Light is right : Ariel Atom II

[tom120934]

Here's my entry in the contest with one of the most extreme lightweight cars. As no blueprint is available, I started modeling with the chassis. Tires are placeholder to show the size of the car.

Comments & critics will be appreciated !

Lookin good so far, i am sure you know but if you go to there website they have the front,back, and side views so that may help out a lil. Also i must say good choice of car, its a very cool car.

Woo tom this contest might be light vehicles but if you continue doing all this detail your vehicle will be kinda heavy lol.

Nice start man

Thanks for all your kind words. Yes carfreak I know about side / front / rear / top photos, I'm using it for very global proportions. But anything else is only done by refpics.

Here's a little update with some new parts modeled and some materials. Sorry for the small size of the render, no time to let Blender compute bigger image before going to bed.

hmm i'm really looking forward as to how far you are going with this one in terms of detail. you can really see almost everything of the suspension electronics ect because there are almost no bodypanels
