THE END IS NEAR!

     The end is near! The end is near! No, I'm not preaching a 2012 demise... I am approaching the end of this project. Great time for the end to be closing in because I am 78 hours into my original 100 hour quote. It is also good timing because I might not be able to work on projects like these anymore. It seems like I have worked on this project for longer than I have. It actually started back on June 1st of 2008 but I've only worked on it for 78 hours which works out to about 2 work weeks. So the end is getting closer.
    Well to start this post off recently I was laid off from my full time job which ya know, sucks... but the silver lining is that I get time to finally get at this project and try to finish it up. I have been making a considerable amount of progress. Before starting this session of work I had a lot of the surfaces drawn and in place but they didn't really look exactly the way I wanted them to. Some of the problems were remedied  as easily as changing a tangent influence to a curvature continuous influence. Others were fixed by adding a connector. Some however required a bit more work.
    Most of the features, like I said, were already in place. One that wasn't (or two because it is mirrored on both sides of the car) was the vent behind the front wheel well.It can be seen (barely) in the image to the right.
    As you can tell the Coupe is moving along and soon should be reaching it's end. I'm still not exactly sure what the next step is for the coupe. I know who I'm drawing it for but not exactly sure what the purpose is. I'll have to get in contact with him soon to see what he wants to do with it though.
    If unemployment has done me any favors, its finally given me the time to work on this project and finish it up. Finish it just in time as well! So that is the latest update. I am hoping to go work on it tomorrow for a decent amount of time and see how close I can get to finishing it all up.
