Because I'm such a big fan of bmw, I thought I'd make a bmw e82 model. (Mainly because that's the biggest bmw blueprint on the-blueprints.com).
It turned out ok, it doesn't have all the details in yet and some of the lines are still wrong. Most of them being in the shark fin and the front bumper.
Depending on your reactions I might try to make a render.








the wheels are bonus ^^

I didn't delete them. your url didn't have a space in them.
anyway I removed the space, if you remove the 20 (%20 = space) your image will work too.

edit: thank you lazerus ^^

Thank you
I started modeling about 3 years back with wings3d, then started using blender because wings can't export .x models.
I have the latest stable release of blender, probably not the beta version though. You can do the lights trick if you open the top menu and select openGL then turn on the lights on the left.

here's progress on my second go at it. As you can see it's much more detailed.
I'm really pleased with how the lines on the hood came out.

Nice

You've got some pretty good poly-flow going on there. Very well done.

And it looks like you're running 2.49b. The new beta has a VERY different interface. I do encourage trying it though.
Though I am wondering as to why you seem to have four 3D View windows open. lol

Thanks for the review.
The 3d view's are up, side, front (or back), and 3d. It's useful because, I don't have to switch the camera all the time.
