KenH Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Looks cool! There's something going on with the front wheel guards. Is this for a project or just a lone model? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-grid Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 There's something going on with the front wheel guards. Tell me; Whats going on with the front wheel guards. Niels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caroline Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 That's very nice - the front wheel guard appears to have a dent in it (where the head light points out). I guess with such a perfectly rounded car, our eyes expect to see a rounded wheel guard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agep Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Great model! Wireframe? without the roof it kind of look like the good ol' 313 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaryin Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I like the model also, but agree that the front wheel area looks a little dented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonsire Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I am working on a cartoon car. Niels Well done, Niels. The "dent" catches the eye because the rest of the car is in smooth curves, but I'll bet it was a deliberate choice, and that is the modelers perogative, even if it drives others crazy. <g> Cool job!

NancyGormezano Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 cute car - cute movie - cute puffs of smoke (would like to see them more obvious). Like your trees too. Good Golly Miss Molly!

mfortunato Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Excellent car design. Reminds me of something out of "Who Framed Roger Rabbit". Lovely animation too. Although, having it jostle up and down a bit in reaction to the engine working would help to give it even more character (not that you don't already have that in spades with your design).

Admin Rodney Posted February 9, 2007 Admin Share Posted February 9, 2007 Very cute cartoon car Neils. I love your little animation too. Everything but the Hash sign. Nothing against Hash but fix that! Put up a real billboard or something. The little pufts of smoke from the car... great touch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-grid Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 Neils. Is it a setup?... http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?showt...rt=#entry218728 I could reply... "If your eyes and brain were connected you should be able to really see...", nah, I won't do that since I agree with the Scripture: insults may teach but it will pass the student. Rodney, could you persuade me the principle why, "'Hash-sign' on the billboard" is really wrong/weird? This considering being a work-in-progress movie-post... Niels ps. Rodney, there's no blame/setup/insult in 'Niels' or 'Neils', it would be pronounced (nearly) the same in english Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Rodney Posted February 9, 2007 Admin Share Posted February 9, 2007 Rodney, there's no blame/setup/insult in 'Niels' or 'Neils', it would be pronounced (nearly) the same in english Good thing as I misspell words often. I know a more Neals and Neils than Niels. It is important to get peoples names spelled right (and not call them George when their name is Fred). Mistakes happen though. Trust me... if I insult someone... they'll know it. I'll be the lesser man though. As far as the billboad... just a suggestion. While its great to support Hash Inc its better to keep your own vision going. I make a distinction between support and art. Maybe your animation is meant to support Hash. If that is the case a Hash sign is perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-grid Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 While its great to support Hash Inc its better to keep your own vision going. I make a distinction between support and art. I don't always walk for my own vision and sometimes support is art. Maybe your animation is meant to support Hash. If that is the case a Hash sign is perfect. Well, like I said earlier, I first intend to let it say "No drivers allowed(on this part of the road)", but I changed it to a landscape and added later-on "Hash", support may be the best description. In the back of my mind thinking, if this only will be played back through the Hash-site it's nice for A:M, on the other hand, I still remember reading from polygonist in some forums(over a year ago), they doubt if all models were really created in A:M in the first place, I know all models could be, this since deliberate import as props is an option(which I haven't used yet).

C-grid Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 Yes, I know Treeez, it comes standard with v13, I did make some tree's with it but it does give a certain particular tree, I like having it, but my feel tends to respond, drawing a 1 spline trunk add some spline for branches onto the trunkknot may give faster and easier tree's, of course not to replace Treeez.

C-grid Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 You should keep in mind, that children can only comprehend a certain detail-level. A dutch-draw-artist Dick Bruna shows this principle very well with 'Nijntje' for the real youngsters. Children interpret little already as much. As teach-device nowadays the '2 pictures whats the difference' is offered. Niels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
