Gearheadfurs are for furries who have an interest in cars, motoring, and automobile engineering. Every two months, they'll be doing a competition give-away, where people can request a car, or their own car, to be drawn, for free. This is the prize of this month's give-away, as won by Baroncoon, and by Metal Head Rush.
It's a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda 440+6.

Thanks.
I do think they look much more aggressive and less vacant-stare if the lights are hidden, either completely or just partially. Any more of a frontal angle on this picture, and you'd be able to see the right headlight, but I kept it totally hidden because I just prefer it that way.
I'll let you into a secret. Cars are piss-easy to do.
Anthros change shape, expression, build, etc. They have hair which falls about with gravity, complicated skeletal structures covered by equally complicated musculature, which change shape with and against each other, depending on pose, action, velocity, etc. If two arms are facing the same way, then they have the same perspective. If they're at different angles or different positions, you have to think about two different perspectives, which have to be relative to one another. Then there's legs, arms, neck, and so on. It's a nightmare.
With a car, it's all very simple. They don't have expressions, they don't particularly change shape, they have just a basic structure, and a single set of details. There's only one set of proportion/perspective to be dealt with, and one set of details and features, which do not change, or change shape.
Plus, I can't really draw for myself. I don't have my own style. I just borrow other artists' - you have a style emerging, and I like it. Your drawings are great. You just need some confidence cookies.
