Bentley Drawing

A drawing I recently completed for a Vintage Bentley garage

Bentley for the City

 For my final second year Uni project I chose to design a Bentley, aimed at urban use, based on the platform of the VW Polo. The main challenge was to make sure the quality and exclusivity Bentley has a reputation for, wasn't lost when translating a Bentley onto a smaller package.

The final design I chose is a cab forward, front engine hatchback. The rear window is faster than on most hatchbacks, thanks to the high back, and slightly extended rear overhang. The glasshouse tapers in at the back for a muscular appearance over the rear wheels. The bonnet is short even for a hatchback, to optimise the interior space, and the bonnet is higher than on most cars of this size to increase its visual mass.

Some Car Sketches

Bentley 4 1/2 Litre

 I recently have been drawing some sketches of classic cars. All of these sketches are in graphite pencil on card. I wanted to achieve a slightly looser appearance than most of my other drawings. I wanted to do this to work on creating quicker, but effective drawings.
