Rogue's W.I.P's!

BLANK · 7 Jan 2009, 19:18

Sweet! I just had so many ideas in my head just by looking at the pictures of the GT70.

When Will it get done?

Roguer1 · 7 Jan 2009, 23:18

Be patient, I am busy with lots of things at the moment. SU is one of the last things on my list. I will get it done when I get around to it.

Ok, I think its time for an update on my Cobra.

It’s officially an unfathomable mess.

I am modeling the Original 2010 Trojan Cobra and trying to fit, along the way, the original mustang variants into the mix. Its very hard work as the Mustang line is just about as confusing as the 911 range through the years. So, I am a little bit stuck for now but a little work should help get things moving.

This is what I mean:

Original: looks like the '67 Coupe and later Mach 1, GT or Boss

Second re-model: Going to look like original Coupe (need to shorten roofline)

Third re-model: looks like the Fastback, Hertz and is going to be re-modeled to look like the GT, GT 500, GT 500KR GT 350 and GT 350E (I need to replace the window section with a scoop and a vent)

Plus there are a few other models. I also have to take into consideration the lights, hoods, grille, rear lights, side scoops, LM stripes and the hardest part; names.

the names:
go on Google Transalate, choose the word in english, (make sure its english to whatever you want) then press transalate.

I don't think you know what I mean. The names are in English, It’s the Mustang.
I just need to apply the correct names to the correct vehicle.

I think I will just model the most important Mustangs; I have Ford Mustang - The Legend Lives on PS2 so I think I'll use that as a guide.

Roguer1 · 9 Jan 2009, 07:43

Here is a little re-modeling for the base model.

You'll notice the roofline is shortened and that the lights, bumper skirting and boot are also changed

This is based on the original 1965 Mustang Coupe; I will also make a GT version, Convertible along with the Fastback and GT Fastback

I will then model the 1968 Mustang Coupe, GT, Convertible, Fastback, GT Fastback, GT/CS, GT 500, GT500KR, '69 MACH 1, '69 and '70 BOSS (maybe others such as the GT 350, GT 350H and any other suggestion)

(I finally made my list )

It looks a little RED at the moment but when the interior, wheels, grills and other details are added it will look much better.

Roguer1 · 9 Jan 2009, 11:48

I have now finished the basic grille.

The 1965 Coupe had a flatter face to the 1968 so I have also shortened the front end point.

It seems I can only talk so much before I start talking to myself again!

Come on, feedback!

Anyway, even though I haven’t finished my last Rogue Ultimatum, I have started a new one for 2010.
It is based on the Ford Kuga, as the Kuga is a Replacement for the Escape.
My Ultimatum was kind-of an Escape based SUV so the next will be based on the Kuga.
2010 Rogue Ultimatum.skp
Its only very early days

KDSDESIGN · 10 Jan 2009, 16:41

I looked up the kuga and it said "Not to be confused with ford couger" maybe you could make a car based off a Ford Couger?

KDSDESIGN · 10 Jan 2009, 17:00

Also, About 99% of your models are Ford-Based (im not saying thats bad) but you might want to see if you can create cars based off of other cars.

Maybe Try These

Thansk for noticing but I often base cars of Ford in SU because the resources are avalible, such as accurate blueprints. Ford is the one car manufacturer that inspires most of my SU models. BTW, most of the cars you showed me are Concepts, I preffer to model more practical models in SU, like the Mazda 3.

I like the Ford Cougar, but its too outdated now. It was concieved in the 90's and looked a bit old as soon as i rolled off the assembly line. I do, however, preffer the Mercury Cougar (the original). If I get time I will try to convert the Cobra into a Cougar.

Thanks anyway

And thanks for the comments:

Well, You could put mods on it to make it look "Modern"

Quote mess up ._. so i deleted them

Roguer1 · 11 Jan 2009, 14:43

Damn! I am lazy!

Don't expect much major progress from me in SU for a while.
I'll try to get some minor wip's out of the way first and then maybe some of the bigger things.

To keep you at bay for a few days here is a little more stuff.
I have done a little work on the Rogue Paramount Coupe, minor but its progress.

-Seat has had a little work done
-More dash revision
-Revised model list (cut out larger models such as the Limousine and Turnier)

And a new wheel
