I’ve been working on this Camaro model for about a week or so and this is the fastest ive gotten so far on any model I’ve ever made. I am going by the extremely helpful car modeling tutorial by Darkscarab.
I’m not going for anything super-realistic or anything. If it helps try to think of this project as something in-between low-poly and high. I just want to make something that is about 80% faithful to the original item. If this works out I hope to make a transformer out of this.
Quick update (I wonder how many posts have began with that phrase?) I finished the main body. Now all I have left is the grill, side mirrors, tires and all the other various accouterments (I like that word). As always pleas comment and crit.
Hey, thanks for the great tips. You always give cool topology tips. I don’t think I’m gonna actually add subsurf though. I’m kinda going for low-poly. It’s partly because I always get to “perfectiony” with my models and I never finish them that I’m doing this. I have other projects I want to do besides this and I’m just doing this on my own time, I’m not a pro or anything (obviously xp). I did get rid of some of those tri’s though. But as far as subsurf goes, i think I’m happy with the way it is.
Yeah i feel ya mate, i have lots of unfinished models that i really need to finish as well. I wanna go back to my early projects and update those with good topology. But yeah same as you i am doing this is what free time i have, and i don’t always have a lot of it. My major is kicking my butt right now, and classes start tomorrow. But enough about me, lets see how your low poly turns out (hopefully you can put sub-surf on it and detail it someday.)
