these are some detailings i did with the car, i have struggeld alot with the bottom and back of the car, right now am having some trobel readjusting the roof, because the blueprint i got had a squareish roof , and the enzo should have a round roof,u can see that on the second last picture from the back, so am working on that

i used just simpel planes lol

and i have a qustion, i really want to lern this stuff in some kind of a part time course, but where can i find any ? or am i just doomed to lern it my self untill i finish school ? or dose any artiest who are good care to raise a young beginner

sharpjaws

am nerly done lol my lazy ass is working a bit faster then usual

Yellow

Black

Revalco

WOW nice1, looks sweet

dl

Excellent...

CuLT

That's seriously impressive o_O

Shrimp

Nice, I need to start some 3d work. Maybe this summer.. (yes ages away i know)

tba

very impressive work sharp it looks fantastic.

Now for the points that are meant to help not annoy.

The internal of the car are not done, this is not much of a problem if you don't want to do it, but in that case try to avoid rendering views that show the backface of polys inside. In this case you can see right through your car and out the other side.

Ways to fix this in order of niceness include modelling the interior, forcing two sided rendering or making the glass completely reflective.

As an aside have you considered using HDRI to render this scene, the reflective nature of the car and a good plinth image would shoot this projects realism through the roof.

Once again great work.

I meant that theres no way in hell I'd ever be able to produce something like that so I may as well give up graphic work now.

*sigh*

sharpjaws

whao! lol i can work on composition later on :P but now me try to finish inside

Just a quick look, not done yet

dangerman

nice work.

would be great to see some animation on such a nice model.

Have you tried any character modelling yet?

Doodee

character modelling is hard enough to grasp, unless you use one of the plugins for max.

tone down the reflections a little bit, same with the chrome.
Also think about where you place the cameras and lights in the shots, you gotta consider the best angles for best results.

Other than that, looks very good. I know alot of lads with Certs and degrees and 3 years experience with Max that can't even modell as well, but dont get a big head, also know a few who are far better :P

i would animate this but omfg tbh it takes 10 minuts to render one frame dont tell me about a short filem havent tried characters yet, this is like the only way of modeling i know for characters there are more better ways , i have lot to lern, and yes ill change the materials abit when am down with every thing

ah 10 minutes isn't bad at all! Set it all up, then leave it rendering all weekend & give yourself a break from the computer.

casper-

Wow! Those are some truly nice renders...

haha lol am only 15, i have long way to go, o and can u get me some info where they got their degrees ? :rolleyes: i want to go lern this at school in future

sharpjaws

update **

sharpjaws

Took me 53 minuts to render this and it wasent great :S

sharpjaws

made some nice wheels just for show

Shrimp

Did you just texture the rubber on the wheel or did u model the threads.

In some of the renders it looks like you just used a texture.

It's attention to detail like that which will make this piece stand out.

steveland?

Jesus man... fair f**kin' play...

I used to mess around with Blender3D a bit when I was younger but I gave up cos I couldn't figure it out...

Perhaps I should have a go with 3DSMax...

Any links to the tutorials you used?

sharpjaws

well i used bump maps on the tyres, much easier ,

no particular tutorials on the car or any technins here, all figured out ,why not check out 3d-palace.com for some video tutorials

sharpjaws

it's comming to an end textures are made in ps :P

going to finish off very soon

Shrimp

good job. I wanna start this in the summer deffo.

sharpjaws

here is some more of that

sharpjaws

meh...am done with it:o

Shrimp

fair play, what site would u recommned for tuts?

GoneShootin

stunning

Anima

Very nice :v:

BloodBath

Jesus man, your knocking out work like that at 15. Amazing tbh. Keep it up. You have a good career ahead of you.

its a great way to start with character modelling.... should give it a go. these tutorials should get you through the basics flook it let it fly and apply!

http://www.suurland.com/blueprints_archive.php

here's a cool site for blueprints too if you decide to stick to non organic stuff.

if anyone is interested I'll post more sites worth a look 3d wise.

this is some mean work man! keep it up!

forgot all bout this thread.

sorry, should have made myself clearer, guys with degrees aren't the ones who cant model.

The cert was from Ballyfermot College, LUDO course in games design, now that was back in the days of Max 3 and 4.

Ballyer also have a few diplomas, one in games design (continuation from ludo) and 2 others in 3d animations (if memories serves me correctly).

Dun Laoraighe also has a diploma course which is apparently very good.

As for the degrees, Teeside in the U.K is very good, think Abertay in Dundee also has a course. Theres also DAve's school in orlando.

Ive been working on a 3D Dojo lately...pretty effin hard!! Im 16 myself so as with myself, you've a lot ahead of you, and alot of experience with Maya and 3DsMax behind you.

conzy

Wow, Looks amazing:eek:

Do you have any tips for a complete beginner?
