Olay and back from the dead!
i haven't used maya in prob 3 years now.. lol
just installed it again and figured i would try to make someting

so..
im starting on a Nissan RPS13 (aka 180sx hatchback) and tuned out and what not.. Slammed, rims, cage, widebody kit.. and a S15 headlight conversion
i started on the windows for the car.. and then ADD kicked in.. so i started to make the rims

and this is what i got so far

I can't seem to get GI_joe to work.. it just crashes maya :S

yea that is tough. Man im waiting to see how this turns out. U should join the drif comp at sektor-41.com. u build a drift car form head to toe,t hats what my skylines for. then noce ya cars done, u will get a tut on how to do the animation. there isnt any 180's so it would be kool to see this in the comp. the light area does look a bit bumpy but over it looks nice
