  4. Add detail the the wheels.
  5. Draw a line going behind the wheels to complete the outline of the car.

    • Tiny circle lights on the car doors.
    • The flashing siren on the roof.

  2. Add the wheels. Car wheels are much further apart than most people expect One is almost right at the back the other is underneath where the windshield meets the bonnet. More than just circles, don't forget the tires and the metal part of the wheels.
  3. Add a rim to the bottom of the car.
  4. Draw a trapezium in the top half of the car where the windows will be.
  5. Divide the windows into 3 parts. Note that one of these "dividers" is diagonal while the other is fairly vertical.
  6. Add the back light of the car. This is drawn as a slight bulge on the rear of the car. Also a tiny triangle on the roof of the car.
  7. Add details such as the side mirrors (an elongated and rounded triangle), the front light and door handles (two!).
