First ever car i tried to model

[iamtravis316]

This is the first time I've modeled a car in 3DS Max 2008. Its a Mazda RX8 (or supposed to be lol) I don't have the wheels or head/tail lights in, in these pictures. However, now I have the wheels put in, and I will post more pictures later.





Any input or advice would be appreciated on how I could make this better. Seeing how this is the first time I've ever modeled a car.

I got the tires and rims done. All I need to do now is make the head/tail lights, and make the breaks, unless yall can think of something else.

I am using Vray now so here it is using Vray, also a different background and I also put in the exterior parts of the head lights.

well i dont know what to say :S
but as it is your first car it ok im sure you can do more :)
if you are intrested to modeled it good try to post wirefram wire ill help you if yu want :)

I don't like carpaint shader. There are a lot of carpaint shaders for Vray in net. Download some and try to use it.

I changed the car paint, idk it might be the same type but its a different color I got the material from Vray-materials.de - Your ultimate V-Ray material resource and I'm still working on the head lights I don't like the glare on the hood and the top of the car though I might fix that later

@ iamtravis316 : tell me are you intrested to modeling or renders?!

[iamtravis316]

Well I'm working on a different project now, but when I get done with that I was planning to do another car, so when I get that started I'll get in touch with you so you can help me out, but thanks for the input, and I will be in touch in the future.
