carerra gt speed modeling

[yacinedelucia]

hello there ...it's my second wip post here...and hope everyone is doing fine...
i have just modeled a new car...as a friend was always asking about the minimal
time i could spend to make a car( don't know why he asked about a car specialy)..
so i challenged my self for a carerra gt, (as his last client was asking for
a carrera ..he is a pro working in a commercials company)...it's absolutly not my choice ..as if i had a client like his ,and this is the result...i 've got already some comments from him.
like...not accurate not detaild too much bumps and has a strong uncomplete feeling too...but i've done this in less than two days of work ...about 16 hours of contiunous work from the first polygon to rendering...that saved me a bit ...
sorry if you find that this is a disaster that should never be showen (i know that you guys
are the best car modlers on the net)

Well with 2 days that is a bit of a rush. And I agree with your friend it does have quite a few drawbacks. Personally the Carerra GT has become to common to me. No Ive not seen one but when your a supercar enthusiast like me and your always looking for more pictures of your favorite supercars.. and you just find picture after picture of these things.. they become tiresome.

Problems :

1. The overall car size seems small, this thing seems like its a kitcar of a Carrerra GT rather than a GT. And when I say kit car I mean the size is way off. It looks comparable to say a Porsche Boxster.

2.Youve got the overall front of the car way to pointy. Also the height of the hood is a bit high.I ran into a similar problem when I was modeling the Lotus Elise GT1 with having the front too high which through off the look of the car for me.

3. The rear fenders are way off and again emphasize a smaller car design. In any time you want to recreate a car , be it your own design or an existing its best to always put in the body lines of the car. Ie the seperate car parts, bumpers, fenders, etc. Without them this too adds to the feel that one is looking at an cheap knockoff fiberglass body of a Carrerra GT.

Anyhow I hope I wanst to harsh, just my 2 cents

thx alot ...having advices and comments is always something extremly helpful...
what you said is true ...absolutely true...and you wasn't harsh at all...the model quality
is really bad...but did not want to spend more than 2 days on it ...and for the measurments
i think that's because of the camera focal ...the model is just as long as the blue print is...
or maybe there is something wrong with my blueprint(stolen from smcars.net).
but i must check all this out as soon as i can even if it was a speed challenge stuff...
