Sweet as john you are flying through this like your on full boost

by **danbode** » July 14th, 2008, 2:53 pm

do you just download the program from the net?

by **EFFalcon** » July 14th, 2008, 2:56 pm

3dstudio max is licenced software.
to get it you'd need to buy it or pirate it.

There are alternatives that are free.

zmodeler is used for games and is free
anim8or is free, havnt used it.

the only issue is its generally only the larger expensive software that has some decent tutorials/help around.
saying that though, the general theory is the same.

by **Kyle the ED4LTR** » July 15th, 2008, 10:13 am

i tried zmodeler ages ago, was a bit easier to use that 3ds imo, but i was like 11 then so yeh.

by **EFFalcon** » July 15th, 2008, 10:56 am

Rear bits done.

by **LTDHO** » July 15th, 2008, 12:37 pm

by **EFFalcon** » July 15th, 2008, 12:38 pm

Wow, you're really flying through this! You need to make a gif showing the model being spun around

by **holmsy** » July 15th, 2008, 3:41 pm

by **EFFalcon** » July 15th, 2008, 3:45 pm

nup, i can't seem to get the reflection right.

by **krisisdog** » July 15th, 2008, 7:31 pm

I fails at autodesk. How the fk do you use it!!!

by **[Sterling]** » July 15th, 2008, 7:44 pm

ca you make somthing like this john with that program, it would be cool.

by **EFFalcon** » July 15th, 2008, 7:45 pm

technically yes kester... but modeling engine + trans + suspension + interior = too much effort.

Too much effort?

Give you time and it will be done like that only better!

by **EFFalcon** » July 16th, 2008, 7:25 am

test with some wheels, not sure if the tyres are the right size but it was just to see what it'd look like

Not happy with the rear, looks a bit too squared off.
will try and tweak it a bit.

by **LTDHO** » July 16th, 2008, 7:32 am

You're right the corner above the tail light seems more square than round.

Still looks mad but!

by **Steady** » July 16th, 2008, 8:06 am

Should of done an ED john, would have been easier

by **EFFalcon** » July 16th, 2008, 8:35 am

NOW you tell me... dammit Jared.

by **fordbaby** » July 16th, 2008, 10:45 am

jared just wants ya to do his car

change the colour back to purple, it looks mad purple

by **LTDHO** » July 16th, 2008, 1:11 pm

Love the dish on the rears.
Car needs to sit lower also widen centre section.

Otherwise, great.

by **EFFalcon** » July 16th, 2008, 1:14 pm

the car is as low as my actual car.
and... widen centre section? what ya mean

by **Bipolar** » July 16th, 2008, 1:17 pm

Looks mad.

I think if the section between above the bar were sloped in at the bottom a bit more, and the section below the boot and taillights was slightly concaved, it'd help a bit.

by **Commando** » July 16th, 2008, 3:55 pm

Now that it's been put together, it looks like something off that NZ highway crash show

Fully 90s comgen!

No, that's not an insult

by **Kyle the ED4LTR** » July 16th, 2008, 4:10 pm

is it hard to do John?

by **krisisdog** » July 16th, 2008, 4:16 pm

Yes, yes it is.

by **needfordspeed** » July 16th, 2008, 4:24 pm

I tried mucking around with that when I was younger and it was just an epic fail, so I know how hard this really is!

Looks good John

by **AaronEF8** » July 16th, 2008, 4:29 pm

Do you have a pic of the boot/rear bumper, looking almost straight down onto it to compare? I think the bumper is more rounded, like someone heated it and pulled from the middle. I think the front needs the same done to it, to a lesser extent. The grille kinda looks too narrow from the pics as well.

Certainly not picking on it though! The section around the rear door/wheel arch looks sick, I thought that would be really hard to get right. When is it getting an intercooler?

by **pHaT`eL** » July 16th, 2008, 5:58 pm

That looks sick

I think what Wayne was getting at was the middle bit looks too thin. Car needs to be wider.
How long till a PHATEL one is done

by **EFFalcon** » July 16th, 2008, 6:31 pm

I agree with a majority of what you're saying.
the car does need to be wider.. easy fixed

front does need a little bit of work, just the overall shape is a little off.
rear needs a bit more rounding here and there.
will see how it goes.
happy with how it is so far

Have fun with that. I've been playing with it for a few days, and struggling.
