Around Torrance, I see a lot of interesting different types of vehicles. I’ve seen R32 GTRs, Mclarens, Ferraris, and even some stanced Lexus LS430s. One vehicle I’m a fan of is the modified GX470. When I was in college, these were primarily used as grocery getters driven by soccer moms. Lately, people are learning that these vehicles are great for off-roading. Around town I’ve seen examples of GX470s with lift kits, roof racks and extra fuel canisters. I think its a very cool, repurposed look.
I wanted to create a sketch thats aggressive, yet fun. I thought pearl paint with bronze trim would look classy. The design features useful off roading accessories like a roof rack, extra gas tank, a modernized brush guard and plenty of LED lighting. This was sketched on an iPad with Sketchbook Pro.
Some initial progress before the final line drawing and color.
