Hello,

Here's one of my wip projects. This is a McLaren formula1 concept car.I'm a McLaren fan and motorsports slave.So i tried to make a concept racing car.
This is a car completely out of f1 rules. two huge air compressors and coolers mounted on two sides of the car which supply cold pressured air to the v8 engine mounted on the mid-back of the car. i modeled the engine and other parts as well...some friends said it wasn't good with aerodynamic forces.that's right but as i started to think about the final look of the car i wished it to look like more robotic.so it's not very important to make it look like aerodynamic...We can't tell it unless we test it in a wind tunnel anyway:)

i'll add more detail on the car like more small wings or connection pieces for the wings. texturing was not good so i removed the textures. The textured one is rendered on mental ray.(there are some parametric problems i know).. And the orange ones are rendered on vray.

Please tell me what you think guys.

Thank you.

Very nice job ! the edges of the tires are too sharp, though. But it's just a WIP, right? The body part behind the driver's head is a bit too high IMO, and the vents should be oriented the other way, "aerodynamically speaking".

The nose looks a bit fragile, but the whole is terrific! Much nicer than real ones !
I love the air coolers !:thumbsup:
Keep up the good work!
