Very, very nice!

Very accurate and great attention to detail.

Puts a lot of hi-defs to shame.

Very cool stuff mate !

At first I didn't really believe it was "low" poly. Especially the bonnet and doorbevels work really well.

:bowdown:

So, when are you going to post your dino ?

I have to say Mr.LB that is quite smashing! :) :drool: :eek:

jolly good show!

[M-CLK]

xtrm3d: You guessed correctly. Lightwave is the best package for low poly work (in my opinion).

Wiek: The Dino is on it's way. It just needs lighting properly.

BigErn: Why thank you sir! One tries you know :D Now when are you gonna post something???

[R3Koil]

That really is a nice model for 10k. Excellent job.

Great looking car!

[Novakog]

Hehe, lightwave's renderer is good at smoothing isn't it ;)?

Nice model, well made and well rendered! Keep it up! :buttrock:

[M-CLK]

Thanks everyone for your comments. When I first posted I wasn't sure if it would be appreciated, being low polygon. But I must say I've been pleasantly surprised.

aomcaloes: Sorry mate didn't mean to forget you - your comment was probably the best of all :)

[Lem]

very nice work. Congrats :applause:
I only would chamfer the roundings on the back window frame 1 time. Then i would call it perfect. Its the only part where is see the low poly stuff.

Have you considered making the car available for 1 of the open source race simulations like Racer?

I would love to be able to drive that dream car :cool:

Pretty nice car .. :applause: :applause:

:bounce:

[M-CLK]

Hi Lem,

I agree with your point about the back window, it does look a bit faceted. I will take a look at it when I get time.

No I hadn't thought about making the model available, but now you mention it, it sounds like an excellent idea. I was going to experiment with racing liveries from the early 1960's and think it would be really cool to see the car in action.

Super nice stuff I couldn't beleive that it was low poly but you have amazed me man
!!! nice !!!

mr.W

[furo]

hm,really nice,10k... nice;)

[Ghostscape]

Looks pretty good.

Is that polycount 10k triangles or 10k quads, though?

It looks dead sexy.

[samgrice]

thats f'king sweet man, are your sure its tri's not quads though, it looks so damn smooth.

nice job

[M-CLK]

Hi Ghostscape & samgrice. I just loaded the car into Modeler and the exact Poly count is 9913 triangles.

Cheers,

LB.

[M-CLK]

Here are some variations of the model.

I added them to the thread a couple of months ago, but CGTalk got hacked and the post was lost.

great job...nice work on the low poly count for such a nice model.

[jasbakleo]

I'd like to say I've been on the racer forums at racesimcentral and you're a very good modeler. You should post it for download to be used in the game racer. The car uses a data file called a performance .ini which models the cars performance characteristics. If you can get someone to make one or make one yourself it'd be great. Well,so much for that, It's a great model , what other cars w/pedigrees in motoring history will / have make/made?

[M-CLK]

PES: Thanks a lot - glad you liked it (as well as the Dino).

jasbakleo: I have spent some time looking at Racer and would be keen to see my car running - it's really just a matter of me finding the time to sort it out. As for other cars, I have a number of projects on the go in various states of completion from the 1930's, 60's and 70's.

Cheers,

LB.

Hi LB,
they look fantastic.
A friend of mine want to do some small uncommercial racing game. I already made 1 car for him and it could use an enemy to drive against :)

Would you be interested?

Would you be interested?Hi Lem,

sorry I didn't reply sooner, I've been kind of busy with my other thread on Hosted. Yes I am interested. It would be nice to see some screenshots of my 250 in-game. What car did you make for him? Have you got any images?

LB.
