Lego Car

A lego car I modelled in blender and rendered in lightflow.

I first builded a large lego library with all the pieces I would need, the I started building the model. Took about two weeks in total (about 1.5 hours work per day).

For SGT Squeaks : Every single piece of Lego is beveled :slight_smile:

I’m still thinking about a good background, but I can’t come up with anything.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.[/img]

Wow, that looks great!!!
Now all you need is a little Lego-man to drive it, should be easy 'nuff to model.
Anywayz, great job!!!

Blend on, and blend well!!!

Well… hot rods are often at the shop being modded and souped up… why not model a couple of the big flat lego peices for a ground, and fill the background with a Lego-built garage?

Excellent work :slight_smile:

Ya, there are SO many possibilies.

Wow great job! :stuck_out_tongue:
Remembers me to the good old times… :wink:

WHOA :o :o
Great modeling/rendering!

Holy Crap! the lighting is perfect, so is everything else…

awsome!

Great job, very nice image !! Nice render too …

Good stuff! Did you model all those pieces yourself or use Thewriter’s lego script?

Is there a lego script???
I made everything myself…

AWESOME!!!

I came across a blender lego script the other day, now I wish I had bookmarked it. How long did it take you to make those pieces anyway?

It took about then days to model all the pieces (I also modelled pieces I didn’t need in this model). Maybe about 15 hours in total.
Then a few hours to build the car (spread over about 5 days)

you coulda used MLCAD (Mikes Lego CAD). It exports as DXF :wink:

Very nice though, lotsa time to model all of the little pices. Now you can make many lego things :smiley:

If i do not sound too presumtuous… could you post yer peices? It would mean good quality .blend format lego peices for all…

how bout it?

wow!! :o

my older son is now 6, lego’s are so cool… mostly we build houses though… anyways, why I replied was this: my other son is little bit over 1 year old, and he likes destroying everything, especially lego models others build.
so what you could do is model a big hand, and then animate it smashing the car into tiny little pieces… it would bring some realism to this scene :slight_smile:

/me too would like to have those pieces :slight_smile:

Great job!

One of the best modeling job I’ve seen. The lighting is excellent.

That reminds me of my love of building with legos as a kid. My uncle bought a lego set for me, which was advanced for my age. It had those same tires! When a was a few years older I always tried to get my folks to buy the space sets.

I was pleased to see your post on www.cgtalk.com, and the positive feedback you got.

Great publicity for Blender!

Well done!
