[Tutorial > Modeling] How to model cars
-
First of all i must say a big HI to all of you sketchupers out there as this is my first post on this forum.
This is a simple car tutorial, i didn't put any explications in it, so it is not addressed to complete beginners. I think it is relatively easy to follow though.
Here is the link http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=cebf95c37fdfced9eb9428839fd1741b
I also thank ely862me(name on the warehouse) for helping on this technique.
Hope it Helps.MARIAN -
Hi Marian,
First of all I must say a big THANKS!
A badly needed tutorial (as often some people request it but everyone has seemed to be too lazy to put one together so far - including me as well
)And welcome to the board of course!
-
i am a BIIIIIIG fan of urs Marian.... i was always under the impression that the models u posted in the 3D warehouse were imported from other geometry... but this is simply cool... please do participate more here... u obviously have a lot more u could share with us....
-
Nice tutorial Marian, I can see us directing people to this quite a lot!
-
Well "some" about all models of real cars are imported....and not made by me, i posted those because i was looking for cars like those and wanted to share, i kinda have a big collection of cars so keeping tabs on who exactly made them it's impossible so i didn't give credit
and most of them were on different sites uploaded by different people....
I feel i must give an explanation every time someone mentions those cars
......as you may have seen nowadays i preffer to post my own cars and stuff.
About tutorials, i would want to get familiar with the blueprint technique.The tutorial i've posted is only good for your own designs or close aproximations of real cars....but that i think will take a while.PS: Guess i should have posted the car that came out of the tuttorial

Very nice although I would have chosen a different "tune" to go along with your video.

I've thought a bit late of this but here are some car tutorials that some other people have made.

MARIANAwesome thread, just what I was looking for! I do have 1 stupid question though. How do I use the tutorial you posted?
-
Download and open it in SketchUp. Then click from scene to scene - starting with scene 1. It just shows the steps she takes to get from start to finish. Good luck!

Load it! Menu View Animation / play for have an overview of the method
Then Zoom all
Select all
Copy past for have 2 lines of cars
Lock the first linethen try to remake each step on the second line (first stay alive)
Have fun modeling!

I'm a HE Chris

Notre however that in many languages Marian is a girls' name. know that most of these names of Latin origin have both male and female versions but they are not always used. Like Andrea (which is actually of Greek origin) is a male name in Italian for instance but is female (in this form) in most languages.So never mind the "slip" by Chris

I know that Gaieus all too well...there was no malice intended.I just felt i should point that out for future refference

OK.
On a side note, I am also often taken for a woman by foreigners for my name. In our language there are no genders (like he or she) and many Indoeuropean languages have "a" as a female gender ending (on top of all, "Csaba" is a name of Turkish origin).
Ah well...
