Nearly finished dodge charger.

[Coaster]

HI all, I'm new round here and it's taken me ages to find this place.
This is my WIP dodge charger, it's taken a LONG time so far, but every time I think it's finished I notice something missing/wrong.

Working without accurate blueprints was a nightmare, but I think I've cracked it now, I managed to find some here and was pleased that they wern't a million miles off what I've built.

well damn dude welcome to the forums......incredible job..i love that scene, the modeling looks great

[DodgeBoy]

Is it just me or the pic is not working?

[DrumBoPing]

must be just u...u have fire fox?

[DodgeBoy]

Must be my firewall then. Just got it to work and damn that is nice!

[peacetaker]

damn dude that thing is sweet! hock:
mind showing wireframe's and have you got the engine modeled too??

[o.j]

Looks great. Just one problem though, the road seems a bit too light compared to the background.

Keep up the good work man.

Amazing renders and modeling!
Although on the last one, the wheels are either sinking into the ground, or the car is floating in the air or something like that. Not sure what it is, but it looks weird.

Welcome to the forum! I've admired your work on this car somewhere else before and I must say that this is simply beatiful... Muscle cars never die :wink:

[NightEye]

Wow! Just wow! 8o
I really like that 2nd render, lovely work with the enlightened road, really adds something!

[Johnas]

hock: Very nice renders!

[Zachary]

looks very goog, though those rims are ugly/unrealistic.

[size=9px]*that car needs some Magnum 500 road wheels.*[/size] :wink:

[123abc]

That looks really good, but the rims should go. Do some aluminum slotted mags, that'd look pwn on it.


Otherwise, I can't see anything I don't like about it. Welcome to the forums!

[Coaster]

Thanks for the warm welcome guys, and the useful comments,
Recently did the rear seat, 2 leather settings, I can't decide whick on works the best, the new one is more accuarate, but I thing the old' wrong' one looks a little nicer??



o.j, The background is still very much WIP, but your right the road is a bit washed out, and a bit low res, I'll get it fixed soon, although I'm trying to go for that kind of 60s sunbleached look.

Evans, I think the problem is the shadows aren't gathering properly where the tyre meets the road, cheers for the help!

Zachary & 123abc, yeah the rims are a bit wrong, they're off a Lola T70 and were build a long time ago, looks like it's about time for some new ones then! I think the blueprints I eventually found were yours Zachary big thanks!

Peacetaker, no engine yet, that's going to be a MISSION.

Here are some wires.



All crits and comments welcome.

[palat]

That upholstery rocks.
Can u show us an unsmoothed wire of the bodyshell?
No crits from what i see.
(first img does not show)

[Coaster]

Here's the unsmoothed mesh, I'll check the first pic's link.

WOW! That leather material is insane! I was staring at the pictures trying to figure out if they're real or not.

[NightEye]

The new one is too blurry, I think that's the problem..
But wow, the material is great!!! 8o

[SSJ3_Vegeta]

That is simply awesome. It actually took me a while to figure out that those pics of the back seat were the model.

[Coaster]

Glad you like the render, it took about 45 minutes! and the shadow needs softening, dammit.

Credit for the leather texture is really just down to the texture I found

I might have a higher res one somewhere...
