...

ya man..gran turismos the best, main reason i modelled this car

:D

[sebek27]

in max, can you just create points and then patch them ?? or do you make a small plane and then extrude the points from the sides ??? maybe show me a screen showing this or similar tutorial on the web.. thanks!

ya i know theres not too many honda civic fans out there
but wanted to model something u dont see too often...in 3d
haha...

:D

not bad, but there's definitely something weird going on with the bottom of the windshield. It shoulld have a smooth curve all the way down, yours does kind of an inward curve thing at the bottom. In fact, the rear window does the same thing.

Otherwise, the modeling is well done, but there's a few areas where the proportions of the car seem off.

I'm also not a big honda fan, but oh well, that's not affecting my critique of this work, which is good overall! :surprised

Maybe I don't know the car well enough, but the tires appear to be too small for the car (like they're 13 incher's or about that) and the windshield has an unusual shape to it. I've only seen them as bubbles, but this one is both convex and concave (at the bottom). Is this a mistake or is there really a car with such a windshield?

No too many fans ? Well, don't know for sure. But you're right about being different. I'm tired of seeing Audi TT's.

Excellent choice, and great looking model :thumbsup:

Nice model...can you post a Wire Frame?

[teh fury]

Looks very good, the only thing maybe is the rear lights texture, could be a lil better :)

Love Civic, keep it up. :D

[sys38]

Looks great!

I like the reflective quality of the hood better than the rest of the car though.

I would drive it.

Modelling is good, except for the minor part of the windshield and rearwindow that was already pointed out.

As for the comment on the small tires, well, the car IS a Civic. Not generally known for having sports tires, because well, it's not a racecar, it's a compact, front wheel drive car with the powerplant up front. Yes, I know the Civic (such as this spoon) does race in events, blah blah blah. (I'm beginning to rant, and it's not related to the Spoon Civic render) I just can't stand this trend with all these imports that are not, I repeat NOT, racecars. All they care about generally is making the cars look fast rather than be fast. And for lots of money. Hell, half the mods these people put on only hurt performance (ie: increased drag and increased weight). Now there are people out there who know what they're doing, and do it right, but they're in the minority it seems like.

the windshield is not supposed to be like that..must have
over looked it while modelling..i will fix it and update..along with the wheels also
