[92F]

Hi, im very new to Zmod and only know the basics. I have a few tutorials, but am stuck with extruding/shaping the car. Heres what ive got so far.
(i am trying to keep this lowish polly)

Looks like a great polyplacement sofar
Can't wait to see it extruded
Only one thing, your door has (IMO) too many vertical polyrows.. (So there are too many vertices in the horizontal direction on the door).. You could cut some there

Keep it up, looks really nice sofar

Well I just don't like when people are posting flat surfaces and calls it a WIP. It makes me really angry...

A WIP is a Work In Progress. So even if he has only planned to do, the work is in progress, so it's a WIP.
You'll just have to live with that :wink:
And besides, some newer modelers need help with the extruding, so posting a flat surface could help themselfs :wink:
And btw, just look at his polyplacement: That's a piece of nice work too. So that makes it a real WIP for sure :wink:

Well if we are talking right now about his poly placement I must say that over the wheels polyplacement is a bit chaotic. He said that he want to make it low poly. I suggest to try reduce number of polies on the doors.

Thanks for the positive crit. Ill get the door sorted out and try and tidy up above the wheel arches.
Extruding is my main problem. Ive tried it several times and just doesnt look right.

well extruding is no biggie, really, after having the poly's layed out.. just move the verts on the X-Axis, whatever to move from side to side, and make the vert correspond to the top, front, or back view...

Yeh i know how to extrude and i have a couple of tuts showing me how. like selecting a buch of pollies then moving them as an object etc, but to me it just doesnt look right at all.
