Audi Q7

[Scott99]

heya all, its been a while since ive made anything in 3dsmax, so thought id make another car haha... but decided since all ive done have been sports cars, ill try an SUV for a change.

i know theres not much to look at yet with where im at so far, the rest of the body is modeled just no extrusions or chamfers so it wouldnt look pretty haha... but if anything is wrong, please inform me, as i only have 42 pictures of the Audi Q7... is all i found doing a search on google and yahoo.



p.s. sorry for no wireframe yet

p.s.again.lol.: the reason why the body has material is so you can see the fine creases on the hood and fender... clay render you couldnt see them (just so you dont think they arnt there haha)

looks fine so far get a wireframe and a clay so far i cannot see any mistakes looks ok

not many views because its 4:40am here and i have to get up for school at 7am (college) lol... so hopefully these are sufficient

(btw, sloppy wireframe = shows how long its been since ive modeled a car haha)

Looks like a great start, waiting for more updates keep it up

[mpfive]

thats a quite interesting project.. waiting to c more...

[Scott99]

thanks guys

got a question, any of you know a good tutorial on displacement maps? everytime i try to add a displacement map it makes whatever its on all messed up lol... and ive seen people use displacement maps to make the tires to thier cars... which looks better than what i usually do

heres an update, i know the center two things of the grill are closer than the others but ill play with it, also the thickness of the verticle bars... still messing with

-pic with the blue = fixed the bottom lip thing lol, it was way inaccurate, it still has some inaccuracies but atleast it is somewhat what it should look like lol

[Scott99]

wheel lol hmmm, see what i mean about the tire... not a pretty sight to see... oh, btw its 3dsmax 5 if thats why no one answered about the displacement map

[lotar]

I think this line (attachment) should be little sharper, other than that it's ok (rim), bt the tyre... search some tutorial on it

[clix101]

forgot to attach the attachment lol lotar

[Scott99]

minor update lol... i know i need to mess with the line going down the side... didnt notice it til i rendered... but anyhow, here it is...

btw, does anyone have high res pics of the headlights of this? i dont think mine are correct that i made

[Scott99]

did some more chamfering lol... not happy with the back of my model

Looks really clean and smooth great work, keep it up

too bad the renders are so small... you can't see too much on them

but i can see that your seams should be a bit sharper (bottom A pillar for example) and i guess that the top corner of your headlights isn't sharp enough either adn on the very bottom of the front bumper i think your air intakes should be way thinner

but aside from that the car looks great!

i think youre right, i just made a compesition with a picture of the real car... and the headlight corner should be sharper... not to mention the seam for my hood is too close to the corner according to pictures of the Q7. guess i used the wrong blueprint (one thats off a bit) lolol about my seams needing to be sharper... i made then that rounded for a reason

I love it, it looks awesome

[Catlin]

I want this pimped
