Thanks for the critique winkosmosis. You have some valid points. Back to the you can't judge you own work thing. Your comments force me to look at the styling from a different perspective for when you are creating the shapes you sometimes lose sight of the overall picture, which is important in automobile styling.

You nailed me on the bulge in the hood area being like the head of a dolphin or whale. I wanted to have ample room for the electric powerplant.

If I ever do another model I will take your suggestions into consideration. Mainly, I enjoy doing the clay sculpture and consider myself to be very fortunate to have learned the skill from some of the old Master Modelers at Ford. I hope someday to reach the skill level those old guys had, no five axis mills and computers, just sculpture.
