They are good but maybe you are cheating a little bit by tracing over real pictures? I will add I think the colouring needs more work, the blacks aren't black enough & the body colour is lacking, they need more depth of colour to add vibrancy to the pics. However the 288gto picture is fantastic, its the missing details (such as the blank bonnet area) that make it stand out. I'd buy that (prefer a Fiat 8V Zagato if you're doing commissions...)

no tracing at all. I use PS to map the dims of the car on the paper.
i use photoshop to age photos, i print them and age them in other ways - its time consuming yet good fun to do.
The diff pics were to show different techniques. Diff styles smile
ive done some sketches before which would look like a mass of scribbles but someone liked that. so..everyone likes diff styles I guess.
