Very cool, Elisei! I'm not a car modeler, but still like watching you make a car take shape

-
Thanks Marcus !

What's the poly count on this thing? It's got to be HUGE!
See attached !

And I think I am done with it !! Though I want to add the logos and publicity stuff on it, I don't quite know what is the best way. Maybe I will make some extra mesh with the logos on it and place it very close to the body, in this way the geometry will look smooth(as I did with the windshield decals).

Oh, and

-
wow

-
Thanks guys !Stickers applied and the file size is 33.9 mb !

-
Are you sure about this purple colour, Ely?

-
-
-

THAT IS AWESOME!!!
-
I would like to have a pink one! I just can't imagine what faces will those big fans do when they will see such a beast in pink !

Meanwhile first good render in hypershot with postpro in photoshop !

Here i reduced a bit the brightness of the dirt map .

And here is the original render .

I haven't made any post processing so far(at least not that much) on my cars,so it is a new field for me .

A magnificent piece of modelling

-
Hello chaps ! Thanks for comments! If I stay more around this I will start to see every imperfection (already spotted a couple) . But well, next time I will try to make it better !

-
Incredible!!! My only criticism would be that the scene should be more in focus beneath the car, DOF thing.

Thank you sir !
I know what you are talking, unfortunately I had no image to match the hdri environment so I used the hdri only.

-
Thanks !
Studio shot !

Gorgeous and fantastic 3d work!

You definitely are the master in this particular kind of modelling! A lot of useful information I can learn from your posts. -
Elisei,
I wanted to thank you for sharing all your wisdom and tricks on carmodeling!
I bought your SU-books and learned a sh*tload from you.I used Artisan for some weeks, when I saw your topic. I, the hero I can be, thought "I can do that".
After some failures, realised I should learn some more and bought your books.That was 1,5 week ago and this is 'your' result:
