I decided to start a new thread for the new design of the car. Here is the first basic sideview shape of the car.

The original...all cuts and protrusions:

And the new with surfacing:

The latest wires as of yesterday, much more advanced update to be posted today sometime.

Diskovod · 12-10-2004, 06:40 AM

Great work, dude!
What are the specs?

BLOODY · 12-10-2004, 11:28 AM

what would you like to know?

shadowkeeper · 12-13-2004, 05:04 PM

Hey there!

so... hanven't you got 3dsmax yet? I mean come on... we need to make the trade!
I'll be arround and oh!... I forgot that I must help Levente! I'll see you arround bro.

BLOODY · 12-14-2004, 01:34 AM

No, I dont have 3DS yet, a trade sounds good to me.

I have not posted any updates because I have run into another problem with inserting a surface through a boundary cutout. This is preventing me from making small body refinements, inserting my windshield, light assemblies, things like that. I have been working on it but it seems I am wasting so much valuable time trying to figure this problem out rather that moving forward. I will post an update when I finally get one. One more issue I have run into is the side windows. When they are cutout they seem too small for the car but with the design of the side of the body I can't see a way to easily refine them. In the last image I posted it doesnt seem like an issue but the visual changes when they are cut. Does anyone have a suggestion of an easy fix that may take away from the side windows?

BLOODY · 12-16-2004, 02:17 AM

ok, I have solved the problem and moving forward with the model. I will post updates asap.

BLOODY · 12-22-2004, 01:59 AM

Finally I am making some headway on this damn car. I havent posted anymore pics because I wanted to have some actual changes. I should have some on within the next 24 hrs. I have run into a problem getting some parts of the body smoothed out. When I go into hte surface mesh I cannot seem to see the frlaws but they show in shaded view.

BLOODY · 12-27-2004, 06:42 AM

Here are a few minor updates. Havent had much time to work on it over the holiday but I will keep posted.

A couple more renders of the front end. I realize this model is taking a while but bare with me, it will get done. I just want this one done right the first time. Comments are welcome as always.

skinfather · 12-28-2004, 05:36 PM

Definitely looks better than your last concept i like more this one, but i can see that you have problems with your mesh in the areas close to the headlights.

You are gaining experience with wildfire in surface modeling but it´s also taking a lot of your time to do this model, get a trial version of max, maybe it would help when you compare the max tools with wildfire tools and solve your problems faster :thumbsup:

BLOODY · 12-28-2004, 06:08 PM

I know what you mean with the mesh. I am hoping when the model is finished I will be able to go through it and fine tune the mesh to fix all the flaws. The model is taking a while but I really havent had much time to work on it plus I am learning this program as I go. I dont personally know anyone that can surface with WILDFIRE so I am basically on my own. One flaw I am really having a hard time with is the triangular shadow on the bottom of the front clip just behind the fog light. I have looked and looked and cannot find that flaw in the mesh...very mind boggling. I am still waiting on my copy of 3DS which I will get and learn but I need to stick to WILDFIRE also for employment purposes. I am very curious how closely the two programs are when modeling.

Thanks for the comment, appreciated.

Here are the tires.

This reminds me of a Vector, Saleen, GT40 and Jaguar xj220 all in one :)
