I&#8217;ve used graphite pencil for years and much prefered it&#8217;s blending properties to any other medium but as this only required a little splash of red for the rear lights and a little yellow for the bow-tie, I thought I&#8217;d give it a go&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"highslide\" onclick=\"return vz.expand(this)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/CamaroBlackWIP2.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[6008]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-6011\" style=\"margin: 4px; border: black 2px solid;\" title=\"Drawing cars: 2010 Camaro SS sketch in progress\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/CamaroBlackWIP2-400x241.jpg\" alt=\"Drawing cars, 2010 Camaro SS, car drawings, hot rod art, hot rod drawings\" width=\"400\" height=\"241\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/CamaroBlackWIP2-400x241.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/CamaroBlackWIP2-150x90.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/CamaroBlackWIP2-300x181.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/CamaroBlackWIP2.jpg 799w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a>So, if you read my previous story here <a title=\"Car Drawings or Photos? blog\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/car-drawings-or-photos-you-choose\/\" target=\"_blank\">Car Drawings or Photos? You choose. <\/a>you will know how I go about my drawing process.\u00a0 This was no different other than it took a heck of a lot of 9B pencil to lay down all that black that&#8217;s in there.<br \/>\nThe colour I added at the rear lights was from a standard red felt-tip pen and coloured pencil, I bought a white gel pen to add the small white dots which gives the effect of the reflective lens. Coloured pencil once again was used for the Chevy badge.<\/p>\n<p>I was pretty pleased with this one in the end, I thought the little touch of colour was needed to break up the mass of black involved and it did the trick, a long time was spent on the wheels too which were very detailed and tricky but again well worth it. Now, just need to sell enough artwork to go buy a real one!!<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Alan's MyRideisMe Garage\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Garage\/Slammed56\/\" target=\"_blank\">Alan&#8217;s MyRideisMe Garage<\/a> and <a title=\"Alan's Deviant Art Website\" href=\"http:\/\/boss429.deviantart.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Art Webpage<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Alan Brightmore<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mr_social_sharing_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<!-- Social Sharing Toolkit v2.2 --><span class=\"mr_social_sharing\"><a href=\"http:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.myrideisme.com%2FBlog%2Fhot-rod-art-black-camaro-drawing%2F&amp;media=&amp;description=Hot+Rod+Art%3A+Black+Camaro+Drawing\" class=\"pin-it-button\" count-layout=\"none\"><img border=\"0\" src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/images\/PinExt.png\" title=\"Pin It\" \/><\/a><\/span><span class=\"mr_social_sharing\"><fb:share-button type=\"button_count\" href=\"https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/hot-rod-art-black-camaro-drawing\/\"><\/fb:share-button><\/span><span class=\"mr_social_sharing\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share\" class=\"twitter-share-button\" data-count=\"horizontal\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/hot-rod-art-black-camaro-drawing\/\" data-via=\"myrideisme\" data-text=\"Hot Rod Art: Black Camaro Drawing\"><\/a><\/span><span class=\"mr_social_sharing\"><div class=\"g-plusone\" data-size=\"medium\" data-annotation=\"none\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/hot-rod-art-black-camaro-drawing\/\"><\/div><\/span><span class=\"mr_social_sharing\"><a class=\"mr_social_share_email\" href=\"mailto:?subject=Hot Rod Art: Black Camaro Drawing&amp;body=https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/hot-rod-art-black-camaro-drawing\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-sharing-toolkit\/images\/icons_small\/email.png\" class=\"nopin\" alt=\"Email\" title=\"Email\"\/><span class=\"mr_small_icon\">Email<\/span><\/a><\/a><\/span><span class=\"mr_social_sharing\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"linksalpha_button linksalpha_link\" href=\"\/\/www.linksalpha.com\/social\/mobile\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/hot-rod-art-black-camaro-drawing\/\" data-text=\"Hot Rod Art: Black Camaro Drawing\" data-desc=\"It's been a while since I last drew anything and I really need to get back into it!
