Rogue's W.I.P's!

Great stuff

I WISH I had the patience to work on a single car for that long. I've only made 1 car before(VolksWagen Type 181: "Thing"), and it was a pain, so I cut it short, and haven't modeled a car since.

Wait... What did you want to own?

BTW, if you want, I have a sketchyphysics version of the "Thing", but it's controls aren't correct (I gave it 4 wheel steering in the SketchyPhysics version, and it's pretty wobely and has no reverse. I only had about 20 minutes to make it work in sketchyphysics. When SP3 comes out, I'll probably be able to make a better version, as I model on a mac.)

Here's the normal (not sketchyphysics) version: It's the most complete, and not posted on the warehouse. You can edit it how you like, it's separated into components, and made easy to customize.
That, and like all my models, It has a file size so low it confuses ME.

Thanks all for the comments. I will try to keep hard at finishing my model asap.

good stuff =D

[KDSDESIGN]

btw, good tutorial

[GreenToaster]

I've never created a car using that technique you show in your video but I enjoyed the tutorial very much and plan on using some of those methods . . . when I finally get to use SketchUp again in a couple of weeks, or so.

Keep up the great work - thank you for the time to publish the video tutorial - awesome!

[KDSDESIGN]

just had to say (again) Nice Stuff!

[BLANK]

Just got myself a permanent account.
Hopefully, I might post new updates once in a while.

BTW, I too have been making some wheels after going through this thread again. Although my outlandish designs are nowhere near your realistic ones, I just thought of sharing them with you .

![Here's the latest one I just made. (Note: The lugs look very tiny due to hidden lines and "unsafe" due to not having any housing around it. Currently working on that)](/uploads/imported_attachments/Wvdg_wheel1.png "Here's the latest one I just made. (Note: The lugs look very tiny due to hidden lines and "unsafe" due to not having any housing around it. Currently working on that)")

I would've uploaded the brakes as a separate model ages ago but I don't know what's holding me back from doing it (voices inside my head... ). I just might in the future sometime...

What d'ya think?

[KDSDESIGN]

nice stuff blank lol

[Roguer1]

They are looking very good. I am amaized at how much you have actually done and how good they look. I started to use the same tyre and brakes on most of my wheels. Saves me haveingto spend hours fidiling around with a new mesh.

I hope to see more wheels from you.

BTW are you still uploading to the 3dwarehouse, if not, I wish you would.

[BLANK]

Yeah, I'm working on some right now. I have entries for FJC and Anton's contests, the Scirocco GT24 (just have the front fascia to work on) and a Nissan ute (SilCamino) which I'm going to upload soon.

[Roguer1]

Oh....and another wheel. I hope you like it

Here is my 2009 Trojan Cobra WIP. Still looking like a Mustang but now starting to look more like the new GT.
Total re-modeling time: 3 hours (more to come)
Poly count: 10,000
With wheels: 55,000
Estimated Final: 65,000

Tell me what you think

[KDSDESIGN]

Funny that the wheels are higher polygon than the car- lol

[BLANK]

That Edge wheel looks seriously good. Too bad they didn't save it for a large sedan or the V6 Mustang. It looks tiny on the Edge.

Like I said in the warehouse, the update is coming out well. Worth the wait IMO.
