Default Toys 'R' Davey.

Hi,

In a drive towards improving my modeling skills, I'm going to go through a Toy modeling Phase. I have all of this toy ref around me, so I may as well take advantage of it, while it's here.

Note: These models are not my own designs, but using them for practice and not financial gain.



Wires:









Bob the Builder toys up next

Boy this is fun. :sunsm:

Best Wishes

HI Fallenswordsmen,

I asked Lwwiz to post for me coz I was having puter trouble, hehe.

Been messing with HardFX for nearly 4 hours now. I am alot closer to what I want now.

I have zipped the 30 meg QuickTime file to get it down to 12 meg.

>>>>>Click here to download 12 meg zipped Quicktime file. Unzipped size 30 meg<<<<<

If anyone knows of ways that I can improve this, please let me know.

Best Wishes

Looking very good Davey, just one question: why do the top 2 beams on Lofty have so many polys compared to the rest of the vehicle? It appears a little overkill for what is needed!

EDIT: Love the little animation as well! The HardFX truly is a wonder to play with. Im playing right now!
Try if u can to get the car to accelerate down the ramps and at the end it should roll further, unless it has rust axles.

Hi shawry,

Thankyou. The top 2 beams are like that coz the first one is circular at the base, although, I supes the second one could have alot less. I'll mess with that to decrease the polys. Thanx for crit.

I need to mess with the HardFX thing more, till I get it rite, thanx.

Best Wishes
