The girl seems nice and should be an easy paint. The truck appears to be a 1951/1952 Ford pickup. Apart from some distortion/perspective issues, a chrome spear is missing on the side of the hood/bonnet and the two creases on the front part of the fender/wing shouldn't be there. Artist's license I assume... If anything, this will be an exercise in rendering a gloss red paint scheme over constantly changing angles. And then there's the chrome...

Off to a great start. I am really curious how you are going to do the chrome bumpers on the truck. With her reflection on the chrome? Looking forward to more WIP shots.
