Lotus Elise - XSImatrix

[XSImatrix]

well this whole time i have been messegaing from school, am back now and starting to get into the flow of things.

I sent icekid a messege about the elise, should of also asked him about exige blueprints(although i think their is none that are close to accurate), i will be waiting on him, as for now, I am going to model the calipers.

any suggestions? I was thinkin Techart, but since its not a porsche it would not suit, maybe brembo since thats the only others I know of, their has to be something else out their???

You could try making a Mercedes C111 IID *

That's the one that looks the best (yes, there are at least 4-5 different designs in C111 series)

Would be hard but also exclusive cause hey, Merc only build them for testpurpose

Nice wheel

Brakes
Brembo
Willwood (i´ve got prints on them i you whant, and on there site they have a 360 rotation on it very helpfull)
Move It (I think thats their name)
AP Racing

I think you should model the very nice MB CL AMG thats a really cool car or the new porsche carrera s (or the new turbo don´t think there is so much ref pictures of it. But the spy pictures I´ve seen of the cool car is great

thanks.



Its a ELISE72 anyways, and i need some ref pics. Actually I need alot of them, areas on the car i can see b/c theirs no top view, and I need help for certain shapes. If you guys show me a site that has alot of pics ill add it to my list of Ref.


LIST OF REF

http://www.seriouswheels.com/ (not to many pics, about 3)
http://members.fortunecity.com/freec...wallpapers.htm (same pics as previous )
http://www.car-desktop.com/wallpapers//Lotus (no elise pics, but great 1600x1200 exige photos)

meh, cant find anything good right now, gonna go have dinner, ill check back soon guys!

one last thing, heres something cool i found, the elise colour chart. (its a little small in res)

[tom120934]

Oh, what a sexy choice !

Thinking about start modelling one, a few days ago. Still not convinced for me, but for you, just go ahead ! it will be great model as always from you !

Your work will even act as a target for my elise/exige if I start (maybe the exige 240R, for exclusivity )

Too bad you're doing the Mk2
Anyway, good luck

[ronaro]

shadow if u want a rare elise then do a 340R those are hyper rare and quite unique..technically its not an elise but it shares the elise platform...
