Rep Power: 0   | nissan fairlady 350z hi everyone! just to reminisce on the old days ( not too old ) when i first started to step into the 3d world...cars has always been my passion. and the first car i built was a 350z...that was in 2004, sadly my HDD crashed so i couldnt dig it back up to compare with this one...critics and suggestions are welcome :) happy viewing! btw as im currently working on nextgen games, i'm modeling on a 'below 22500 poly' rule...so guess im still on track coz halfbody of the car currently counts to 1770 poly :D started of with some splines for the spline cage    |

Rep Power: 0 | cowel1987 : thanks man. practice makes perfect :D here's some updates -added details to the front -defined shutlines and gaps of components -for the time being, the bodykits are still in the testing stage.might change em or maybe not. high res references for veilside bodykits are hard to find.this bodykit is from modiauto.com -modeled racing hart rims, the standard rims are ugly ;p questions, suggestions and critics are always welcome.thanks!   symmetry-ed it and im quite satisfied with the overall looks,will continue on the rear detailing when i have time  |
