Real World Racer : VW Passat B6 Pikes Peak

[Astr0s]

Here's some of tonight's "fruit", still a bit of a mess but its getting there, not too worried about the bumps yet rims & seat are just place holders for now

Great job ! I especially like the air intake in front of rear wheel. It looks really good.

[Stew2000]

That's amazing. great job!

[golfgtimm]

looks nice,you should only add the R-line grill

[Astr0s]

Thanks, will continue today if i find the time, again.

@golfgtimm, yeah, reckon i could, but i quite dont fancy the r36 nor the r-gt concept masks, i find the basic better ;p

[rcat]

That is looking absolutely amazing.
(Remember the Pikes Peak Suzuki in Gran Turismo ?- best car in the game)

Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak..

[EquiNOX-1]

Awesome job...

[Astr0s]

Cheers guys! More to come, modeled an optima yellow top for it and some other small stuff.

Edit: made dual fire extinguisher systems etc

You could remove the headlights like an usual Pikes Peak racer, but then the car would probably loose the good looks.. anyway check out the rear end of this vehicle, might get you some ideas on a diffuser for that rear bumper

[Astr0s]

Yeah, perhaps i could radicalize the diffuser, havent really touched the rear yet apart from the current "small" diffuser & splines. The lights i intented to do because it could be driven elsewhere rather than just a purely pikes peak, also lights are just good to have Reckon some lights atleast suit the car better than lights-lookalike-stickers.. which would be easier to make though

[Stew2000]

It's looking amazing Astros!

[OriK]

One of my favorites so please finish it .

[Astr0s]

Cheers! Yours looks bloody amazing btw. I shall finish this, just been at my girlfriends parent's house for the past few days and havent been able to model anything I really want to get back on this, hopefully tonight!

damn thats really sick man.. I dont understand though how spline modeling works exactly..

He is just making the reference from a spline cage,hes poly modeling for the actual mesh.

[Synetearis]

Aaah thats explains alot, thnx!

[chris20]

Awsome details Astr0s. Looks super clean too.

[Astr0s]

Rawr! Started doing the rear today.. was going for a rather raw look

[tom120934]

I love the small wings on the outside of the rear diffuser. They don't look robust but they rock ! Details on exhaust tips are nice too.

It looks like you have a small bump below the bulge of the rear light, on the body part. Otherwise no critic from me.
