Hard to see... is there a reason why it takes up a small part of the image?

Computer skills I should have:
Objective C, C#, Java, MEL. Python, C++, XML, JavaScript, XSLT, HTML, SQL, CSS, FXScript, Clips, SOAR, ActionScript, OpenGL, DirectX
Maya, XSI, Photoshop, AfterEffects, Motion, Illustrator, Flash, Swift3D

Okay here is a close up of my pig with a bit more detail I am assigning basic shaders to help distinguish.

Team opportunity: I suck at texturing so if anyone actually wants to try this teaming up idea I could use a texture artist and we could divi up some modeling on the flight machine I have a basic sketch but I am open for ideas as well. Just a thought let me know if anyone is interested.

Thanks

Here is another update on the pig. I better call him good and actually start working on my flight machine as it wont do me much good to have a pilot without an aircraft.

anyways wish me luck I don't typically model vehicles.

I welcome any constructive crit please feel free to let me know what you think

Thanks

Started working today on my flying car. I decided to use the chitty chitty bang bang car as a reference since I think it is so cool I am pleased with my progress so far.

Take a look at the car https://www.onlytoptens.com/wp-conten...bang-bang.jpeg

and here is my version so far

I liked the car bro. Keep up the good work. Hope i will upload some progress soon, stuck with the machine gun for 2 days :S

LOL Dave singing I bet that is a sight to see.

@CT yeah I thought it would be pretty funny to see a pig fly that was my idea.

@Goggles what part of the Machine gun are you stuck on?

I made a big hole below the body with a door opening. Unfortunateley, the hole is too big to fill with stuff I'll find a solution for that for a time...

Still working on the Bang Bang Car I got the wings attached few more details and then on to the part that will kill me...... Texturing ugh

anyways have a look and let me know what you think

Thanks

looking really good Jake.

I feel your pain when it comes to texture painting. I am not a painter and my finesse with a pen tab is about the same as a brain surgeon trying to wield a scalpel wearing 15 pound boxing gloves!

But hang in there!
