still: Honda NAS 1000

[prayas]

nobody posted? ok

I've followed your WIP and, man, thats something great. Just the render is not quite the quality the model is.

Fine work with c4d.

P..:

Brutal, now this is the ride I'm looking for, bye bye ducati monster. Keep it up!

Excellent attention to detail! The model itself is something wonderful, but the lighting needs to help show it off. Try a GI solution, even a fake GI lighting setup will do. Then set a spot light to shine on the bike from an angle, this way you'll get a nice contrast of light and shadow to show off the detail, backed up with soft GI shadows.

Freakin awesome model though. Way to go. :applause:

C4D rox and your modeling skills rule!! :thumbsup:

Well, I'm going to try and do my best on emphasizing on what I think about this bike.:surprised

All in all, it is very excelent, there is deffinately a lot of talent here waiting to be found, as good as that sounds I still have my problems with the bike. The envirement is not soft enough, it gives the bike to much of a fake feeling, if you understand what that means...:rolleyes:
The textures are a little loud, this may just be caused by the envirement you used which I mentioned before. The textures also give off a certain fake feeling, the glass at the front needs to have some kind of resemblence to glass, although I love the blue you used:thumbsup:
The rest of the textures need some work, I like the bike chain but it seems to look fake too:shrug:
The engine parts look kind of bad too, I know I have said this a lot, but it is really just the textures, it seems you have put a lot of hard work into modeling it, I love the texture you used for the seat cusion, though the back cusion support looks to smooth, kind of another fake thing, like the seat is more crisp, and the back support is a little to round.
This is a very nice bike, one of the best I've seen in a while. I would really like to know the programs you used, could you post like a wire frame, and a render without the textures, how many polygons did you use?

BEFORE I FORGET
I like the way the gas tank looks, the reflective makes it look real, in my opinion it blends better than the rest of the bike.:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

Would love to ride on that thing ( monster ) !:)

Great modeling !

@craiged

Yes I am your opinion. You see the mistakes that i see but i need a longer break in order to leave my errors behind me. I have no experience with textures, shaders and lights :hmm:
And this is unfortunately the best that a can do up to now :scream:.
In some weeks when the weather is better here in good old germany :rolleyes: i go out with the camera an take some pictures of my bike in order get good references about the look and the light.

I used Ciname4D XL 7.3 + without any Plugin and Photoshop. There´s are wireframe and no-texture pictures in the WIP section, search for honda.
The bike have about 70.000 polys

I've been working on the Honda NAS off and on myself, and i must say you did an excellent job. better than mine.

Love how you have all of the engine's surface features, and how you got the bikes frame nicely wrapped around it. And you also did an excellent job on the Gas tank too.

All round you did an amazing job on making Honda's North American Sport concept bike, which is very difficult to find deicent blue prints for.

If you are going to animate it. Would you know how to animate the chain and sprocket ?.....I don't.

All in all very nice. Only one additional crit. Due to the shadows the front wheel seems to be floating.
