The problem is, if you donÕt get the dynamics right, then it wonÕt look good.

If you do it in Italia, you just have to model some really hot chicks. user added image

Must be pretty easy to make a wrecked model, isn't it? Just go nuts with the sculpt polygon tool...user added image

Anyway, looking good so far; can't wait to see more of the track! user added image

nope:bandit: its easier than that... select the model go to the dynamics menus layout then go to soft/rigid bodies>creat soft body with the car selected then select both the car and the created particles and apply a turbulence field, same way i did the terrain

hehe just what i was looking foruser added image
