Nice work. What program did you use to make that? It could maybe use some a bit of variation in the line thickness, and some smoother curves. You also cheated a bit by leaving in the photo driving light, wheels, and background.
Overall, a excellent first effort.
Tooning definitely seems to be the thing to do lately, so I took the plunge and started my first toon work today as well. I used the tutorial that was posted in
this thread. I spent most of the afternoon and evening learning the ropes by practicing on a picture of my car, and I'm nearly done the lineart. I just need to finish the wheels and light details, and then I'll move on to coloring and background. Here's mine so far:

Same here. I definitely feel your pain about that grill. Glad it's on yours and not mine.

I feel a bit bad continuing this threadjack, but I figured there were enough tooning threads already without me starting another one. Here's a new work-in-progress update on mine. I'm still neglecting the headlights.

Another update. For the people who can churn these out within a few hours, I have nothing but respect. For me, this is bloody time consuming. I've probably got about 15 hours in this so far. If I ever finish, this may well be the first and only tooned car I make.

it's looking really good geeky. it takes a lot of time w/ the pen tool to get really quick with it. you've already put this much time into it, stick with it man, you'll love the results and it'll be a great feeling of accomplishment
. and have fun w/ the wheels and lights, they're usually a pain.
and geeds, maybe you should just go outside and pull the grill of the truck, be hella easier to toon

Ok, ok. I can take a hint. Feel free to take back the thread by updating yours, if you are still plugging away at it.
Oh, and Evan: it's not a truck.

i dunno, the thing at the top of the thread looks a lot like a truck to me, either that or those second gens are a lot bigger than i thought.
My bad. The perspective had me convinced it was depicting his second gen, but you're right -- they would have had to grow quite a bit.
