouswheels.com, there might be front OR you could go and buy a flight from Stansted, and they have this thing for winning a supercar, and theres a V8 Vantage and an F430 there for pics, though they probs changed the cars by now lol
