I post this again because it was erased.

my model:



feel free to coment, i m not satisfied with the surface yet...

[LaV]

Nice start.

What's wrong with the surface? It looks well enough, after all you are probably (?) going to bake it so some details will disappear. Could you post a wire'd screenshot?

[RacingFreak]

Looks wayyy better than first version! Keep it, very nice the textures

[Clutch]

Looks VERY nice Can you show me the grid?

[RacingFreak]

Also you dudes inspired me getting Blender. Is it easy to use/model?

[Clutch]

I think it is easier than 3ds max. I use it and I think it is very good software.

[LaV]

It depends of what you likes. Personnaly, I do use 3DS. I never got into Blender's interface which is quite disgusting for me (just my 2 cents heh ;d )

[Olanov]

Looks great!

[Fireboyd78]

Words cannot begin to explain how EPICALLY awesome this is!!

[Clutch]

I'll ask again... Can you show me wireframe?

[benflex]

thanks for the interest you guys show for the model

here is the wireframe...

TheOldGamer : i encourage you getting blender, the price is quite cheap for the features

[Clutch]

benflex, Blender is free.

[benflex]

yes: Blender is scandalously free!

[benflex]

I finished the high poly...(well it is sufficient for what i want to bake)

2nd picture is the low poly model

More on the texture later...

[RacingFreak]

I have to say.. it`s simply awesome! Very clean modelling, well done, like a pro

[Clutch]

very clear can you make screens with perspective?
I think now... you should make opened headlights. because in night it will look not good.

[benflex]

yeah true Clutch , i suddenly realise that i have to open them... still doable

RacingFreak yes blender helps giving a nice look by the way it is not very simple to start Blender but with time i can see advantages.

[Fireboyd78]

Make sure you keep the high poly models so that when the new importer is released, you can import those instead!

[Clutch]

Good idea, Doom I have some models too

[benflex]

I tryed it in driver1. Not satisfied yet.



Yeah Dr. Doom, and we ll have reflections...

[RacingFreak]

Looks awesome! Like a true stinger

[Submaniac]

It's nice but i'd say the front's too high. Or is it just me? Plus we can see through the rear wheel's panel. But yeah, it's cool

[Fireboyd78]

Actually, you can fix reflections right now by using the vertex patch. It's a bit complicated but it works.

[benflex]

Dr. Doom i tird the vertex fix but i havent managed to make it work

Submaniac yes true i have modified front. But for the inside, i very short in triangles, so that i can t hide it. I just need two more tris !!!

RacingFreak thnak you

Awesome release! And your texturing skills are just flamin` as a chilli

[RacingFreak]

Awesome release! And your texturing skills are just flamin` as a chilli

PS
Just loving your signature

[Clutch]

I love the texture, except headlights, they are too.... smoothly mapped? I don't know how to describe it.

[benflex]

Clutch yeah i know what you mean good observation again: it was just copy paste from a reference picture.

RacingFreak thank you for your encouragement!

Still if you have good driving skill i you can download the car and post a nice video with it

[RacingFreak]

Hey Ben, I think I may do a good video. I`ll let you know in the topic when it`s done/up

[benflex]
