Looks like it's gonna be pretty cool when it's all put together.

fingolfin,
Looks good so far,are you utilizing any reference material?:wavey:

[Bonstar]

So far it looks great! When can we see it all together??? Are you going to animate it?

[Fingolfin]

I'm using Lightwave 7.5
Reference Material: Toy monster truck (for internal parts) and lots of pictures (for body).
I'm finishing up modeling the body.
Then I have to texture it.
Yes, I will animate it.

OK, I've more or less finished my model (may need a bit of tweeking). I'm starting to shade. Here's the update:

Here it is with the tires on.
Any comments?

[Bonstar]

That looks great! Are you going to change the texture to make it look a little more metallic? Also I think that the front looks a little light, there seems to be a lot of empty space, and it looks as though there should be something there:shrug: but if you are woking off a model then I guess it's right... sorry if I am confusing you!

[Fingolfin]

Yeah, I'm trying to get the texture for the body right. not sure what I can do. The front end is a little small (by the headlights). I'm working off of some pictures of different trucks (no one in particular). So this truck really does not exist. It's more like a hybrid. I still have to add lights on top.
I'm using lightwave. Anyone got any suggestions on how to get the paint job to look more photo realistic? I'm trying fresnel.
