This is about an hour's worth of work, just working on the main body for now... The car itself is supposed to be a standard metro car for the year 2074, for some reason were still using tires... (Thats what the boss says. Personally i think it should be a hovercraft) But i mainly just want critiques on the body and such. What do you think should be fixed/made sexier. Whats wrong with it? ALL critiques are welcome! Btw, i KNOW the spoiler sux, i was just sorta going for a semi futuristic look, something that wouldnt ever be seen on a car today... I also relise the bumper is all ****ed up... it just needs to be modeled a little better and textured right.

Let me be frank, ever see that Simpsons episode when Homer gets to design his own car?

The car still looks like a car, i dont think vehicles in 20** will look like they do today, loose the bumper also, and make the body's drag coefficiency real low, and more streamlined.

yeah i dont think the car would really look like that either, my boss is saying that it should still look like a car, ill see what i can do, should post a new version in about 2 or 3 hours, i cant work on it till them, i think ill lower the front of the car and take off the bumper and add a "bodykit" to the sides of the car... should i rip off the thing on the hood too?

ok.... you can see the tire cause i havent added interior yet. im going to add that after i like the outside look of the car... im not even sure im going to need it since its just for a quick cinematics video, where it will only be in the video for a few seconds...

Please tell me you arent getting paid for this.:beer:

Make the windows smaller, think about opening doors in some other manner then in todays cars, make the tires bigger, lower profile, nicer rims, make the roof flatter, extend the rear and get rid of the whole "the jetsons" wing.

dude, i think thats pretty good for like an hour and a half on and off... and no im not getting paid for it yet... its just for a demo, and it doesnt really matter anymore cause we decided to go with a whole new design. ill probably post new concept design tommorow when i get a chance to work on it.

thats pretty good.. but thats not what im going for at all... im looking for futuristic... that looks like a formula1 race car which isnt futurstic at all... im going with a hovercraft now anyways... by the way, how much time have you spent on that so far?

6 hours or so, 2 nights, 3 hours each night

i didnt have any blueprints, so i just decided to make a generic prototype car.
