Ford Cortina Mk6 GT

[garethgeezer]

New project - Mk6 Cortina Cortinas were a UK Ford car built between the 1960's and 1980's, most were four-door saloons/sedans but the GT versions and also the basic models used a 2-door body. The Cortina got replaced by the Sierra which got replaced by the Mondeo. I started this by doing some sketches, made blueprints etc. I'm trying to create a sort of modern sports saloon, with a hint of the old car in there. Hope you like it!

I like it man, real fresh

lovely! you have definately captured the character of the old cortina whilst bringing it up to date with modern styling. very cool!

very interesting car you choice , love the back, but i think, that the front is too masive
btw: nice modelling, very clean

Really nice. I just think you should make front longer a lower a window line. It'll make more agressive and not so massive

Done a bit more now, so here's some new renders.

i only think the lights of your concept drawing where nicer but good work

Yeah, I thought that also

[garethgeezer]

Thanks for the comments guys. I guess not everybody will like it, but that's cool with me Here's some more rough renders.

Pretty cool car overall , even thogh it loks a little like a caricature of a car, due to the very bulgy front fenders. But maybe the fov is deceiving a bit, they look less massive (=better) from the back. But, as you pointed out, it's all just a matter of taste.

Started on doing some decent renders (well, decent for me anyway!). I'm still working on the materials & render settings. The interior to needs to be added too, but I thought I'd post these images anyway.

It´s cool, i like your idea i dont like your frontlights, but rest of the car looks good!

[scoobyboy]

Hubba Hubba!! 8o 8o

Added a basic interior now. I think I'll leave it as it is as I've done what I wanted to do, which was to not only model a car but also design it from scratch. Thanks for all the C&C. I'll stick some other views on the 'rendering' pages and then go look for a new project :mrgreen:
