Yesterday i was bored. So I came up with an idea. I decided to make myself a new wallpaper. As a noobie(ish) I couldn't go that extreme, but what I'm gonna go is slowly add new vehicle parts and possible signs to my wallpaper. Tell me what you think so far. Sorry I didn't have time to make it smaller.

mahalo,

It's a bit dark but maybe that's how you want it

I would make the wheels more shiny and sparkly ...

I'm not sure what those are on the right..maybe headlights?

Other than that I like it... it's simple and nice at the same time

Add some more stuff soon!

I made a stop sign, but I'm still working on the positioning of it. It is touching the tire and the ground, but it seems to be in to perfect of a position.

If you wouldn't mind, you can suggest some car/street/driving related objects to me. I plan on adding a street light sometime soon.

For the wheels, the tire is polygons and the hubcaps are NURBS.

For the tires I created on tread and duplicatd it in a circle then combined each part.

The hubcaps are just lofted circles with some holes cut out.
