Description: In case folks haven't realized, I have been uploading lessons on vintage art and I think it is getting addictive because I just can't stop making more art that is vintage style. Here is my take on a cool drawing tutorial on how to draw a vintage car, step by step. When I think vintage I think pale, washed out colors mixed with old late fifties through sixties style art. This car is based on a car that I recently seen in a vintage car show last week. The car was such a traditional cherry red with spit clean shiny chrome bumpers, tail lights, and mirrors. Since this was one of the best looking cars in the show, I wanted to recreate such a beautiful object in a lesson like this one here. Have fun drawing a vintage car. I will be back with other lessons so stick around.
