[87Supra]

That's a different way to start....but it looks very good so far. I can't wait to see it finished.

[AcidBoyXL]

[AcidBoyXL]

Found some time for a little update...

[IDownupI]

..Hmm

I must say this kick ass. The first post you made i first think this look real.

Please Can you make a close image on the tires.. Look so real.:airguitar

[boxcrash]

Nice, looks really good so far.

Couple things, the front end should have a slighter curve in it. Also on the wheels the spokes, 5 of them should be a little fatter and the others skinner.

there is no way you are a noob! That is some amazing stuff. :bounce:

[AcidBoyXL]

I've updated the wheels. Thx for that ref. image. here it is

cheers :beer:

[boxcrash]

Oh yeah, AWESOME job on the wheels, great job.:thumbsup:

I like the chrome, polished aluminium look. The originals where Magnesium, which not for sure what they are now or avaliable options.
That was when I was still a certified BMW technician, and they had just came out.
good job.:)

[AcidBoyXL]

Just a question :rolleyes: , what software are you useing and is the model done (not yet finished - but so far so good) with shapes or nurbs or box-modelling ?:shrug:

:bounce: :bounce:

[phoenix2k]

Here are some images of a chassis/drivetrain I was constructing, they are of my own concept and design, of course no textures on anything or really materials for that much.:)

Everything is modeled.

[Nosalis]

Very good work there. Details are really awesome.

Only two things I`m not sure about is
1. I think that wheel rim looks a little bit different.

2. I dont know, if a M5 has a clear optics lights. Maybe in US it does. But also, I think, that it looks different.

I know, It is still W.I.P, just to let you know.

http://a332.g.akamai.net/f/332/936/12h/www.edmunds.com/edweb/cook/m5/media/00.bmw.m5.r3-4.640.jpg
http://a332.g.akamai.net/f/332/936/12h/www.edmunds.com/edweb/cook/m5/media/00.bmw.m5.wheel.350.jpg

[meshwolf]

:drool:

Yes, the M5 has clear LED-type rear lights from 2001 ->. It also has the bi-xenon front lights with "angel-eyes". The lights in front and rear are the same on all 5-series (E39 body), no matter if they are on a 520i or a M5. It was facelifted on the MY2001 though. The M5 posted by Nosalis is a MY2000 if I'm not mistaken.

The rims in the rear should be a bit wider than the front rims. Front rims are 8,5"x18" with 235/45-18 and the rear are 10"x18" with 275/35-18. Looking at your model I'd say that you should narrow the front rims a bit.

Excellent modelling dude! :applause:

[Nosalis]

It seems that youre certain of what you are talking. So you`re probbably right. I like the MY2000 version better, but, you`re right. I`ll try to find out more about MY2001 M5.
I thought, that M5 is different form BMW 5 sedan, so it can have different lights. But if you are sure, I cannot say it is not like that. You probbably know it better than me.

As the Rims. It seems a little bit tight for me, than you have. I didn`t mean that you have wider rims. ( But it looks that you have same rims on front and rear wheels) :))

Anyway, ... you are a very good modeler. I just voice my oppinion

[Sez]

Very nice work AcidBoyXL!

Clean modeling as I like it! Can't wait to see it finished!

Keep it up!

:beer: :buttrock:

[AcidBoyXL]

Hi, thanks for all comments, i will make those tail lights a little less transparent, but first i will finish modeling i gues. I appreciate all crits. Those rims..hmm i gues that the edges are a little too sharp and i didint make them at size yet, that i will do :thumbsup:

cheers :beer:

[grossemann]

This is totally fantastic. You are getting total precision with subd!!!!
Great job and pls keep posting!:applause:

[mwkmn]

Lotsa progress :scream:

However, looking at the real picture of the car, I noticed that the area between the taillight and the license plate should be wider on both sides...

...If that picture and what you're making are the same model, I guess :p

Anyways, waiting for some more updates! :bounce:

[Nosalis]

To: mwkmm

His model is not exactly the one, as on the picuter, I was told.
On the net pictures is model year 2000 while Acidboy makes my2001. So Maybe, there could be a difference, ... but not big.'

Anyway, this is one of the best models I`ve ever seen. Great work there on modeling.

What method have you used ? Do you have some kind of tutorial ?

