Audi R8

Hi guys. I wanted to show you my Audi R8.

Here’s a render

It’s definitely not done yet though. The back and the interior are barely modeled. Critique is welcome, but please don’t tell me Iv’e done a bad job on the headlights (I know they look a little funny) :stuck_out_tongue: I would like ideas on how I can fix them though. :slight_smile:

Wow, really good one! And nice wireframe too (I mean polyflow).
And what is wrong with the headlights? They seem good to me. The number plate is bothering me, though, I think it’s a little thin. And I’m not very fond of italic fonts, so I’d rather use a straight one (is it called regular?), but that’s just my whim.
Well done!

I just rendered a zoomed shot in on the headlights.

They don’t look that bad but my biggest concern lies with the lit up object surrounding the headlights (no idea what it’s called). :stuck_out_tongue: I have tried running it around a curve, but that is giving me problems. :spin:

Regarding the font, I personally like it, but I have to agree that it does not fit the car. Will change that. :slight_smile:

This is looking great! The topology is looking really clean! :slight_smile:

This is very, very well done! I don’t see any flaws whatsoever in the topology. Great work!

By the way, I think the light surrounding the headlights are LEDs. Other brands have tried to mimic it, but it looks best on an Audi. :wink:

Did you place all those verts by hand? Or are they mostly generated from subdivision? If that is all hand-made, I am left speechless!

I used edge loops to place the LEDs, not by hand.

Hi Greg,

the topology is looking great so far, as the car itself does. Just a few hints from my side, with possible improvements that caught my eye:

  1. The grille: the top corners of the radiator grille arent correct (Red Arrow). On the original car, they are more rounded. So in your case I would improve the hood and the grille there.

  2. The GT Model has a rear wing (Green Arrow).

  3. The GT Model also has some spoiler lips on the front bumper (Blue Arrow).

  4. The radiator grille itself should have more depth. The grille should also be open on the lower half (like on the original car) - otherwise there would be no airflow to the radiator.

Keep up your good work. Looking forward for updates!

  5. The rims should be more solid. They are way to thin right now…

Keep up your good work. Looking forward for updates!

Yeah, the top of the front grill looked kind of funny. Will fix that. I am not sure if I am going to put those spoilers and wing on though (personal preference). Thx :slight_smile:

Anyway, here’s what I have now.

I fixed up the LEDs :slight_smile:

Which color scheme do you guys like better?

Thank you all. :slight_smile: I’ll be back when I finish modelling the rear.

Here’s an update, front grill and rims fixed

stc=1

Your headlights are looking really good!

Here’s a back render

Not quite finished yet but I am very happy with how it is turning out. :slight_smile:

And here’s a wireframe.

Here’s that image again

Here’s a more complete back render.

I am now working on the interior. This is very difficult as I have never modeled a complete interior of a car before. :stuck_out_tongue:
Heres what I have so far…

Very nice! Good start to the interior, as well. I’m gonna be making my first car interior pretty soon, too… :stuck_out_tongue:

Don’t forget the most important part of the interior! :smiley:

Ha Ha! I’ll make sure I put that in

Here’s an update to the interior.

It’s beginning to come together now! :slight_smile:
