1996 FERRARI F50 SPIDER v1.2
In my opinion this is one of the most gorgeous cars that Ferrari ever made and it has been my inspiration to get involved into car modeling!!! I had this model done last year but recently I decided to give it a complete remesh to apply some knowledge that I’ve gained in the last couple of months. I also managed to give life to it in Assetto Corsa pc game and actually play it with my sim 
, that also was something I was looking for when I first started with 3D modeling: to make my ideas somehow playable.
Here are some model comments:
-The car interior was entirely made by eye from reference photos, the car blueprint helped when putting the seats, the car shiftern steering wheel and other important parts in their actual place, giving the model a decent accuracy with the real life car. It also has being scaled to real world measures.
-Engine: The car engine mesh is still in progress as it has been a whole challenge to recreate it well detailed by looking photos as the majority of them are from top view and you can barely see at detail whats under the engine head. Also keeping it as lowest poly as possible it’s a must as the car must still look smooth on the game.
-Textures for the instrument cluster, headlight and tailight glasses, and other distinctive parts where extracted from the web from photos of the real car, and worked later in Photoshop, and some other ones where entirely created (floor rubbers, the pattern on the pedals, etc). Tyre texture carefully applied seamlessly (the whole mesh of one tyre consists in only 1,920 triangles). The grilles are also plain geometries with textures to save polygons.
-EXTRAS:
-Almost the whole dashboard instruments have been replicated and accurately parented to empties, to be animated. Also dashboard lightning has been added.
-Doors, steer and engine bay also accurately parented and ready to animate.
-Wiper animation included
-The model is Rigged for animations with RIGACAR plugin.
TO BE DONE:
*Seatbelts.
*Engine and rear suspension to be finished.
*Dirt texture to be added in order to make the car body to look dirty.
*Link steering wheel rotation to wheels rotation in the RIGACAR plugin.
*Some minor elements to be added in the cockpit and dashboard.
