ok heres where im at so far. I still havent fixed the errors nighteye mentioned so if you see this and see the same error, dont tell me because I know. However, if you see a new error, let me nkow so I can fix it as well with the others

ohh i noticed I have to fix that line in the middle of the bottom intake. It starts going inwards and then outwards. I didnt notice it

Ok so I dont know how to clay render in maya so im doing an occlusion render. Im stopping right here for now since I have alot of homework so If there are any problems besides the ones nighteye aready stated, let me know so when I get back, I can start fixing my errors. Thanks

clay render is simple just slap on the default lambert and render with hdri or a light dome. on the other hand how do you do an ambient occlusion render?:?

[jaisonjones]

thats even easier. select all items and on your layers menu at the top, there should be to radio buttons (Display & Render). CLick render and create new layer. Right click on the layer and it should be preset-->occlusion. On that layer you created, there are three icons. Click on the one closet to the layer name (layer1) and that automatically sets up mental ray for you.

i like this model dude... not tryig materials yet? i'd like to see it with materials... looks like a very nice modeled car dude

[feral1]

coming along nicely, keep up the good work

[younglion]

thanx jaison ill try that.

[clix101]

Looks great, occlusion works, but you'll need a darker materials

[jaisonjones]

either that or i will have to finish the side window. In maya if you use the standard occlusion no matter what mat you have, it whitens it out. I have to learn rendering. I nkow how to do a hdri but im horrible with materials since im a Noob. Sometimes it makes me wish i learned maxs lol

I learnt the very basics (what are verts, edges, polys, when to use extrude, weld verts) in Maya, then switched to max. Took getting used, but it's possible. I thought the buttons were all named a bit more advanced, and hidden in all those modifiers, but once you get that, it's just the same.

Heres a shot with the rims on the car

[jaisonjones]

Ok heres a render of my my rim Its a small update from the rims above thats on the car but its still small. Ill prob leave my rim like this for now. Maybe ill throw a different center cap but for now i think ill go with this. Updates are going to be slow for a little while because i have 5 weeks left in the semester to finish 4 books and write reports on them. Damn marketing class. O well C&C welcomed

[ColdFlame]

the only thing that i dont love on your model is the air scoof on the side skirt ...

[jaisonjones]

Yes I know the intake is off. its curves at the wrong spot and its tooo sharp in the inner portion. I cant find no good references on the intake. Thats actually my next question 2 anyone who knows, is the intake connected to the Q.P. & how far or deep does the inside of the intake go. anyone wjp knows, please post also, if anyone has good intake shots, post

The only thing wich looks wrong to me is your tyres. Are those susposed to be such thin?

[jaisonjones]

nope, thats just the thread, i still have to do the side walls. i hae modeling habbit of jumping all around the place without finishin up. yea they are thin but i might keep them thin, just make it a little bigger so i can make the rims 19"
