Painting cars is like experiencing the car as it was right in front of you. To me painting a car usually gives me more insight of the details on the car that I would otherwise not notice from just looking at a picture.

Is it really so hard to do a nice Ferrari painting or nice Porsche painting for that matter? That is a question I get a lot. My answer is that only patience can make a great drawing. Because if you are not willing to spend many hours just getting the proportions of the sketch right, the shading right or the lights right the result will be not very impressive.

My best advise on how to improve your Ferrari drawings or whatever car is simply to spend more time on them. For example if you are not fully satisfied with the front lights, don't just continue with the drawing and hoping that the lights will get better by some magical touch! No, look at the lights and don't give up on them until you are fully satisfied with them, then move on to the next part of the car drawing.

Another advise is to not have the attitude of completing the painting / sketch tonight, because this will just make you rush the whole car painting and get you frustrated that it is taking longer than you expected.

Instead work an hour here and an hour there and sooner than you think you will have completed a great sketch of that favorite Porsche of yours!
