How to Draw the Details of a Car

Video Transcript

"Our lesson is drawing; more specifically, drawing cars. Even more specifically, we are going to detail them. Don't get out your wash bucket or anything. We are not going to get our hands wet. We are going to bring out the details of the car like going back into our drawing. We are going to start by defining these wheels more. We just had drawn shapes here. So you might have to break out a ruler if you want it to be a design that might call for that but I am going to go for a simple star shape but really I think I should be able to do just by hand; simple five pointed star. No longer do we have a child like scribble but hopefully a more refined and accurate drawing of the sport's hatch. I'll go back to the rear lenses or tail lamp. I'll give them some sort of idea of what is going on; some lines to define that they are actually a lens. I'll come up to the door handle and I am going to refine that more because it was pretty rough before. I'll do the same with the mirror. I'll add some details to the hood; like a windshield wiper and being aware of the view of that is quite different than the way you normally see a windshield wiper; just a little bit of a line, my front turn signal, maybe some body lines, darken up things, my wheel wells or fenders, give them a more refined, defined look, a few more details and there you have it. That's detailing a car for you. It's not enough to get our hands wet."
