Lovley that´s all I can say :wink:
I just whonder how it would like if you did more details, because you said that you would only do some, not all

[NightEye]

Even more??
Can't wait to see it with materials, though you'll probably wait with that some time

[Lem]

insane detail hock:

good, i am only doing low to mid poly stuff.
Still remember how my Simca made working at the computer feeling like swimming in thick oil.

I hope you have a lot of RAM

one word WOW!! i would love to see this bike finished. i am a big lover of street bikes. but i hate the fact that i suck at making them.lol

8o Fantastic modelling, keep it up please.

Cheers for looking,

I have been working on this solid for most of the day so I am gonna take a break and do something else for a while

Holy cow 8o

[lhnova]

here is the latest render, just what the whole bike looks like and seeing that I got sick of working on that blasted engine block I decided to start the air intake port and the whole steering/handle bars section of the bike, should be fun..





Hope you like

WOW what more can I say, looking real nice. put some nice material on it :twisted:

i must ask u one thing!!! how do u start the engine block? u got any god tut? i tryed many times but dont now how to start and how u do the horisontl lines and pin bolt pipes to work with the block?? please share..

[lhnova]

well I just started with the side wall, the bit with the pattern on it on the left, then I worked from there, its kinda hard to explain, I don't really know what you need to know, I can explain accurately how I modelled certain parts of it but with a complex mesh such as this there is a lot to do to make it, I have to say that I found it exremely to get done, definitely not an easy thing to model..and unfortunately the hardest part is still to come, the bottom part of the engine block/gearbox mechanism...

Let me know if I can help out more specivically

Cheers for the comments

Hmmm i dont now how to start but as u can see in this pic! sorry if ur not ok for me to use it? but all the holes and things is that boolean thingy u are using and how u get all pipes and boxes to smooth together with everything or is it just cut out in mesh and extruded?

[lhnova]

well as you can see from all my models I allways work with meshsmooth and a fully (or as much as possible) quad mesh, so most of the circular extrusions on this model where made by cutting around a cylinder and then exturding the edges to form the pipe, for some areas that were just too hard to model a cylinder I just made it a seperate element and moved it into place, the pattern on the side was fist cut with a single edge and then I chamfered it to make the horisontal and vertical bars, then I extruded them. The rounded sections of the bottom piece are fully modelled into the mesh, its all one flowing mesh, thats partly what made it so tricky. I will post a wire of this section if you want..

Nova

[sesim]

ye please do that! and if u want in many different views in the areas that are tricky...

thanx

[sesim]

hmm got one question... when i cut with cut modifier it will create a snap line automaticly but when i click on next point he takes it away so when i cut a cirle out it is not attached to the object att all??? it waswnt like this in the beginnig1 so now i have to make lines after i have cut the hole out grrrr

[sesim]

if u got the time can u make a simple tut were u cut a cylinder out of another cylinder???? should help very much!!! :twisted:

[lhnova]

ok first update since I had a major problem with my project, but I won't bother you with the details because all is good again now...too tired to write much about the update..its pretty self evident I think...lol...and I will post some other renders showing some more detail latter



Hope you like what you see...
