Porsche 911 carrerra S ( just started )

[BuDWiZe]

here are the beginnings of a model of the 991 carerra S ( will be 2005 model )
This car will be going into a simulation game as a mod. Im pretty new to modelling and wonder if someone can tell me if i do anything wrong in the frontend so far or are there any better more optimal ways i could do something. Cheers,\
BuD

Reduce the amount of polygons, it is very saturated in your wires. Unless you get every point perfect you will get a lot of bumps from having a lot of polys. If its for a game then i think it is necassary to have as little as possible, nfs mw cars are around 30 - 40 k polygons i hear. Anyways good luck and keep it up.

thanks andy ill try and remove some poly's

[BuDWiZe]

Hi andy hows this.
I think maybe i can do a cpl more near the lights to.

[XSImatrix]

remember , games can handle tri(3) sides poly gon, dont be afraid to use them so you will not have to add a adge lopp where it not nesesery.

[BuDWiZe]

hi xsimatrix what is a adge lopp? im pretty new to max and well this is my second ever model

[RedStar]

Your polyplacment is unequal. you will have a bumpy model i promis you that

[BuDWiZe]

Hey redstar what can i do to make them more equal

i only just start to learn 3D modelling.

[revelli]

i dont think so, that this technique is for beginers, just look at the amouth of polies on the start of the hood, it will be DAMN hard to model
but as you wish, anyway nice job on the front

[majestic]

Are you making this for a game or just rendering?

[BuDWiZe]

I have lessoned alot of the poly. Here is a render with no smoothing currently on.

[BuDWiZe]

majestic: am going to be putting it into a game as a Mod
I will be aiming for 12-15,000 poly for the car

[revelli]

sweet 10-12000 POLIES 8o 8o, thats cool
can you show the wire pls?

[BuDWiZe]

hey revelli i couldnt work out how to render and have it show the wireframe bu took a scr shot again

[revelli]

you SHOULD cut down some edges on the side and add more on the hood

[BuDWiZe]

cool got a bit of help from a guy on IRC and have cut down poly's on the side and even a few more around the lights.

will hopefully show a pic tomorrow arvo of a much improved front
