Well nothing to major in modeling done on this car. Most work (when Ive worked on it lately) has been on the texture. I'm happy to say I now have the carbon the way I want it. I might turn down the golden underlayer a tad.. but then again its how the car looks outside from the old NFS2 showcase shots.

Whats next is to perhapse change out the tread and sidewall, texture the engine, interior,, put a bottom on it, put some more interior parts inside. After this car I will probably touch upon my Nazca C2. it will get updated chamfers, mapping, completely new interior and seats, rounder wheels . The Esprit V8 is curently done except for the new dash bezel I built, it needs to be detailed and mapped. and then I need to remap the entire car so it can be in the same league as the Aston and GT1.

It's too dark, can't see anything.

Looks great Icekid. Not a well known car but it still does the job

and no I wont make it larger (that would be your next bicker I imagine ) Anyhow not till I get more done or I like the shot a lot..

Stew : its well known enough.. at least to me ;D Anyhow Ill upload some shots from the NFS2 showcase.

Here be the shots from the NFS2 style of the car. This was the first incarnation of the car, since then it has been refitted with different body panels changing the overall look. The carbon is no longer exposed, which is fine for this car since it was never meant to be stylish like other cars of this time.

Anyhow like I said I still got to tune my color and tones.

gee...i remember all the other cars that were in NFS2, but i didnt know this was in it :?...i remember it from GT2 instead

great job on it though

i would like to do a Lotus V8 but im content with my R33 and my Civic Pikes Peak right now

[Icekid84]

small update, I decided my carbon was TOO large so I created a new pattern and dowsized it to the correct size needed which gave a lot better results I think , especially for 1024. Still a bit too much gold.. but the texture looks fine in viewport without the over emphasis the lights are having on it.

try to make the carbon a bit shiny, so there's some reflection, and bring the camera closer to the car.

the model though looks top notch for low poly, great job on that
