Default Mid engine Corvette Full Render



Hey guys sorry it took my a while to get this car sketched and drawn. But here she is, I’m hoping I got as close to the real deal as possible lol. Once again it’s not the greatest Render due to me using a paint app on my iPhone. Please enjoy and feel free to like or comment! Thanks!

The proportions of the sketch look FE, not ME.

The hood is a bit long. The attachment points on the headlights to the front quarter panels is a bit different. The curve on the door vent is wrong. Here it is more of a C, the real one is more of an A. The wheel may still change, but that is not the complete wheel. The emblem will be updated and should be encircled much like a C4. Hood vent is missing. And hood looks a bit long in this render. Headlight general shape is close but the design will be a bit updated.

Look at what firstvettesoon has done in his latest renders and model a lot from that.

I see the windshield on the driver's side is taller than on the passenger's side. Is that to allow more room for a helmet?

You guys are mean.

I hope some designer at GM is reading all this stuff here and has zeroed in on my comments and included photos. I'm not liking anything put up here at all.

I get the logic of thinking that it's going to be nothing more than a C7 with alterations but what a disappointment that would be. Whatever they come out with will set the direction for the next 5 to 10 years at least.

Any design department that thinks this looks good should be fired on the spot.

I'd take it over a Ford or a Ram any day.
