Sorry for bumping a old thread, but um.. I would like to hear a bit on this design..
I'm not a fan of thick temples on Rx frames, and you'll rarely see something that exaggerated on a prescription frame. As far as glass design, for myself it is always hard to judge what glasses look like in person, even when provided with a good photograph. I used to do draw glasses from time to time, but I haven't designed anything lately. It seems like a neat industry.
I'm actually currently in the process of hunting for a new set of glasses. I've currently got Oakley Off Line 4.0s but they're showing their age and I've had them for 5 years. I'm looking at getting ic! berlin but can't find a retailer with a good enough selection in the GTA.
Check out ic! berlin if you're into ID, they're quite ingenious.

Current, silver face and blue arms:
What I want, ic! berlin gianluca. Screwless hinge and titanium make them featherweight.

Trust me, you would want the lightest thing possible on your face for 16 straight hours. My current ones are on the heavy side, and after trying on a pair of the ic!'s it was like being able to take deep breaths of fresh air after only being able to breath out of a straw for a year. It makes a difference.
I actually just bought them as well.

The ic!s are full frame and 12g I think. IIRC, you had frameless specs.
I really want to be able to draw like "concepty" type cars. Ive been just scribbling all through school for like the past week, i've gone through a pile of about 6 books, 4 top gear magazines, 1 "CAR" magazine, and 1 big fat car encyclopaedia looking for inspiration. >.< I mean i can draw designs from side on view, and im alright with a 3/4 from the rear, but i still cant draw from the back, front, or front 3/4... Any tips?

Err, I guess I'll post this here.
This is a concept car I drew up today, then rendered with photoshop. Just trying to fill up my gallery space. I'm not sure if I should go ahead and complete this, or start a new one with a better view/perspective of the car. I might consider this one as a bit of a test version.
But I do like it! I guess it's inspiration from Deviantart members and Mazda concept cars.

Well, I guess this fits, if not, lemme know. (All of this is for NASCAR 09, I paint the cars and they go on the model)

Yep, I used that tutorial. Probably the best one I've seen on the site so far.
And the sketch layer I can just get rid of any time, so it doesn't bother me at all. Because I didn't get to the 'extreme detailing' part, I lightly added the original sketch so you guys could see where I was heading. 👍
But yes, I've decided to start over... so that was really a test version to get my bearings together.

When I was a kid (around 10 or so) I designed a W configuration engine with drawn (had drawn) diagrams, labels and everything, I at the time never heard of the engine design before. I also designed (drawn out) a whole bunch of other engine designs and features, I used to think of engines a lot. One idea I had I still havent seen it implemented on a engine yet. (probably thought of but never worked )
I wish I could find these drawings now, they'll be around somewhere still.

What site? I personally didn't like that tutorial too much. Why? I don't remember. I used this tutorial as my introduction to photoshop, Designer Techniques, but specifically this one; Emre Husmen - Photoshop Rendering.
