Here’ s the WIP for a 49’ Buick Roadmaster.

Superb modelling.

Only thing that I find odd, is that it looks to be a little too long, but that could just be the perspective in the render.

how can you model this sort of curve so exacly… i’m sure you have a trick! when i touch subsurf model it become like gelatine. i can’t realy master it.

Unless your going for an exaggerated look, I think the “hump” in the middle of the hood is too big.

I’m not sure that it’s the right car and I don’t think that you need them anymore, but here are blueprints for the 1941 Buick Roadmaster: http://smcars.nd4spdworld.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3703&highlight=buick+roadmaster

really nice, I think I would round the bumper/grill area[plan view]…those older cars had very few straight lines

This is really nice. I like the old cars. Someone said the bump in the hood was too much but I think it is more the dip between the hood curve and the fender is a little too deep, which makes the bump on the hood seem exagerated. And perhaps a little too long in the hood area.
But overall a very well done picture and a nice render. Also well done for doing so well without blueprints, you certainly captured the flavor of the car and time period.
