Corvette Stingray C3

[Icekid84]

Not to shabby. There is one edge that stuck out to me, along the bottom behind the front fender, but other than that nothing too crazy to cause a problem

About pictures : even if there is no Vettes, take as many pictures as you can and please share them in the photography section , always fun to see car show pictures

Small update:

worked a bit more on the back tidying it up, adding the cap, and then a small bit on the rear spoiler but halfway through i decided to work on the doors a bit more

So i then made the handles, key slot and wing mirrors:

More work on the rear today:

Done:

Flag emblems
Rear lights
Rear exhaust
Plate slot
Rear bumpers
Extended the front out a bit more after matching a side reference it was a little short
General tweaking

So some renders and wires below for that, but also im kind of confused on the text emblem, im guessing use the text editor, what font is it?

[Johnas]

Not sure what font it is but you can always trace it with splines. Lots of work but will pay in the end I'm sure

Very nice progress so far also, looking better and better.

Only note would be that dent on middle of the bonnet

[tigerboyce]

Cheers, That bit on the bonnet isn't a dent, its just where it goes into a V and is obviosly sloped down at the same time. Combined with a rough camera angle it just looks that way

Yep looks like i have to go down the spline route, i have been searching for a good hour or so and cant get anything

[Johnas]

Ah well that explains

Splines are tricky in Max, needs lot of tweaking. Try polymodeling if splines wont work

UPDATE:

Worked a bit more on the roof today, I got in with the top removable bit of the roof fine and it does have a solid underneath too, just not detailed at all. I'm still undecided on whether I want to go ahead with an interior yet, I may just do some basic seats and a steering wheel and have slightly darker windows .

Anyway here's some shots of what I got up to, Roof, bit of the interior roof, and then the Emblems that i did the other day, i think they came out pretty well

For the rear 'corvette' one i used Mangal font and just stretched it and moved it about until it looked right, but for the 'stingray' and '454' emblems i just used a standard font with a load of tweaking on it in spline stage, the stingray one was obviously the most work...

Im going to try and get the model stage fully complete by this weekend so ill push it this week to get it done soon


So here's the shots of the roof, Tsplit, and the emblems:

Really looking great. I became interested and tried to find ya a eps to make the correct emblem from but no luck. Maybe some good oh fashion bevels will help yours, looking great

[Johnas]

Wow getting better and better, good work with those emblems

[tigerboyce]

Heres more updateness:

Worked on bulking out the interior, nothing major, just filling it in and getting a basic shape going. I have also done the same to the insides of the doors and wheel arches.

Also added windows and a rear view mirror.

Oh and i bevelled the emblems too
