If you want, the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena CA designs 80% of all cars out on the road. It is THE school to go; designers like Armani and companies like Toyota have gone to ask the students to create concept designer cars. Check out their Transportation Design Gallery to see some of the coolest cars that may make it to production in the far future.

Not only do they do cars, but they also do motorcycles, mass transportation, and the such.

One word of caution: tuition is approx $50K a year...

Art Center is a great place, but once in a while they would also just accept anyone.

Yea, ArtCenter is where I would want to go. I would never be able to go there straight form HS though b/c I don't have an extremely impressive portfolio (I don't even have one hehe) which you would most definately need to get in. It would be sweet though. I will probably get a degree in sime type of automotive thing first that could end up helping me in the long run. O well, back to life.

Back on topic....

I can't stop starring at these two cars. If only Lexus would carbon copy these for production

i would love to go to Art Center to design cars, but before you can design cars on PS, you have to be able to draw. I know someone who is excellent at designing cars. He goes to Art Center, and is trying to get a scholarship. He would like to design concepts.

Of course! I have been drawing seriously a long time before I discovered Photoshop. I normally use PS to play around with cars.

Thumbs up Nice!



It has very nice proportion. I like it! It looks like a bullet
You should definitely consider design school.

Oh my you've got some true talent there. That little spoiler you add to the convertible really sets it off. Props to you. You should definitely try getting a design job at Lexus. The future of Lexus lies in you.

Very nicely done!

However, seeing the 2-door concept you've created, it only draws the similarities closer to a Scion tC



I guess it's OK though. GS and IS are more closely aligned now aesthetically and why not the Scion?

LOOKIN GOODDDD!!!! I really like that look. It looks a lot like this, but more laid back (the cab is a more towards the rear of the car) and the rear window on your is smaller, which is sexier
