Howdy folks,
First time posting to the AH section but post over in the TR, Jaguar, and MG forums from time to time. I illustrate cars and, in particular, British sports cars from the 50s, 60s and 70s and have recently embarked on an illustration of the 100S and 100M Healeys. Thought I would share my progress as well as ask for any comments or observations.
Hope you enjoy the show.
Regards,

- Sketch 1 - I've roughed in the body contours, established the wheel base, penciled in parts of the frame and added a few other bits that will help correctly locate other items
- Sketch 2 - Steering wheel and column added, set in place, rear springs and prop shaft penned in, a bit more of the frame drawn
- Sketch 3 - Body counters finished up, cowl and bonnet added, fuel filler, boot hinge, tag lamp and front/rear turn lamps added
- Sketch 4 - Fuel tank is in, straps and top of wheel added to spare, door card, dash, mirrors, and rear brakes added along with the front frame outlines and a number of other bits an pieces.
- Sketch 5 - A "test" motor and gearbox (in this case, a B series from my MG drawings)—please I know it's sacrileg) dropped in so I can check the relative position of some of the components that will fill the forward bulkhead—fuse panel, regulator, fluid reservoir, etc. I know it's sacrilege but I needed something until I get to drawing the 100S power train.
Hope you enjoy the show.
