1997 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

This is a project I started Thursday night, and I didn't expect to get this far so fast. This is made in Zmodeler on laptop (btw thanks in General Discussion) with bp's from here and is fairly low poly. I am keeping the front separate so when I start on the back it isn't so cluttered. Please C+C welcome

Looks like a good start
Just be sure to put on flat shading (press q) if you haven't done your normals yet (which you haven't).

Keep it up

Thanks for your reply, do I know you from Racer forum?

Anyways, I'm not much into normals, all I did was Surface-> normals-> calculate and with flat shading it looks blocky. (see pic)

I added more roof and piece of back bumper.

Well, you got to detach parts if you want a sharp edge, etc.. But I recommend first finish the model, then do some normals

You could know me from RSC, I've been active for a few months there.

Flatshade looks good too

Please post in flatshade, as you can't see anything like this if you haven't done normals yet

@DBP: He can't, he is using ZModeler.

Sorry, guys for that last pic, I was about to go to town. Here's another, it is silver and flatshaded. I will take a few of the old ones off.

DrumBoPing: I try to go for best quality/lowest polygon

Sorry for not posting in a few weeks, but there is minimal progress. I can't gurantee a date yet, because there are lots of things to do around the house. Still, please post because I will be on the forum every day.

I am really sorry for not posting, but it has been busy, I hope you understand.

I originally planned on making this for Racer free car simulation, but I am no good at .ini's for that game so when I finish it I can release it publicly.

I am going to try to check the forum every day now as things have slowed down.

Hey, I'm back. I've had some harder days since I've last been around, family issues.

Anyways, here is an update of the car. Minimal progress, but better than nothing I guess.

Edit: Added wing.
