How to be modern? - Bottom front of the car.
Might as well contribute…
The modern design is very complicated. However, I can help you with that. This guide will help you to make your most bottom part of the front end of your car look modern.
Let’s use this generic car as an example. This would look like something out of 2014 or 2015. That’s fine. But it is too simple when compared to modern designs. How?! Well, the very bottom of your car is flat. Nowadays, cars have all kinds of shape on their car.
Take a look at this Honda civic. Look at the bottom half of the front end of the car. It has all kinds of shape. This guide will help you try to achieve a similar effect.
Step 1: A lip like this can add a little bit of shape to this generic car. It gives a sportier feel to it. However, that’s not enough.
Step 2: Making the whole bottom grille of your car black will make your car look even sportier and more modern. If you want to make a sporty model for something like 2013-2017, go ahead, use this technique, together with the lip I mentioned. The body-coloured lip creates a contrast to the car.
Step 3: Now this is better. The fact that this particular grille sticks out already gives it extra space. Make sure the lip is in the 4th layer so that it keeps its natural state without being disturbed by any other things. It already looks even more modern. However, we take things even more extreme. We want the bottom of this grille to be black. But how?
Step 4: Boom! Use this grille or any other grille that has a similar shape to this and make sure that it is one layer above the the grille of step 3. Using these combination of grilles, you can make your car look very modern. (Also, I just realise that the steps I gave you make your car look like a Mercedes Benz, lol. If you don’t want to look like that, don’t use the grille I use. Instead, experiment making new shape of grille.)
Step 5 (optional): If you want to add even more shape to your car, use one of the lips I circled in red. The first 2 inside it extended to the front, I suggest using them for sportier models. The last 2 inside the circle is like the one in the picture. It adds a tiny little more shape to your car. You can use this for normal models. For the other lips, I suggest you don’t use that. Another thing to note is make the lips black too. If you make them body-coloured, it will screw up your appearance. Don’t try.
Last but not least, always choose a modern-style wheel that supports 2 tone painting. Make the secondary paint black, or choose any wheel, but make it a dark colour.
This technique also works on car that has one massive main grille like an Audi or this one. If you put it over the massive grille, it will also make new shapes. Just experiment with the grille. Thank you!
