vehicle: Jeep Prototype

[Volcandro]

Ok !
This is the beginning,
I'll start by the back of the jeep and gona add the details after the final shape.
The image is done with 3d max and rendered with the lightracer.

[jdsb]

would be interesting to see the development of this model.

[Ozzman]

looking forward your updates

[Volcandro]

wip no 2
3 hours of modelling past ...

http://www.angelfire.com/ak5/bingo/car0.jpg

[jdsb]

awesome so far ,keep going

[Volcandro]

It's going slowly but i'm satisfied with the result.
I'll keep working on tomorrow.

[Volcandro]

Hello again
My second journey of modelling begin . Here's the latest jeep evolution pic of my model.
Hope you enjoy

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.3.jpg

[Cryptite]

I think this is coming along quite nicely. I like the amount of detail that you are putting in! Keep it coming! I can't wait to see the final result. BTW, with what did you make that concept? I like how perfect it is, for I imagine that made the modeling process alot easier.

[Volcandro]

I start by drawing the shape on paper, after that i copy the drawing into photoshop and start working on layers. First i'll make a rough shetch in photoshop and after that I use the line tool to make the lines in the second layer. That's it ;)
It's very basic shape and it's good for the model reference.
Sorry for my english ...

[Volcandro]

Ok, after 2 hours of modelling and studying the model i'll add some details and change a little bit the shape of the jeep.

For now the model is build of 23590 polys.

[Volcandro]

A little test with temporary wheels...

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.5.jpg

[RmachucaA]

Suspension? where are the shocks? springs? dampers? Sway bars? steering linkage? and more importantly..... when the front wheels turn, they will rub.

maybe it doesnt have to turn?lol

[RmachucaA]

oh yeah... i forgot... its futuristic right? well, i bet that by then, they will have genetically modified midgit slaves that fit under the car and every time you want to turn, they all lift the car and rotate... how cool is that!!!*sarcasm off*...... i Really look for practicality and functionality, its my nature.

Any updates?

[Volcandro]

After two days off (job) I'm back with some new stuff.
For the suspension, shocks etc... i'm gonna work on it later.
Here's some new details.


Render time 6 min 49http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.66.jpg

[ScottSonnenberg]

WIP does not actually mean every two hours from a cube.

But, it is looking good so far.

[Ozzman]

Nice progress, nice design. I am looking forward final render :))
Can you post some wires pls. Thanks

[Incitatus]

Nice modeling. *thumbes up*

But please for the love of god don't call it 'beast', ...oh so lame.

[Sceme]

more..MORE!!.....must see more. Looks great so far

[Volcandro]

Back again with some new details.
I'll change the name of the car, i'll call it ''RAIDER''
It is better ???
Thanks for all the comments, I very appreciate.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.7.jpg

[Volcandro]

And here's the wireframe
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/carwireframe.jpg

[Volcandro]

For now, I think the exterior of the jeep is correct. So I'll start to modeling the interior, beginning by the seats.
Hope you enjoy.

[Raphaël_f]

Hi everybody.
This is my first post in this forum. It's seem to be very nice here.

I'm a beginner in 3D, I'm using 3Dsmax 5.1 and I'm very impressed in the way lots of people (like you Volcandro) render the objects, like if it was plaster. Your jeep is very beautiful, and it very looks like a sculture.

Could someone explain how to obtain this result?
Thank you very much.
Have a nice day

[jeffro]

Rendering is going to add a lot to the vehicle. It looks really good so far though. Nice to see your progression on this project. I like it when people post that.

[Volcandro]

Sure, I can explain you what's the technique Raphaël_f
. But sorry for my english ;)

Ok, first you have to place an omni light in your scene. Secondly create a skylight from your lights menu. Place it whenever you want.
The second etape is activate the light. Press 9 and then select the lightracer option. The configuration is good, but you can adjust the initial sample spacing and ''the subdivide to'' option for better results. The higher is the faster...
The other option that give better results is the ray bias, for better results up it to .9 or something like 1.3 that's gonna affect the shadows.
Finally take an oren nayar blinn shader, up the specular level and the glossiness a little bit and add a falloff to the reflection slot. Adjust the falloff type to fresnel, and finally press F9 for the final render.
That's it !
If you have questions don't hesitate.

Peace

[Spirit2029]

hey vol...lookin awesome!! reminds me of the jeep from final fantasy...cant wait to see some really sweet textures on it..

Spirit2029

[Volcandro]

I forget one thing Raphaël_f.
You have to change the exposition control of the light. To do that, press 8 and select logarithmic exposure control active. This option give more light to the scene from all the sides.

[Volcandro]

Thanks for the comments guys the jeep is going finished very slowly but i'm gonna finish it from beginning to the end. :)

For the references, yes i'm inspired by a lot of cars... final fantasy jeep, hummers, sport jeeps etc... The way i work is improvisation with all.

[Raphaël_f]

THANK YOU SO MUCH Volcandro!!!

My work's render is 1000 time better now than before.
I'm modeling a Ferrari Modena for school.
Thank you again.
I hope we will seen your new works soon.

[pLoty]

You'we got great model there, keep it up!!! I' want to see more...

