The dream is to learn car modelling. I'm trying making a model of the Ford GT40 owned by a friend of mine (using Philip's McLaren tutorial in the background. Any comments about the splines so far?

Looks great! I think you will have little difficulty patching that. :)

You bet! Any suggetions...?

looks good, but i dont know anything about patching. i got to learn that. i did a tutorial on a car, but i dident have the pations to finish it, so it ended up to be a toy car in plastic :p

your off to a good start there.. check out the McLaren tutorial to learn more about patching :)

My only suggestion when you start patching is to use as few panels and practicable and add or subdivide later as needed. Planning your lines to encompass details as Philip does so well is a huge help.

i never use splines when i start a car....i was tempted at the begining but....just download this tutorial. I belive that this method is way better than drawing lines and then patching them
