I like the model, and also your choice of a particular car maybe never 3d modeled until now!

let's wait so see it finished!

Ciao!

sweet, now the door looks prefect now get to some details!

Thanks to Prikye, feral1, alanguer & Silent][Moebius for your comments. Before going to some details, here's a test render with some mats. As usual, renders are done with YafRay.

PS : Remembering I've started to add details : I modelled a simple, old-looking tire, the same way I described in the tutorial I posted on my site. Almost not viewable with this lighting, will do better next time

Thanks Jintonic for your comment

No updates, only new renders. Please C&C !

[tom120934]

Here it come some details ! Modified the back to let room for gearbox, rearlights, and exhaust pipes.

Please C&C !

great car dude, i like the choice too, i just think needs more chanfering but that´s a great modeling...

[Silent][Moebius]

this baby is coming along very nicely. keep adding details, it's the small things that make it special

[tom120934]

Thanks brunoqs and Silent][Moebius for your comments.

brunoqs : are talking about every edge or just some ?

Silent : oh yes, I keep adding details, here come the sidemirrors.

New cam angle, some bugs to tweak : middle of the windshield, material on the headlights covers. If anyone see another one, please tell me !

[brunoqs]

just some edges =], on the back hood and at the doors , but maybe its just coz i like edges over chanfereds =D. anyway GREAT modeling =] keep it up.

[DbblGlock]

yep i agree with brunoqs, very nice indeed, and a great model.
are you going to be making an interior for it? coz its cool and deserves one =)

[Silent][Moebius]

dunno about the headlight cover material, it looks too reflective to me. maybe the output(the reflection) should be a bit transparent too.

[tom120934]

Thanks for comments !

brunoqs, it will be useful for me if you can check out the lines needing more chamfering in your opinion.

allowit, I agree with you : it should be better with an interior but the problem is I lack of good refpics (both int & ext, in facts) Only 2 in my hand, from a test in french magazin "Sport Auto" (issue of March 2006) If I can get any good set of refpics, I will give a try to an interior.

Silent][Moebius, I think you're right, I will try this way during my next work session.

Here's a side render with the latest updates.

[Silent][Moebius]

i tried looking up some ref images for this car... really really hard :S

don't forget the sun roof

[Masakari987]

Model's Looking really good. Keep it up.

[MARTS]

Thanks Silent][Moebius for spending some time for me. I believe you when you say it's hard But I did not understand what you mean with "sun roof". Can you explain it to a poor not-english-as-mother-tongue guy ?

Thanks Masakari987 and MARTS, yes I keep going. I played with YafRay and my scene setup to achieve some preliminary studio style. Here's what I got so far.

[Silent][Moebius]

this project is coming along very nicely the last render needs more light htough, so you can see all the details.

concerning the sun roof, it's a small rectangular opening in the roof of a car that can be opened. while i was looking for some ref pics, i stumbled across a picture that showed this car with such a sun roof, i haven't seen it on other models though.

[Masakari987]

Looks pretty good. I like the visual look to it, but Silent][Moebius is right, it does hide some of the details.
Those settings will look great for a final render. Although the edges of the chrome areas at the back of roof may need some more AA or something, as they look a little rough.
