Dodge Dakota club-cab

Here is a model that you don't see very often. I have a lot to play with yet, but it's a start.

Here is another update. I will try to get as much done on this one as possible, but I am dissapointed and will redo it. But I improve everytime I make a vehicle, so I will do as much as I can on this one before starting over.

Well, I said I would redo it.
I am nearly completed with the front bumper, and still have some tweaking before completing the grille. The hood needs a lot of tweaking, and I want more detail in the hood emblem.
Thats it so far.

I noticed that I after I rendered. Wasn't really a problem, it was just pushed down. Pulled it back up and now no problems.

I am actualy going for accuracy on this one, so I have posted this on a Dakota forum that I am an active member of and have already make adjustments to their say. So far as shown it is nearly as acurate as I can get it, but I still do see some minor touches that need to be done.

Worked on the fenders. I just got back from WeFest (huge outdoor country music festival), and havn't had much time to work on it, and next weekend is Top Fuel Nationals in Brainerd so I won't have much time then either. I am shooting for some time tonight, and tuesday. Slowly but surely...I'll get there.







I have no idea what is causing the black dot on the fender.
At the very front corner of the fender, near the grille, there are two polies that look like they are two three sided polies making a square, the truth is they are both 4 sided polies and make a smooth shape.
