Auto design study refinement




Narrowing down my design direction, my vehicle will have a silicone composite body structure that wraps into the wheels and flexes when cornering and for suspension travel so it will simplify the usual double wishbone suspension by reducing the overall weight and the number of moving parts, replacing the control arms, shock absorbers and coil springs.

nice...good thinking with the integrated signature :P

interesting concept. is there a reason why the front wheel is larger than the rear? the perspective's a little jacked on the front (the elements sticking out past the wheels are a bit off) and i'm having a hard time reading the surface of the hood. section lines are your friend. also the cutline going through the dlo looks like it needs to be pushed farther away from us, it's flattening the form a bit too much.

The front wheels are larger than the rear ones and the front track is also more narrow than in the rear. At one point this was a 3 wheeler but Sung Paik has me turning it into a car. Thanks for the feedback and now I do see that I have some perspective issues, the cut line lines up with my center line, but I think I'm showing too much of the top of the car for this angle
