Here's the link to THE MAN devianb who developed this syle:

Basically he ink outlines a pic of the car on a litebox. then he scans it into phot shop and adds color background, etc. Most of us just do our own or add to his. However I believe he is not doing them anymore. You will have to create your own once you find his post.

Yep, that is how I basically did mine.
I draw in pencil an outline of the basic shape of a car, basically tracing so I can get a perfect perspective.
Then I draw whatever features I want on the car, in pencil still. I usually leave the wheels and lights blank.
I then use a black ink marker to finish the final drawing so that I can erase the pencil changes.
I then scan it into the computer and edit it with photoshop.
EasySPEED used the paintbrush and outlined the body lines of the car in photoshop and did some other stuff the way I do it. It is kind of hard to explain it. We use different approaches and techniques, but they kind of end up the same. I have been constantly changing the way I have been editing them in the computer so I can't tell you specifically how I do them. I used Adobe photoshop exclusively for all of them.
I did quite a few thirdgen drawings. I made some sigs, where as some people just used my drawings and made sigs from them. Other members did drawings in thier sigs too, but I don't know what they used.
It is true that I am not doing thirdgen drawings anymore, except for 2, mine and another member's. I got kind of tired of doing them so I am taking an indeffinate break. I don't know if or when I will be starting thirdgen drawings again. School is keeping me pretty busy so I don't have time to do any drawings.

I had to lighten it to see the ghost flames. I don't know if it was the resolution or my computor or what. See the difference?

Since I did the drawing, I have the originals too. I sent Flynlow92RS a better pic of the car, but, I don't know if I sent him the right one, or if he even got it at all.
