Looks like a lot of Packard and Lincoln in its DNA.

A LOT of Packard in the grille, but more mid-'50's Packard than mid-'40's. I really didn't see the Lincoln until you mentioned it, though.

Proportions are definetely closer to real cars and I like the rounded hood. It seems to be another promising series.

I think it's a lot better looking model, too. After I started the original series, I had gone back and relearned some new math, including trigonometry, for another project which I'm now using to improve the shapes of the cars. So far, I've got preliminary work done on three body styles, the fastback sedan, Town Car and ambulance. Eventually, I'll have new versions of all of the previous body styles, but not so many variations of each body style. I'm also purposely designing the new ones to be built in a larger scale.

The first series I did can be downloaded at Jon Leslie's Lower Hudson Valley site, but this series is still in development.

Previews!

Here are a few of the new bodies I'm working on. So far, they're just side-views but once I get the math done, they can progress pretty quickly. You'll notice that they're all pretty different from the first series.
