Oh well. lol

Actually, I really enjoy this, but I managed to finally fall asleep under my own will last night, though, and had to take advantage of it.

Been really stressed about some things lately, and actually had to drink myself to sleep once this week.

Just did that last night. Not intentionally, but it worked out in my favor. 1 large pitcher of Woodchuck draft cider does a body good! 8)

Haha. Well mine was more like a 5-shot pull of Whiskey... then I got in bed and waited. Decided my music was too loud about half an hour later, and when I tried to get up to turn it off, I fell flat on my face and ended up crawling.

Haha. It was a pleasant surprise, but I definitely slept well.

Nice! Not a whiskey kinda guy. Rum is my poison of choice. To each his own.

I like a bit of rum here and there, despite the fact that I can't tell 151 has more alcohol content than whiskey until I'm puking all over the place. :P

It's hard to drink rum like I do whiskey. Haha.

Alright. I'm working on this now!

A little progress. Took a LONG time to get the logo and the "SUBARU" correct. I think it's fine now.

I left the transparent original out of this one to make the lines easier to see. The real image is much larger, but I've been downsizing it until it's completely finished.

I'm going to shade the tail section right now and then get on to the side windows.

That is SICK!!!!!!!!!! I enjoy graphic design, but I haven't gotten into line art drawing. Great job!

It'd make a SWEET minimalistic desktop wallpaper (1280x1024):

Matt, I bow down to you and your patience! Excellent job! Now we need that placed on a t-shirt for all to wear.

Dumb question, but do you feel up to doing the front of the car as well? :mrgreen:

Well, I first want to finish the wagon I started, and then I'm going to do one with some guy's Lancer, and THEN I have another BG5 to do... So I might do a front shot, but it'll be a while. :P

Sounds like you might just have a little potential for some side cash here.
That BC looks sweet, BTW. Now how 'bout a BJ... for us wagon lovers? :-D

That's what I said!

Very nice job. It looks really good. Loving the wallpaper, I just gotta tweak the whiteness around the car.

I would assume it's through Photoshop or Corel.

I could do that if I had a photo from a similar angle.

Definitely used Photoshop. I don't know what kind of features other free software has, but as far as I'm concerned, there's only one tool that is useful for this, and it's the pen tool in Photoshop or Illustrator.
