Peterbilt 359

[ultramarine]

Still working on this one. There's no running gear and the trailer is a 10-minute sketch. I would appreciate any help with photos of rear axles and suspension cause I haven't find any good ones.

Oliver.

O man looks beautiful. Ill try to find a pic of the rear axel.

[revelli]

what is the polycount for this model? im gues about 1milion

[SDKustoms]

Very nice. Its a rather short trailer though, any plans for a larger (full length) trailer?

SDK...

2 revelli:
The polycount is about 500 000 for now on. But there are some good places to save polys, so I'm planning to keep the tractor under 600 000. The running gear and interior wouldn't be as smooth as exterior though or my machine would never render it with materials.

2 SDKustoms:
I have plans for several trailers after completing the tractor. Difficult to say which exactly, still get no blues of acceptable quality.

Now working on the engine and suspension doing a little texturing in the meantime.

Thank everybody for interesting in my work and comments.

Thank you, man! I've got the idea of the rear suspension and getting to work on it right now. BTW, nice work under the hood!

[ultramarine]

Thanks to polarexpress17 and a smaaall photo from TOCMP the suspension is basically done. Still wondering though how the drive shafts go and how low gear-box is situated :?.

[polarexpress17]

you pretty much got the right idea, but heres a pic of some eaton 3.55 ratio rears where the driveshaft goes in on my real truck, and a gladhand pic

[ultramarine]

After long time messing up with all that under-the-hood stuff ( no bps! :x ) and making a sleeper, got a bit tired of modelling. Now unwrapiing the cab and sleeper. The materials are only temporaries used for tweaking the maps, the render is quick, so no critics on them, please!

Haha really cool. I love the Jokes on the bakc and side of the truck.
Looks very nice and a lot of details
But you should get rid of the Standard Max Chrome and this ugly reflection map with the lake

[xptux]

wow, thats a great model man. keep it up

[ultramarine]

Just a quick render to show that the project is alive. Still much to complete...

[DrumBoPing]

[ultramarine]

A couple of current state renders. As you see I also started a towtruck version.
