Very observant of you. I only have a side image of the car. I can't find a blueprint of an earlier model. I can find a 1979 all day but I want an early 70's model. So yes, most of it was done is the "side" view. One of these days I'll post a decent model..lol. Next to making most parts out of nurbs how do I stop getting such rigid lines? Thanks for the input by the way.The lines on it are pretty rigid, like it was modeled in a side view only. I remember Acid was doing some work on a car somewhat recently in the wip section, you could take a look at that. The texture on your backdrop is very low resolution, too low for this shot. And I can't really make out what's going on with the lights, they're not placed very practically(or casting shadows). But I wouldn't worry about any of that til the car modeling is done, it's tempting but you might be shooting yourself in the foot otherwise.

You have uncompleted sections which are heavy on geo, try to avoid this, dont worry I made the same errors LOL. Now you have some images to import into Maya it will be a hell of a lot easier. Trying to model with just 1 view is bloody hard. Get plenty of photos from Google as image refs are only good to a certain point.
Good luck with it

As for the renders of your WIPS in colour etc...I used to do that all the time as it was fun! BUT a very wise woman berated me for this and taught me the ways of the WIP. Keep it as I have it in my scene, plain old grey for now. Save out as PNG and you can then whack a black backdrop, though I think you can do this in the environment. This is just a roughy to help you along mate.
