no it isnt, it just something I'm doing by myself, to figure out everything myself user added image
I feel I learn better that way.
Im Just contemplating what to do next on it, weather to extrude the bonnet faces across to do the fenders or not. Should be fun.

Few more shots to show off, only tweaking needs to be done on the fender to match up with the bonnet now (I think), then its on to figuring out how to curve it into what is the front bumper of the car.

Pretty neat mate...you have a few triangles in there...try to keep them to a minimum or in hidden areas. The bonnet doesnt quite match?? how does it look when you smooth preview?

Update for everyone ^^
Hope you have/had a good new year so far... As for this escort, Im making all the basic shapes of the roof, rear, doors etc and going to add more res to them one by one. Who knows, might end up being an escort concept..
