Toyota Supra

So this is my first try at a car (actually second, i was trying to model my car, 04 wrx, but couldnt find many good blues for it), and my third 3-D model all together, im a senior in college, modeling for fun, I did this today, took about 4 hours, maya and mental ray render

c&c is really welcome




EDIT: Here is my wireframe, i read somewhere that you can actually render your real wireframe (not a wireframe texture), any body have any ideas?

also, i think my biggest problem is that my wireframe isn't as clean as most....feel free to rip this model apart, i need it, haha, thanks

well you have some edges that are way too close to each other and that is why your having some pinches in your clay renders. Now you have two options and that would be fixing you edges and spacing them out or you can follow the supra tutorial found on this site by redstar it will give you a head start then you can finish it as you progress.

Here is my old wire. Welcome to the forum aswell.

Sweet, thank you both, I think maybe that I will follow your (redstars) tut, just to get a better grasp on cleaner modeling.....

btw, that is an amazing model, I take it it was in MAX?

Alrighty time for bed....im not gonna sleep thinking bout this project

oh yeah, quick question for you redstar, would you mind if I used your wires for blues?? or what blues did you use ,cause i have ones that are not the same model....no biggy either way, something tells me the tut will be very helpfull

ok, restarted, here is a fender, just looking for some C&C on how my wire looks

when i smooth i get bumps on the front side of the wheel well, any suggestions?

well ermmi dont know where the problem is but i guessed it and marked it with red ...i hope it is helpful.make the wire like i showed with red line.And also u can check RedStar's wire if u want.His models are always bump-free...
Good luck

[ender85]

yeah, the problem with that, is the lines on the car arent really like that, i mean for the sake of being clean it makes since....but for the whole following your ref's this line is a prob....i might berak it into two lines mabey that will smooth it out.
