Seat Toledo - SMCars

darth carth · #1 (**permalink**) 04-03-2006

Hello I'm just new around here, found this place when I was looking for blueprints of the new Audi A6 Avant... but enough about that.

I see that people here are really interested in car models and also offer huge ammount of help to people in need and I really like that so I finally decided to sign up here...

Now I made this thread for a model I've been working on for the past 2 weeks... it's my very first model so go easy on me. lol
I decided to make this car because my dad owns it, wanted to create it so that he would become even a little bit interested in this

But I hate to say it but this project is cancelled from now on, due to the fact that my dad had an accident in it... nothing serious, but we will have to buy a new one. So somewhere I didn't enjoy working on it that much anymore and thats why I cancelled it.

this is what it was supposed to become, for those who don't know a seat toledo:

Personaly I think I got pretty close so far... also keep in mind that this is my first attempt to model something.

Now don't except anymore work on this car... I just posted it here so that people could point out some things that could improve my new project (a Audi A6 Avant 2006), so any comments would be very helpfull

Thanks

The major thing, is accuracy. The front looks almost perfect, but the sides have some sort of line on them (the real car doesn't have it).
Also, the place where your windows go look too smooth, but that's just a matter of chamfering (I presume you are using Max..).
I like the rim too, but the spokes should be attached to the rim.

I can only say: Keep practising, I think you're very capable of modeling some nice models

Oh, and ofcourse, welcome to the forums

yeah about that door, that was uhm ... a mistake. lol
I imagened it like that, then I took a look at our own car and saw how far I was off, just didn't get around fixing it I guess.

Then the rims... heh I know what you mean and I also tried to fix it myself, but the points of the circle part didn't line up with the spokes and it gave a very bad result. So I left it like that...

As for the windows I'm not sure what you mean exactly... do you mean the edge of the window, where it touches the body work? humm didn't notice that before but yeah you're right. That looks to smooth...

oh yeah forgot to mention I used 3dsmax 6 for that...

Allright

As for the windows: these are some spots that are just a bit too smooth

Good luck with the A6!

oh yeah those... well if you take a close look at the last picture you'll see that those are now nice corners. The windows you showed were from before I knew about that chamfer technique (just shows how noob-ish I still am

)

and thx, I hope that the A6 is gonna work out great... I'll make sure to post pictures of it

its look great though, those windows need work still after the chamfering. Show us some wires.
