    cool concept. don't take this badly, but i think you might want to take a little rework of the rear. the perspective has a few lines that don't fall away realistically, and the far exhaust tip would be of diminished size/angle from this view.

    do you have the original photo handy?

    Interesting...much better than the real Marauder! I like the side vent, would enjoy seeing the front of the car.

    It looks like a Cadillac Crossfire.

    Looks real good. I like the vents but the tail lights could be a little larger. Do you have a rendering of the front. That looks like it might be interesting.

    I agree about the tail lights being too small. And the rear wheel. And some perspective stuff. But that's still very cool. And I like the side vent as-is too.

    THX, ...yeah I need to fix the rear a bit and perhaps make the tailights a bit different, and I am doing a front view as well.

    ...& 2b2, sure once I finish the total F&R pictures I will do that for you.

    Umm... It's a Lincoln MKS concept with a more pronounced side vent a Lancia-like rear end treatment... What's Mercury about it?

    Re: Mercury Maurader

    I agree with John. I would love to see the front of it. It deserve to have its styling rather than just a more powerful engine of an aging grand marquee skin which it is currently. Well, to me at least. And this looks great. Nice job.


    Also, sign up on my new, Pontiac tribute site, let your voice be heard at:
