Shelby Cobra Revisited

[sarN]

Hi, some people might remember doing a shelby cobra awhile back. I've started over multiple times, and now I'm finally finishing it.

[sarN]

closer pic of the engine, still lots of work to do on the rest of the car, a lot of the engine parts arent there and most is just made up, but im completed there anyways.

[NightEye]

Two airfilters? and all startplugs are cramped on each other?
No further crits, looks perfect IMO

[sarN]

lol yep ill post the two pics that i was using for reference some cobras use 2 air filters, i think it looks cooler lol. Yeah the start plugs are pretty cramped arent they, heres one of the pics.

[NightEye]

Ooh, okay Just thought it wasn't supposed to be like that.. I think it's weird
But okay, then no crits at all

The 2 air filters are for the dual carbs bolted to the manifold, and the bunch of spark plugs cramed together is actually the distributor cap. :wink:

Really nice work!

[sarN]

wow, havent updated in a while. Well, theres some new pictures...

[MurDerDolly]

Nice. What is that HDRI what you use ?

[NightEye]

Holy ****! 8o Very nice to see you picked up this fantastic model again!
I'd kiss you if I could :mrgreen:

[sarN]

MurderDolly: Thanks, the HDRI im pretty sure is called judenplatz.hdr or something when u save it. I'll post the file since i dont know where i found it... Hope its ok with NightEye.

NightEye: Wow, thanks a ton! Really! You really make me want to finish this right now But don't worry, i will be finishing it soon. Do you think that the tires are ok? Also, what else should i add? Things to come : New rims materials, side glass panels off the windshield, rear view mirror, hood.. holder upper things, the rest of the interior, the thing on the back for the license plate, the bolts on the inside of those front intake holes, possibly the air filter box (is that what it is in that picture?)

ell anyways, still lots to do!

Add the gearshifter :mrgreen:
And btw, we haven't seen a pic from the rear.. So I don't know if anything is missing there :roll:
Oh, and ofcourse a fuelcap

EDIT:
About the tires: Maybe add something to the sidewall. It's quite empty now..

Dang, thats sweet...

[sarN]

Thanks SDCustoms And NightEye, ok, heres the HDRI. Ill do a back render now, its pretty plain, and i see so many pictures of different cobras (all replicaes of course) that i don't really know what the trunk looks like... So i did my own version of it. (Need a rubber seal on it) After I'm done everything, i want to make some sort of cool scene for it. Thanks also NightEye for telling me some other things, i really gotta get on that gascap! (i love how they look, but there arent too many photos of them) Anyways...
render coming soon

ugh, hdr extension not allowed... ioll find the site later

[NightEye]

HDR files now allowed
As for a fuelcap.. Not many pics indeed, but I did have a pic of one (not stock I guess..)

Ah yes, here it is

[sarN]

thanks nighteye, ill definitely use that cus i want to more work on the engine! I think mine is a little too empty still. Here's the back render, i didnt put the interior color in the back by accident. Does anyone know how to UVW map this car? I would just want the 2 racing stripes right down the middle. Three things... HDR image, back render, and the best gascap picture i have. Later guys, thanks for the comments! The back is pretty empty huh...

[NightEye]

Hmm.. I don't think you've mentioned them, but you haven't got those 'hooks' on the back, which you have on the front
And I think after that the back is done
Looks sweet already btw

[MurDerDolly]

Thanks for the HDRI!

[sarN]

MurderDolly: No problemo

NightEye: Yeah, i think i will put those on, since the back looked a little empty. I just got confused because some models have completely different things on them! I will add those though, shouldnt be much more than a simple mirror copy

Well im going dirtbiking right now... but once i get home i hope to work on this instead of doing homework. (there will be updates during the week)

Cheers all!
