You mean things like that ?

The wheels on my model are very basic I know, but they will stay like that until I decide to put some more effort in them.
I should have done round holes all around the exterior of the hubcaps ... but been too lazy for that for now

Thanks, I don't know for now ... but if I decide to make an interior I suppose it will be a very basic one.

Just because I'm proud of it

Rendered into PovRay with a chrome material and a bump map.

I think the car will be finished in max 2 weeks now.
I'm working a lot for a better subdivised shape (and materials boundaries respect).

Also I'm learning more and more things about how to use Povray ...

Cheers.

Here are some new pictures of that WIP :

luuckyy · 5th August 2006, 02:44 AM

New ToDo list :

- gazoline cap, windscreen wipers, red light at the top back of the car, car's logo and also (why not) name ...
- renders

Modeling a car is for sure a lot of work

Thanks for the advice.

I will maybe add that to the car then.

luuckyy --- this is looking fantastic --- I love the new tires, and the entire vehicle has a nice, professional polish to it.

Thanks all for the kind words.

ToDo list update

:
- car name
- windscreen wipers (which BTW are very hard to place/adapt on the car/windscreen - I even tried
to extrud them directly from the windscreen but ... have to think again about that)
- final renders with materials/textures ...

Cheers !
