Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Lancia 037 Rally
I have built only half this Lancia, and duplicated the other side for these screenshots, so please excuse any centrelines that you may see. I haven't made the rear lights yet, so I put some cylinders in there to help me visualise.
Also, I'm planning to build a fully populated engine bay, which is why you can see the petrol tubes through the rear window.

I also used the fantastic Subaru tutorial on gmask.com to help me
get started
A major hurdle I have now come across is texturing, as you can see by the headlight detail on this pic, there's a few miles to go before I'm educated enough to texturise my model perfectly. If anyone out there has a headlight they can send me, I would be very grateful, as this would help me learn quicker.

I'm not overly familar with this car, but from what I can see it looks like you've got the basic shape pretty well done. The bump on the bonnet looks a little wrong, maye try and sort out the sides a bit more so that it's got a slightly harder edge to it.

Not exactly the first model
I've attached a picture of a Lancia 037 Stradale, but body variances were widespread. The bump is bigger on my model, as per the race cars. (spare wheel compartment) but it should be a lump rather than my Ford Capri styled slope-up.

Okay, let's not start another one of these threads.

Going off Pure_morning's observations, I've now remodelled the bonnet bulge, and front corner into a more accurate shape, I won't post a picture, as you'll all start getting bored real quick!
By the way, has anyone got a realistic round headlight I can borrow.
Also, is there such a thing as an independent shader program, where you can use wizards or something and also see realtime results when changing shader parameters? Probably not eh!