M5 has clear LED-type rear lights? I don`t think so. Can you post a picture which proves it? I haven`t found none. All I find was exactly the same as a pictures I`ve posted before

[AcidBoyXL]

Hallo guys, ill post a image of the back of 2001 model, the area betwen the tail lights is diferent in US version and the lights are not completly clear, and i try to change them but right now i donk know exactly how :drool: (dont know how to set brazil glass to look like those on pic) mayby i just use some othe material..

here's the pic:
http://pimg.163.com/sms/jiazi/bmw/BMW%20M5%20E39%20Sedan%202001%20-%2003.jpg

cheers and thx for comments :beer:

[mwkmn]

Ahh, now I get it, because they have different shapes for license plate in Europe and North America :hmm:

Just fix up the middle row of the taillight (to those horizontal bumps) and rear will look just perfect :thumbsup:

[meshwolf]

Excellent picture of the MY2001 M5 there. To model the lights I would take a long hard look at how they really are built. As I said all E39 of the same MY no matter if it's a M5 or a 520 have identical lights, so just take a stroll to your local BMW-dealer and look at a car there.

I'd do the lights with some thickness by doing an outer and an inner piece. The inner one with bumps and the outer smooth. I would also model the reflector for the turnsignal and lower part of the rearlight to add som depth to them. The middle part however doesn't have any real depth as it's only LED's.

Most often they have a 525iM (or some E39 with M-kit) which also has the M aerodynamic package (front and rear and sideskirts from the M, bootlid wing, M chassis and sport seats). Most people won't be able to tell the difference between that and a real M5. What the real M5 has that the M-equipped cars doesn't is oval sideview mirrors and oval rearview mirror, dual exhaust and some minor interior details.

:beer:

[AcidBoyXL]

Hi, got over some part of exam's in shool... I've changed that taillight material a bit but it still needs some tweaking i gues.. what do you think ?

http://www.max3d.pl/forum/viewthread.php?action=attachment&tid=3807&pid=40374

cheers :beer:

[boxcrash]

This is looking great so far. Great that you have modeled the proximity sensors in the bumper too.

The tailights look better, but to frosty, like frosted plastic now.:)

[The Blue Forest]

pretty darn awesome!
nice work

lol...........don't forget they also have the M62TU motor, Dual Vanos.:cool:

They also only come in a 6speed.......they do have the proximity sensors, which might have changed but the E39 (525, 535, 540)did not come with these standard front and rear, also M kits would not add those for the none M's. Also they have auto tire pressure monitoring. Also the standard IE, rain sensor.
Yeah, the mirrors fold up too.
Some of which you already mentioned, also other things I have forgot, considering I was a BMW certified technician almost 3.5 years ago. These, the X5 and Z8 where new right before I left.:)

Sorry, I like to add my two cents about cars, since I have been working on them most my life, I am not trying to brag........just fit in....or maybe be accepted.:shrug: :wip: :p

[AcidBoyXL]

Yeah, i dont like those light too, must tweak them... Here's something BIIIG :arteest:

http://www.forum3d.kom-net.pl/f3dbb/post_pics/15064_0.jpg

PS. I forgot to meshsoomth the rims but they dont look that bad i gues

cheers :beer:

[nibo]

Look'n good dude!

[boxcrash]

Oh yeah, this is looking very sweet!! Clean mesh too, if those wheels are not m-smoothed yet.
Great job so far, keep it ups.:) :buttrock:

note: is the dual grille a little small, or the angle?

[meshwolf]

Boxcrash -> You know your BMW's, no doubt about that. I'll give you a call when my M62 is acting weird. ;)

I just noticed when looking at the bonnet that it's way too flat. When I modeled a 5-series I spent half the time getting the bonnet right. It bulges in every direction. I could attach a photo of my car where that is painfully obvious, if needed.

I also agree about that grille looking a tad small, and also a bit flat in the ribs. There should be 10 ribs, and they are slightly curved at the top and bottom.

Keep going! I want to see this model finished and stunning!

[AcidBoyXL]

Thx, for your help, I was just doing the bonnet and I will spend more time to tweak the geometry.. Yeah its a hell of a bonnet in that model :p

cheers :beer:

[boxcrash]

some reason the a-pillar area, hood crease seams a little odd?

Maybe it is not, if not ignore me, but I attatched a image with a circle of what I am talking about.

[AcidBoyXL]

Yeah it was a little odd, I fixed that i think, how's that?

[MDB101]

Actually.. If you gunna go for da realistic way..I would add the place on the wheels..where u pump the air into? Im looking at your wheels there..how yah supposed to like put air in those tires? are the tires pruly rubber? hehe just my thoughts..

