              Thank you Richard, these are really nice looking considering how small a footprint they make. I have a few models with nearly empty parking lots that I can now make look more convincing.

                    Thanks guys, I've updated the files to include V7 versions, and have also done the suggested modifications for use as cast or plastic versions and included as separate.

                          Thanks Richard. πŸ‘ I really dislike cars (particulary the real cars), but these models look very good and will come in handy.
                          Thanks for the SU7 version as well. πŸ˜‰

                              Hmmm? How come you hate cars mate? Must say I rarely put them in renders.

                                Dug through my archives to find this little animation that I did years ago with these cars, brings back the reason I did them - it was for an animation pack!

                                Must be losing my memory! Mind you this was a LONG time ago and way before ruby scripting for SU.

                                I had created long hand a SU template with about 240 scenes which allowed the camera to be set for a single view then the vehicle movements were components with a vertical panel (component) inserted on 240 layers that turned on/off for each scene.

                                Car speed was determined by scaling the line the car travelled. As the vertical panel didn't scale (just a plane) reloading it with a car after path insertion and scaling, the car would retain correct size. Also the line could be broken and separately scaled to have the vehicle accelerate and slow.

                                Also played with people walking by each second component flipping left to right.

                                Stupid freakin idea but hey it worked and worked well. Like a lot of things I just never got around to finishing them.
