PRS Guitar
 

Decided to take a break from modeling cars, so I chose to make a guitar. PRS Guitars are pretty and all, so I decided to make one. Here's how I am after about 1.5 hours or so. :)

nice man. At least you got a good reference actually having one huh?

I was gunna make a guitar, but not ready for one yet, But it looks nice. Its still in the works so nothing major to comment on yet.

Yea, still quite abit to do. Gotta fix the bottom part of the neck, where it meets the body. Make the strings, and basically convert it all over to sub-ds. Then texture, of course :)

Looks good and has nice proportions. I was going to comment on the part where the neck meets the body, but it seems you are already aware. If you're converting that to sub-ds you probably could have got away with using a lower polycount because of the way sub-d's work.

Well, all together, its less than 1000 polys (quads, not tris). I myself thought that less than 1000 polys is pretty good (for me atleast). :)

Gotten anything else done or just chatting.

Ya, I made the pickup selector. :)

How are you going to make the strings? Basic cylinders or what? I noticed youve been avoiding them so far. Or putting them off.

strings would be the easiest part, just extruded circles along curves and then you could animate the curves if you had to.

hey that's pretty good - i was going to try to make a guitar at some point, nothing fancy like a prs but probably just a strat or something. a lot more stylized and cartoony but it's all the same basic idea. i like yours a lot, it looks nice. psyched to see what it'll look like in subd when the edges of the body will be smoothed out. did you just use the create poly tool to make the form of the body?

knowing hybrid he prolly extruded.:)

dont forget the pickguard and the strap knob thingy

its lookin nice man :)
maybe its the angle but the neck looks a bit short

I dont know how Im going ot make the strings yet. cant decide if im going to extrude, or make a curve, and use a tube script i have. soulcialism, yea, i just used the create poly tool for evertying, then basically extruded faces here and there. very simple stuff. :)

Nem, this one dosent have a pick guard. As for the strap knob thingis, done. :)

strap knob. Guessing 6 sides cylinder. Scaled down on one side, extruded smaller on the other, then extruded into the threads?

Just thinking of how i might do it. Plan on making one soon.

And think you can send me that tube script next time your online. I could really use it for some projects.
