hi.........seems somebody liked the idea....here's the latest steps...

till now nothing....a friend of mine..who knows the owner of the company whitch toke the distrbution rights from porsche saw my porsche 911 and asked me if i'm able to do a commercial movie for porsche...i sayd said sure...then he talked to them...they welcomed the idea and the manager called me to insure my ability to do the add...this add would coast them alot if they made it outside of the country....so at the moment, i'm preparing the 3d model of carrera....there's no idea in thier minds...i thought about making it 3d not a camera add cuz i will do some morphing and effects that can't be made on a real carrera...changing from a spaceship looks somehow like the body of the car into the carrera shape....( came directly from future) this is the basic idea i have...i thought to do the modeling in A:M then do the animation in C4D....i changed mymind as i want everything to be done inside A:M...with adobe after effect support..one of the concepts they asked for is to give some localize look in the add..like the porsche standing and an old yemeni building in the back....not sure yet what will i do....i think i have to finish the model first then i will have the material which will help me to do the add.... jin

itsjustme ....i don't ignore anyone....u r always welcome to say anything...i'm ur brother my dear...yes u r right. it's one piece...i didn't seprate it yet....well....now i'm preparing a tutorial..or a how to, and will explain in details how i made this porsche, during the steps i will do every singl part....by the way...this model is number 4...guess what...i remodeled it from zero 4 times....this made me discover many mistakes and try to avoid them evry time i model a new car...therfore...now i'm going to post how i did everything..and i want the support from everyone....i will post the last step as MDL file so everyone can take a look and modify it...i'm not perfect and u should know that the main goal for this car is to come up with great car modeling methods for A:M ..when i look at other car modeled in other 3d apps i feel bad..i want to get the same result here in A:M so i beg everyone to share this tut..write it even....i will post my ID and password i'm using in this forum so u can modify and repare my mistakes....guys....let's go together.....i will need every singl help.... thanks for all in advance

ok then...........i will start preparing the basic stuff for the tut...but pay attension that my english isn't that great....so i think robert should fix some paragraphs from time to time cus he's the only one understands what i mean...all the time.heheh...

hey.....nice model....i think u have to model a once shape model with bevels and stuff....it m ay work this way...but i think u have to test both methods...also depends on the result u wish to get....if this shape is what u want....go a head and complete the rest of his body.... realy good work.........keep us informed

ok,,,,,,,do u think it's time to post my first (how to) tutorial in how i modeled this car??????? does anyone interst about modeling cars??

hi guys bentothemax: sure the pix helped..but cuz i made a mistake from the start. i couldn't get the front light the way they should be....i tried another design instead. iGeek: very good tut. but for decaling, not for the material i wish to use...i think i will use this once i fail trying the projection map...well.. let's go for something else, the material of the car itself,,,,does this mat is ok?? lighting also is very important for realastic pic....this is what i want to get as a result....if someone wish to post him the porsche model....i will.....this will increase the ideas that we can get to have a car render similar to other 3d apps....proving that AM is not less than other apps....

i'm back.....i added mirrors and adjusted the front light, also added a bump map to the tires...it's a decal...i was wondering how to apply the projection map material around the tire to use it as a continouse bump map....if someone know the correct settings pls tell me......thanks and waiting for your comments..

that's awesome.....can u please explain with pix how u did that cuz i'm still a newbie and don't know the pose slider and what does it do... thanks in advanced

here is other renders....sure some of them have some places where needs some tweaking....but it's ok to share them with you brothers and sister.. if someone has comments or suggestion i would be more than happy to apply them to my model.... thanx guys,,

hi there, i could take my laptop with me,,,,and connected it with my cellphone.....i'm happy....hehehe...so these are some renders for the last step i made,

hi and thanx for that, pixel...i will post a rendered image very soon...the problem is that i can't come to use my comp cuz i'm going to travel to another city in my country for 2 days....i promise to post new stuff i made when i'm back...forgive me guys....i'll miss u for 2 days...hehe...i'll be thankful if someone can post me a pix for porsche head light..a very close one....thanx for everything your brother.....jin

explaning how i started modeling the car

hi...yes pixelmech...here u r a wireframe images for front and back side of the car..also i would like to post how i started modeling the car...the red stroke around the splines are the basic splines i started with which is the main edges for the car..maybe for me, then the blue one is where i started to build the spline cage to form the body...sure the starter splines wasn't that much of splines cuz i'm trying to lower the count of CPs i use...details are forcing me to add more splines here and there...thanks...
