Hi@all
Pretty new on this forum, thus i don't know what's not to do; hope you tell me gently if i don't
You would surely excuse my english, as i'm not from any english speaking country.
Let me introduce my last work in progress: a Ford Shelby GT500 E ("e" for Eleanor, if you were asking). This one catch my attention as "Gone in 60 seconds" was playing on Tv that night... Couldn't let her go without me
I use 3dsmax for both modeling & render (with default scanline) so far. However, I'm planning on rendering with mental ray, or Vray.
Unfortunately I couldn't find any goodlooking blueprint anywhere on the net for this chick; just gathered about 50Mbytes of reference pictures, and went on it
All C&C Welcome
Nb: the rim of the Eleanor is thought to be a kind of "remake" of the old GT-40 rim. Just grabbed a few refs about the old one, which looked prettier to me
(not final version of it, still tweaking things around)
The tyre is a Goodyear F1 (home made bump+spec maps too)
I'm currently working on the roof, the front glass and front armatures; sort of difficult by just looking at references, but it will do the trick. Next step after final verifications at overall proportions will be the "cutting" of elements (doors, rear case door, rear bumper, and so on...). Final will be adding all features like mirrors, exhaust tips, ID board, logos, headlights, rearlights, etc etc)
Just joinded a Gif i made for a friend who wanted to know how to begin it. Don't know which method you people are using; for myself i just begin with a 1x1 editable poly plan; then just extruding edges.
