I'm frequently on GTA Online these days when I'm not reading up on my Japanese grammar nor drawing stuff. At first I was honestly apprehensive of giving it a try because of all the rumors of how terrible online can be in this game. However, despite the game's reputation for modders and hackers fucking everyone over, I do admit my 360 hours and counting of playtime I have does stand as a testimony of how I just love the game in general. You'd have to be lucky to find some actual people to play heists or stuff with though.
What I especially love about the game though is their ever-expanding collection of cars online. Admittedly as a kid I loved collecting small toy cars, and despite the teasing I received for being a tomboy then I couldn't care less about it; I thought they were really cool. Playing this game and seeing the cars over on their in-game online stores always feels like an absolute throwback to that time. And I especially love the fact that I could collect and drive any car I wanted and drive it all around the scenic locations of Los Santos and Blaine County. But that's assuming I was more than willing to grind or shell out the IRL ka-ching just to buy the cars I wanted in-game. Not that I mind grinding the hours away. Besides, racing was and still is an awesome way to earn money; I love the thrill of coming in first and leaving dirty fucking racers in the dust.
The first car I ever had was a Vapid Dominator. Difficult to handle but I love its design. I've had a few thoughts on drawing it some months ago, but I only bothered now, after looking up some car drawing tutorials this website kindly provided. Other than that it was all a matter of taking screenshots and sketching.
I actually wanna do a full on painting of this car or the Tempesta (another sleek and beautiful car, honestly) along with my in-game avatar. But I'm honestly not too confident in doing so just yet; this is my first attempt at drawing cars that don't look like stacked up boxes (though I have used the boxes as a reference). For now, more car sketch dumps.
