Scratch the above post. Instead of me continuing my work on the 2010 Mustang I decided to merge some of what I had done with the Milano, doesn’t it just look gorgeous! I am also thinking of a name change, back to just Rogue Milano

Sorry if I double post
I have decided to make a base model Milano and a performance version. I think I may step away from the GT badge and use something a little more unique. I may also indorse some limited sports models of your design. Once the base model and sports models are on the warehouse I hope to see some nice mods, maybe not too extreme but more just tuner models. I will try to choose 2 or 3 designs to add to the collection along with them as recognised Rogue tuner models.
Shams, Shreeyam, hint, hint (If you want I can drop you a pre release copy for you to play around with).
IDK how long I’ll be with my models but I hope to finish them by the end of this month. I have a 4 day weekend coming up so ill be going SU mad. I have a couple of other projects to get to work on too but they won’t be going on the 3DWH, one model is 20MB! (Ford Falcon) which will be available, in future, off site.
-I only have to finish the dash and centre console on the Milano, it’s looking damn great!
Silly people! Clearly not made to do that!
Just to let you all know; I'm now doing a course in automotive mechanics and engineering. I’m enjoying it a lot but I don’t get a lot of spare time for SU. Just to tide you over for a while I have a sexy shot of the Milano in red.
Damn fantastic! I love the first design; it almost looks alive, as if it belongs in the ocean!
Maybe if you bumped up the front a little, refined the beak and turned it into a sedan I would say it would look perfect (see picture of it by the tree)
The second one is looking good, refined and familiar. Take a look at these beasts, might help you draw some inspiration

As I said before, I may not make the Mustang. There are no BP's, it’s very hard, and I barley had a thing done plus I have too many other projects. For now there is no 2010 Mustang coming, hence the update to the Milano
Just finished the steering wheel, uploaded to the 3DWH:

I'm having real difficulty making the dash. I may have to do some major re-working.
I like your work Scott! The first model you showed was great, very nice vintage racer cartoon style. I very much like your Lambo too. I do a lot of car modeling for fun, however I try to make them look as close to the right proportions as possible
Keep us posted!
A little more work on the interior. The wheel design is to look like the European Ford wheel, but with the touch of Ford's "MyFord" system. The dash will look different to in that image, here’s a couple of links that may be of interest, and one has a video with a hint of what I hope to do with my dash:

Thanks again. .Well, here are more interior shots. The file size is really getting up there. At this rate I project it’ll hit around 9+ MB. I was hoping to do some basic running gear but I’m not sure it’ll all fit
Thanks Javier. Here is more interior work, just the dash and a few other details left; Mind, the dash is quite difficult, considering the design of it

Thanks Shams
I don’t know about the logo. For now it’s just a bit of a bother as I’ve never been very good at making logos.
Here’s a progress update. Door basically finished, attached file.
Door.skp
Proposal for a new front end; it is more contemporary and IMO looks a little more fitting. I may offer the original front as an optional extra
Thanks again. Well, I'm hoping to make a new logo, very much like that of Jaguars but a Cougar instead. So far I’ve have little success, I was hoping someone would be willing to lend a hand and getting the Jag logo to look a little more like a Cougar through Photoshop or Gimp, or whatever.
I have a link to some great Cougar pic’s and the Jag logo(s) I was looking at.

Thanks..
Thanks Shreeyam
I have been doing a little work on a 2010 Super Milano. Not much changed but I'm working hard on interior!
Looking good so far! The photo textures fit quite well and do help give a more detailed feel.
I can’t keep on working on the attached model so I’m offloading it here. I don’t think I’ll ever come back to it so feel free to use as you please but if you do finish it then I would like some credit. I have a couple of very important projects I am working on, one for a group in Australia and one in American so I may be tied up with that for some time to come. I have streamlined my Models folders and cleaned it up a lot so I should be able to work a little faster and it will help me focus on my main projects.
I will try to keep you all posted with any development. I have a couple of models coming soon, within the next few months, so keep nagging me about them else I’ll probably slack off again.
Also, the last of the FROR models is uplaoded

Have a great 2010!
Damn Shams! That Falcon mod is very nice! I personally love what you’ve done up to the Coupe stage.
Well Thomas, there is the soap skin bubble tool. I have tried that out and it seems it could be useful for forming some tricky surfaces but I don’t seem to have too much trouble as it is
