Vehicle: Lotus Ecos Concept

[K-design]

waaaaw
really nice model
but i think u can do better with lighting

[StoneR]

yeah, i'd like to see some larger images of the other views with some more light coming from the sides instead just above the car, can't really see to much of the side details

[Titan]

great looking work, I'd like to see a wire...what package/ what method?

Hi Friends,

The BIG Version ;)

The Car was made with LightWave 7.5
I'll post details later HERE on the board and on my website.

A new location is at work...

So, I have to sleep now...hehe :rolleyes:

The surface kinda seems soft. you might want to adjust your shininess and diffusion. Other wise modeling is great.
:thumbsup:

daniel daniel daniel !!!!!

great car.. as alway .. you are the best !!!
let us see the red one you showed me some time ago

[EighthDecay]

looks great, but could use a little more style i think. Maybe bigger headlights and the front area seems a little blocky for such a sporty car.

but in anycase its really well done and it make me happy to see your making concepts.

keep them coming.

[paconavarro]

Lovely !!! great modeling !!!!!!!! you kick ass !!!!!

[Daniel]

First THANKS PEOPLE :)
I always try to do the best :drool:

@EighthDecay: No no, the Design is from Lotus Cars. I just made the 3D Modell with the Design Sketches. Check Pistonheads.com there are some info about the Ecos.

...some more pics comming this week :rolleyes:

I see, you've taken my advice into account regarding the lower front of the car :beer:

:thumbsup:

[Daniel]

thnx AYS ;)
But I changed NOTHING on the Model ;)

Right now I can't post new images, coz my server is down. And until I found a new partner the server stay down :(
So, I have to use the upload images function...
New pics soon :rolleyes:

Cya.

[EighthDecay]

well then,, thats a really great model job, looks just like the concept sketches. The red one looks bad ass.

Did you make anything for the Motor Trend Design Competition?
Mine went off this weekend and so glad its gone. So glad I don't have to work on it anymore. :)

its pretty cool to se your model on that site,, cool site by the way, never been there.

[Daniel]

Motor Trend Comp.

[EighthDecay]

nice pic daniel

it looks like a 1:24 toy because of the ground texture and the camera angle :p

[LyonHaert]

i agree. lack of depth via the lens angle kinda ruins the image. i just can't change how i see it to imagine it's a full-size vehicle. and all images but the last would not show up.

[Daniel]

Hehe Thanks, like a toy..humm...here another view.

The other pics ar enot displayed coz my server is down :thumbsdow

I made a couple of more renderings...but can't post without a server :(

Cya.

[AshmisT]

nice render!! :)

I think maybe it looks like a toy because the ground texture seems big and the DOF effect too strong toward the bottom of the pic.

Anyway, I wish I could control lightwaves modeler well enough to do that!

[ToddD]

Nice render, great model, I'd drop the camera just a touch lower, I like it!!!:thumbsup:

[Elliotjnewman]

This looks real nice. I do agree with the comments on the camera angle and DOF though, try and have none, U would have to have a really open aperture to achieve that shallow dof and at that focal length. Yeah the textures on the floor need to be smaller, perhaps add a few dirty white lines and left turn signs to the floor to see if that helps with the scale. I'm glad u havent just put the car on a shiny showroom floor though! :)

[Munson]

As people have said, it looks like the DOF is too much and I think that having something of scale reference would also help, like a curb and pavement ( sidewalk ) and lines on the floor would sell the scale better. oops, just reading more comments, like what he said..... the one above me :thumbsup:
