Forum_snowboarder33 - really nice render!

Are you using advanced tessellation? If not go to windows>general editors>attribute spreadsheet with all your nurbs selected you can play with the tessellation attributes. I find that upping the default levels for all nurbs is a good start.

looking forward to more!

nice bottle. but the valve - why do you turn it to the left to close and to the right to open??

lol good point :D

do i have the directions backwards? .. if i do.. ill switch it... Made a desktop... just used a couple parts from the car.. what do you think?
p.s. ill try and do that tessellation attriute think soon
:2gunfire: :spam3: :mingun:
desktop is at 1024x768

I like the reflection(s) on the NOS bottle :D

here is a new desktop i made using some parts from my car... what do you guy think? Sorry 56kers.. its a bit big

My idea of course :D Looks awsome tho man. The lighting on the laying down NOS tank handle looks abit wierd.

I wanted the lighting that way.. so i made a plane out of camera sight.. with a slit in it for the light to pass through.. thats why it seems to be only lit on half of it.

Are the disk brakes supposed to be that wide?? I'm not fully sure, but they look quite wide to me. Otherwise, VERY nice work.

Back to working on the car - i can do a desktop later. Here is the steering wheel that i am going to model.. i will post my attempt at the steering wheel in the next post.

here is my attempt... what do you guys think? C&C?

here is a simple texture job

man... I like that... really nice!

Forum_snowboarder33 this is looking like a very nice project see your a detail frrek like me also ;) the steering wheel is awsome .............is all this polys??

very impressive keep it up bud look forward to seeing more

im doing it all in nurbs... makes it easier to do the details

pretty cool !!!
how did you do that (see the pic) with NURBS ????

i did project curve on nurbs surface, and the duplicated the surface so that i could trim the outside piece out (leaving the little grip) and on the other duplicated surface, i cut out the little grip. This way i would leave one surface that looked seemless, but it was in two parts. After getting these two surfaces, i just moved the little grip down, along with this outside curve. Then just simply lofted the two curves together.. and donedee. Hope this helps a bit.

here is the seat i made for the car.. what do you guys think.. and don't mind the simple textures that i put on there.. it was just to show the different parts. Im rendering another view

here is another render.. still not a good render, but i have to go to work.. so i dont have time to fix it. What do you guys think? C&C?

here is the seat that i tried/ got most of my ideas from

Looks comfy :D

This is looking great man! You should trow the stuff you have together and give us a render.

here is a render of the entire project as it stands. Any idea why the blue is rendering all blurry in the pic? C&C?
GI_Joe render coming soon

this is comming together real nice dude!
Two thumbs up :)

i think the GI_joe one doesn't look as nice.. but ah well.. You can't see inside as well

now looking at a couple of the renders.. i need to redo or fix the side mirrors... ill do that tomorrow after school

wow its getting really nice !!

i can t wait to see this car !!!!! :D

Looking nice but I have a question on this part.. is it supposed to be like that? :confused:

no.. i don't really know why it does that.. i will fix it though... just some something out of wack i guess.

What methods did you use to get the fine fence like look out of the front intake and stuff (the little holes)

damn it is looking great so far.
are you going to texture ie or only simple shaders?

BigFat: I used poly cubes at 30 or so degrees to eachother.. then booleaned them together using union (its the only poly i have on the car, besides some of the bolts)
EagleKing: I will be doing some textures for the outside of the car, but at a later time. I just do it on the interior so people can get a general look of it.

Here is an update on the interior.. i will render out a couple other shots as well

Here is another view

Here is another angle to show what it looks like from the outside of the car. Don't worry about the exterior, since i haven't really started to correct that yet.:2gunfire:

i hope you could get out an animation Fast and the furious style when ur done!

Yea, I agree w/Vec. You can use my car too, forum ;). One crit tho....the dashboard. The blue part is too....plasticy looking. But other than that, keep up the work man!

Can't wait till you increase the Tessilation of your nurbs! That will get rid of all of your hard edges. Love the interior!
Brian

here is another render.. i think i turned up the Tessilation.. not really sure.. i know i turned off hard edges. What do you guys think? C&C?