[boxcrash]

Originally posted by MDB101

Yeah thats good, "valve stems". They do have automatic tire monitoring and inflation but still they do have valve stems for manual inflating.

...sorry, Acid, guess I am a "AcidBoyXL M5 w.i.p" fanboy.:D :hmm: :eek: :rolleyes: :surprised :p

[viper11885]

wow, very nice model of the m5.. i love the m5 :D

i really like the detail that you put into this car.. looks like you got everything spot on.. good work and keep it up.. can't wait for more updates :)

[AcidBoyXL]

I made the bottom, that will be usefull for later back shots... its not original, i made it from my head but it will do. Also made some hdri test, its only to see how does the car paint look...

AcidBoyXL:

really sweet modelling

but how did you do the car paint?

[AcidBoyXL]

thats a brazil car paint, previously was something wrong with the hdri, I think that it looks better now. I am busy with my shool now but in a couple of days will finish this baby... i hope

cheers :beer:

http://www.forum3d.kom-net.pl/f3dbb/post_pics/16240_0.jpg

[boxcrash]

Looking good. :) :buttrock:

I still think the tailights have a little too much noise in them, they look a little too much like TV noise, maybe just me....but thats what me thinks.:)

[heiyuu]

By Finish you mean putting on some hamman parts right? RIGHT?!?!?!?

[flamedevil]

That looks good, i agree with boxcrash about the taillight, reduce a bit the noise, add some bump and make it more refractive and reflective.

Good luck !

[AcidBoyXL]

hi, after some dayz in school I worked one day on the interior.. about those tail lights... I'm working on it but still cant get that wanted look... but this will come i think

http://landspeed.mine.nu/3d/wip/toyota_supra/supra03.jpg

as you see

do you have any tips?

[AcidBoyXL]

i think its becouse that you have white background, try 2 put some hdri in environment :arteest: then copy it with instace too materiall editor and set spherical environment too the map...then put on some plane on the ground (in brazil CSG Server or create it your self) and mayby try to play with IOR... i think that should do.. :beer:

[acre]

Nice Work!!1

[arlechinu]

i stand amazed... :drool:

as a big bmw fan to another, let me tell you that the car looks great so far!

how did u do the interior? i mean, how did u make it fit exactly inside the car? did u clone some of the exterior elements then scaled them down and moved them inwards or sth like that?

keep up the great work! :thumbsup:

[boxcrash]

Looking great.:thumbsup:

Rear headrests are a little small though, or appear to be.

[breud]

great work dude;

only one thing though: MERCEDES FOREVER! :wip:

[plaguelord]

AMAZING!!! :buttrock: :buttrock: :buttrock: :buttrock: :buttrock:

can you show me what setting are you using for the glass?
when we can se the front seats??
and yeah, reduce the noise of the taillight can look better.

cheers!

[AcidBoyXL]

how did u do the interior? i mean, how did u make it fit exactly inside the car? did u clone some of the exterior elements then scaled them down and moved them inwards or sth like that?
yeah something like that :p .. I extrude the border and then select tat new polys and detach them 2 new object..
can you show me what setting are you using for the glass?
thats brazli glass, IOR of reflection is 1,6, refraction is 1,5, spec. level 90, glossiness 60 with fallof map. :arteest:
when we can se the front seats??
I got 3 exam's this friday and after that I will have 3 months free :beer: :beer: so next update is gonna comme after this friday 13 :hmm: hope that i pass

How did you setup car paint material? I allways have problem with reflection. I cannot setup how much shoud it reflect. The way it reflects in standert is too much. Do you have some advice ?

thanks

[AcidBoyXL]

if setting up the IOR is not satisfying, try to mess with flakes, it could give you some nice effect. first set the size of flakes, then amout, spread... you can also change the falloff in diffuse setting. Im no pro in materials but maybe could help.

I think, that rims are too much reflective. And reflection is sharp, it should be more glossy. Rest is ok.

Looking fwd to another car from you

[AcidBoyXL]

[boxcrash]

Sweet man, I like that you are doing the interior.

Cool, I even see the nav screen.:) :thumbsup:
Yeah the M5 does have the MFL(multi-function) 3 spoke steering wheel, they put it in some of the E46 328 ci, probably now the 330 ci(I think it is CI(Coupe Injected) for the coupe and IC(Injected Cabrio) for the cabrio/convertibles, been over 3 years, so I forget stuff. :) )
