That is FUNKY! It's got a nice style to it. Nice render, too. But my neck feels sore already, just thinking about how the driver has to sit in order to see out the windshield. Are there going to be characters invovled in this project? Are they going to be realistic characters or stylized? It would be interesting to see who was going to drive that machine.

 

Keep us updated,

 

Jim

Thx for your comment JIM... you are one of my patches´s heroes :D

 

Characters arent involved for while , if i concept them they will be stylized, I was thinking about a thin guy, with gloves, boots and helmet, but I am not sure if it will be necessary model him

 

It looks now very cool but gears looks too black to me
Thx Haikalle .... you means the tires , right ?? Yes they are too black ... ill resurface it ( the verb resurface exists ??? ) :unsure::unsure:

 

Wow. That's really nice. And what a cool car! I want one!

 

Thank YOU ED !!!!! another heroe !!!!!!

Me too Me too .. if you know anyone to do it ......

 

That is the very definition of a customized low-rider chop!
Thx Robert !!! :D:D:D but how i said characters arent involved for while ...

Thank you very much , King !!!! all material was done setting up the surface control

Interesting looking vehicle there, I like the daring design.

 

In beta 2, you can use a reflection filter to get a stronger colour reflection (if you want). You can have the reflection at 100% and still have it coloured.

 

Just thought I would let you know.

What's your modeling technique?

Thnaks Zach !!!

 

This question was complicated.

I, firstly,model the isolated parts of a group and then I weld them .I took about 3 days in the front part, to weld it satisfactorily..

I had to use many hooks (mainly to reduce it the number of control points in the light - round for almost plan) and five points almost in whole the model, and that needs to be done carefully for not causing wrinkles

Basically it is that!!!

 

cheers

Was that one rendered with one of those great domelight setups by Yves Poissant? If not, you should DEFINITELY do so ( my suggestion - a 25 light dome).

 

GREAT!

Xtaz,

 

You're project looks great....fantastic modelling and a great set.

 

I am really looking forward to seeing more of this. And if you're this good with cars, I'm assuming your characters will be top notch as well.
