Rogue's W.I.P's!

[Roguer1]

Thanks. I have done heaps more updates on the models now. I have revised most of the details and added more detail around the wheels

[BLANK]

Great, I've doing the same for some time now. I just found out that my McLaren F1 LM is my most popular model yet it looks like a pile of.. you know what. I'll keep updating them till, well, hell freezes over.

It's awesome what aligning the wheels and fixing/hiding a few lines can do: Modified Ford Capri

[Roguer1]

MORE WORK ON MUSTELA!!!

[JaViXP]

Very nice, Ben! You have done an awesome work with only one image!

[MrPlanet]

What a great model. Working from one picture and a few references.

4 unfinished Mazda models I felt like getting rid of....

Interesting. Wish I had the guts to finish one.

That Mazda pickup seems interesting.

[Roguer1]

Here are some more shots of the Mondeo

[MrPlanet]

Yay! Can't wait for it to be finished

[Wacov]

Looks awesome! But I don't understand why you don't smooth as you go, I find it easier to be able to select panels quickly, and it gives me a better idea how the finished model will look...

[Roguer1]

Well, it’s because smoothing as you go is pointless. I often re-model large part of the model and that requires raw mesh. If it’s all messy and grouped it can often lead to whole groups being deleted or moved. It’s just a lot easier to work straight from raw mesh and group thing and add finishing touches at the end

Thanks for the comments though

[BLANK]

Well, you could work with the hidden geometry on, but it's best to deal with the smoothing later.

Speaking of hidden geometry, does any of you use shortcuts for the important tools/views? I rigged up a couple of them and I seem to work faster now. Just a thought.

[MrPlanet]

Yeah. My V is for edges on/off my B is for hidden geometry and my N is for profiles.

[Roguer1]

Yeah, I have set-up one or two. I don’t often bother but I may end up adding a few more.
Now that you mention it

Alright people, injecting car quiz into this thread.

This is a 1969 Shelby GT500: Photo
And this is a 1969 Shelby GT500: Photo
As you might've noticed, it's a fakie. So, anyone knows the original car?

Full story here, but don't just jump to the conclusion!

Beautiful craftsman, BTW.

[Roguer1]

Looks good. I have seen a couple of earlier model retro-build’s. Based on the GT500XR, not the best build but its still unique. Oh, btw, link to the full story is wrong

[MrPlanet]

Ok.. is this a render or a reference pic?

[BLANK]

Grr... and again, here.

That's a good example too. I wouldn't agree with the taillights being slightly angled, but may be it's just the point of view.

[Roguer1]

Just some pic's of my Mondeo..Oh, and the Mondeo model

Great model. Just like the actual car.
