I wanted a change of scene from my truboprop racers, so I started this, not sure how far I'll take it, but it's fun for now, what do you guys think? :)

Cheers

Craig

Looks pretty good so far. Not too sure though, but at the moment, the drivers position looks a little out of scale with the rest of the model (might just be because there's no real frame of reference though at the moment).

I can confirm that the driver scaling/positioning is completely and utterly wacked at this stage, I'll address that in the next update I recon, make some custom seats rather than using fliched ones from my last turboprop racer! ;)

Cheers

Slight update, made a start on the front... looks kinda Bently like, not what I specifically intended, but then I'm just kinda doin stuff without any pre-determined ideas really.

Done quite a bit of work now, the louvred panel in the rear is going to be replaced bya visible engine (though it looks kinda cool!).

Comments etc please guys

Here's an update, started making better suspension... might re-make the shocks too. I have made calipers & brake disks, but they are hideen behind the wheels, so I might make more open spoked wheels too?

Anyways, feel free to add suggestions etc..

Cheers

I haven't had much time lately at all, but I have worked a little bit more on this thing:

Anyone? Anyone?? Anyone???

Cheers for now

Craig, looking abso-f*****g-lutely great.

I'm curious though - the lighting in those images - is that pure radiosity, or have you used Eki'd plugpak for those - also, whichever method you've used - i'd be interested in the settings...

Thanks mark, glad you like it thus far.

The lighting in this last set of renders isn't radiosity, but indeed uses Eki's plugpak lighting, still quite slow to render, but quicker than full on rad, and a bit more interesting.

Cheers

Craig

Slight update with some surface testing:

I'm still open to any suggestions etc........

Nice. I'm especially liking the soft focus effect in the render.

Way kewl, those tires are sweet! Nice looking renders as well.

PS: What bar is that you have on the right side of your monitor? Doesn't look like a default windows, but it looks incredible useful.
