To do a good Porsche painting, Ferrari painting or whatever you going to paint, it is very important to not to be in a rush while doing it. I can guarantee you that 99% of all those great car paintings you have seen, has taken lots and lots of time to do, not just 30 minutes! And that is why it is so important that you do not just draw a little bit and then give up because it does not look like what a professional would paint a car.
I often start by looking at the outward lines of the car and then just try to get them on the paper, and I don’t start shading and all that until I’m fully satisfied with the general proportions of the car. And one thing I always do it to not draw the wheels until I’m happy with the other proportions of the car, because the wheels are always so hard to get right and if they look bad, then they will make your whole car painting look bad. So starting out, just look at the car you want to paint for a while, and then start drawings some thin lines of the outward of that car. And then just go ahead and add a few details here and there.
When you feel you have most of the car outlined well on your drawing, start to work on the shading. One hint here is to start at the left upper corner if you’re right handed and move slowly to the center area, because that will help you not to get the whole drawing messy with your arm over the painting.
When you feel the drawing is done, put it away for a while and then get back to it, perhaps the next day or so. Doing this will probably make you realize a few things on the painting that you can improve, that you would not otherwise have seen.
And remember; you don’t need tons of talent to make a car painting look great because patience is everything!
