What in the ?? Those rear ends look like Skylines. Thats some nice rendering, but they should've made them less ricey (altho im sure the C6-R will have some kinda of rear end setup along those lines, but of course...they need it!) The front end isnt too horrible, but to me there's more that can be done.

What program are you using to do all this? I use SketchUp for housing projects @ school, but ive never seen any graphic modeler do that.

And not knockin your work, its by far amazing, but what about working around a diff front end? Maybe do some diff kits, and see how they'd look? That GS pic is one of the best ones ive seen so far tho.

3DS Max 6. The Raven (top pictures) wasn't too extreme for vette owners (to my suprise) so I thought I'd take it a step further. I'll be creating a variety.

Thanks. That's why the wing(s) isn't in all pictures.

3DS Max 6.

I just dont think it does the front end justice. Its supposed to be aerodynamic yet sexy. That to me is just....blah.

I know not everyone feels the same way, and im not tryin to be a dick and i hope you dont take it that way, but thats just how i see it. The concept pic is more along the lines i'd like. All in all, its amazing work. Some people would have a hard time distinguishing between the real thing, and those pics.

Top of the front looks like a 63 Vette, if one cuts the bottom part off.
