DarkLimit Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Cool...... The way I approach modeling is viewing the model in half.....it makes it more simple for me to visualize it although u have rotoscopes.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3DArtZ Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I think i need to go on a control point diet/spline diet. What do yall think. To save you a bit of a headache.... expect to delete splinage after you've modeled most of the car. That way you can build to match the shape/rotos without going crazy. Also, I'm not sure what you ment before, but this car was not constructed of one solid piece. It was built section by section. So certianly dont try and build this as one mesh.

Viper GTX2.0 Posted July 16, 2007 Author Share Posted July 16, 2007 I think im geting the hang. its looking better every day and still need to make it a lil more smooth but its geting there.

Eric2575 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Viper: I don't want to detract from what you are doing, so I am not going to model the NIXUS now. You are doing great and should keep this thread for yourself. If I can be of any help, I will. I will certainly keep checking back in here. Keep up the good work.

Viper GTX2.0 Posted July 16, 2007 Author Share Posted July 16, 2007 OK now wat smooth it out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric2575 Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Smoothing it out comes last. Finish all the rest of the panels and everything else. Patience, patience, patience. Besides, from that angle it looks pretty smooth. Once you are done with all the panels, put a high spec and med intensity value on all the panels and look at it from all sorts of different directions. The spec values will give a clearer indication of where the panels need to be straightened. Then smooth, then post final and wireframe render of trouble spots for us to examine.

Eric2575 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Start with the wheelwell outline and extrude back. Very similar to the back wheelwell. You are doing great, just keep experimenting. Every shape is a new challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3DArtZ Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Looks great from the side.... however, I don't like that 3pt patch you have, or at least what looks to be a 3pt patch by the back wheel area. Youd be better off running another spline around the wheel fender for avoid any rendering artifacts... But overall, very nice repro sofar of a pretty sharp car design...
