So far, so good.
A 1995ish model of the Miata was my post-grad school, single guy car. Lotsa fun!
It’s gonna be red, right?
Hmm…yea I could use red. I might do that. Thanks
The model looks almost fine, however there are many unneeded vertices on some parts of the car (see image).
I sugest you to get rid of them and keep only the ones that are strictly required. This way the mesh is much easier to maintain.

oh. Your right about that. I wish I had realized that . Thanks. Time for reconstruction.
heres some pics of the model at the moment

I think the “eyebrows” over the headlights are overstylized, but overall its coming along well!
You have waaay too many vertices as I said before.
I think you can model this car with 10% of the vertices you use. Try to get rid of some of them.
TRexian: your right…that really doesn’t look very good
Cipix: your right. I got kinda confused trying to make the door lines and add the lines I saw on the blueprint. I got really carried away. The entire car is pretty dense. I don’t think it’s a very good model and it would be faster to restart. I’m just going to start on something else and try do it right this time. Thanks
Hey styler:
I think you are on the right track with your modelling skills but you have look at a few good car wires too see how to place the vertices and edge loops.

You can look also at my Citroen C3 and Renault Scenic WIP.
thanks, those are very useful…i’ll study those so I can get a better feel for auto modeling
