Ah okay. I checked that video. Looks quite neat tool . Maybe I will buy Rhino 4.0 licence when its finished but at the moment when I'm just hobbyist I'm quite happy with my old 2.0(without free updates I would be still using 1.0 :lol.

Sorry no update this time. I have been too lazy to model ops:

I bended the side more in but I think that its still not quite how it should be but I'm too lazy to start rebuilding whole side so I will keep it like it's now.

Hello again! Beautiful work so far! Keep at it... looks great!

Oh and about changes between the 944 Turbo and the Turbo S and newer 944 Turbo's. They ARE different! Not so much the body... more the engine, suspension, wheels, and brakes.

:idea: The 1988 Turbo S and 1989-1991 944 Turbo's have the more powerful 250hp engine called the M44/52. The regular pre-1988 944 Turbo's have the M44/51 engine that have 220hp. They produced the regular 220hp 944 Turbo's from 1985-1981985 only in Europe). After the 1988 run of the "special edition" 250hp 944 Turbo S model's, they got rid of the old 220hp 944 Turbo and kept all of the changes from the Turbo S for all 944 Turbo's produced after 1988. Then in 1989, they renamed them back to just the "944 Turbo". Thats why you dont see any 1989-1991 944 Turbo S's.

:arrow: The 1988 Turbo S's and 1989-1991 Turbo's came with a larger turbocharger (K26-70), larger 4-piston brakes (from 928 S4), a factory limited slip differential, anti-lock brakes, 16" machined disc wheels (F: 7", R: 9"), a stiffened torque tube, stiffened torsion bars, stiffened anti-sway bars, and adjustable Koni shock absorbers. They do 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in 5.4 secs and had a top speed of 161 mph.

I hope thats not too hard to understand. The only real difference you can actually see in the Turbo S's and newer 944 Turbo's is the 7 spoke flat finish wheels opposed to the telephone dials of the earlier turbos. They look alot like the 944 S2's so make sure you check before assuming that its a 944 Turbo or Turbo S.

Heres some pics of the different years:

1988 944 Turbo S:


1989 944 Turbo:


1990 944 Turbo (not stock, as you can see):


1991 944 Turbo:



Well there ya go. I hope this help's you in your modeling! The better you know the car your makin, the better your model will come out!

RB25DET_S14Zenki, Thanks for all that info . I think I dont model those original rims because they look quite boring . Dont know yet what kind rims I will do.

Some test renderings to see how it looks like .




Almost all filleting done now. I used several hours filletin those damned front fenders(well of course just one because the other is just mirrored) :?. They were quite tricky.

Reflections in Rhino surfaces looks perfect...

But IMHO there is few modeling flaws.

green - shape is wrong
light blue - edge should be less pronounced
red - there is something strange - but maybe it should stay - I don't know
light orange - this edge should be less edgy - mayby try too fillet it more.

Render is very good

EDIT: Sorry, pic attached now...

[Johnas]

Hmm... I can't see the pic or is it just me?
Not in Mozilla or IE :?

EDIT There's something wrong with my own comp. I can see the pics with other PC fine...

[majestic]

Marqus, too late.
Those bugs are nearly damn impossible to fix at this point.

Yeah you are right. But like majestic said they are very hard to fix at this stage .
That spot you circled with red looks wrong because low export settings. It should be better with better settings.
I will see what I can do to those mistakes but I'm pretty sure that nothing can be done at this stage .

With this wip stage and low export settings it was about 200 000 polys in 3dsmax.

[revelli]

only 200k?
wow
on the reflections i cannot see, that the car has so low polies
