Gift for my boyfriend. I haven't drawn cars in years as I really prefer drawing free lines over precise ones. This took me about 3+ hours to sketch out the lines in pencil. Then another hour to re-trace those lines with the black pencil crayon to make sure the pencil didn't blend into the colors.

Once that was completed it took me about 2 days to complete the coloring process (6+ hours total). I used navy blue with blending techniques from the purple pencil crayon to give the color a more vibrant appearance.

I may go back and draw in the top of the dash board, rear-view mirror, and the passenger seat but still debating that.

Time: 9-10 Hours
Tools: Pencil, Ruler, Pencil Crayons, Eraser, Sharpener, Time
Reference: 2008 Chevy Malibu - 3 car images, several headlight images

UPDATE: Boyfriend loved it! :D