[Volcandro]

An interior in developpement. Tell me what you think about the seats please. Now it's time to do the seatbelts... someone have a good cool references of sport models ?




Rendering time 35 minutes !!! oulala
Polys: 175243
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.78.jpg

[pLoty]

Good job so far, sorry, but I don't know anything about seatbelts :(

[OCT]

Yea, i agree about the seat belts. Maybe add some handles for them to hold onto instead. Because i wouldn't think in an assualt or whatever they could get out easy. Then agian I don't know what this vehicle is being used for. I just assumed some kind of militance.

Looks great though, i love the ammount of detailt that you are puting into this [Detail never hurt anyone] :)

Keep it up!

[Volcandro]

Another view.

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.79.jpg

[Volcandro]

What you think about this style of seat belt guys?

http://www.mastercraftseats.com/photos/5ptclip-in.jpg

The problem is the installation hehehe

[commy]

awesome model i think u could funk the seats up a bit they look kinda all in one ish maybe thats what ure goign for i dunno it just looks like a vehcial which should be more modular and functional. maybe a metal frame round the seats etc? that way ud have something to put ure belts oh and it would look more ruff and ready. atm it looks like theres a very stripped down future jeep with the seats from some kind of modern people carrier lol

great stuff tho :)

[Volcandro]

Hehehe, i'm gonna add 2 other straps to it to be sure that the persons don't fly through the windows.
I'm not sure i'll gonna add windows to the vehicle. It's a desert vehicle maybe. For the metal around the seats is a good idea yes.

[Volcandro]

The beginning.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.81.jpg

[Ozzman]

Well this "start" of your safety belts looks much more better than real ones!!! GOOD JOB

[Volcandro]

The front seat in progress.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.82.jpg
I'm gonna detail the seat better.

[Meowthing]

Nice, love the progress screenies :)

[pLoty]

Nice, keep it up!
Can you zoom last pic, I love it!

[Volcandro]

Thanks for your comments guys, I work hard ;)

[Volcandro]

The seat belts are fixed time to add metal plates around the seat.

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.85.jpg
Render time 7min 56


I think no much rays cause the darker regions around the center of the seat belt. hmmm


http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.86.jpg
This one 20 minutes and looks better.
The model is now 231572 polys without the wheels and interior finished. The budget is 500 000 polys.

[Volcandro]

What's coming next ?
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/changements.jpg

[Volcandro]

Hello again.
Someone can help me to find a good server to up my images ???
Thank you very much.

[LordIron2k]

@ volcandro: If u want i can upload ur pics on my ftp.

[Volcandro]

Thanks LordIron2k but the server is ok now.
A little update from today.
Tell me what you think please.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.90.jpg

[infi]

looks too "roundish" in comparision with the overall "edgy" design

[Volcandro]

Better like this ???
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.901.jpg

[Volcandro]

Finally, i'm gonna keep this model.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.903.jpg
264 301 polys.

[Volcandro]

After 2 days off, I'm back on the project.
Completion time 30 minutes.
Render time 3min26
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.904.jpg

[RedFish]

looking good really like the design, where did you come up with it??

[Volcandro]

Just for a personnaly challenge. My idea was to model an ultra detailed model for my portfolio. I need a job ;)

[Spirit2029]

lookin good man...one suggestion though..its lookin a little top heavy..maybey try to slim its profile down a bit.. not such a high roll bar/body...would make it look like it has a better center of gravity..right now it looks tipsy..

Spirit2029

[Volcandro]

For the suspension it's gonna be something like that.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/frontsuspensionwhole3.jpg

[Volcandro]

The transmission and the wireframe of the beginning of the interior.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.906.jpg

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.907.jpg

[infi]

hmm I would kill that gearbox pretty fast, because I would always try to shift in reverse when I want the 4th gear

[Volcandro]

The profile in progress.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.909.jpg

[Volcandro]

My 8 day of working on the model.
35 hours of work.
The interior looks correct.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.914.jpg

[_The_Paladin_]

it looks really good. no c&c from me

[Volcandro]

Here's the podium for the jeep.

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.911.jpg
Now it's time to work on the suspension,wheels and finally the super gun machine. I'm gonna texture the model later.

[Volcandro]

Last post for today.
The wheels are adjusted to the podium. Suspension missing...
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.915.jpg

[asylum24]

looks good so far only thing... I would never buckle that 5th buckle(the crotch one) I was in a firnds jeep offroading and had 5 points in it and I was wearing it and we actually rolled over(pretty damn scary) and thank god I was but my god that crotch buckle will rip your nuts off... I'll stick to my fast, low to the ground, non rollable, car wtih 4 point harness but anyway good job... only thing I would do is make the steering wheel wider...like not as rectangular... just an Idea.. just seems really small... but yea I would so ruin that gear box with R being where 4th is supposed to be

[magic6435]

You wouldent by any chance be working on the new jurrasic park movie ? :)

pretty sweet dude

[jdsb]

pretty decent modeling,keep it up.

[bluestar77]

Excellent concept, Volcandro. I think it's the attention to detail that makes it work so well.

[Volcandro]

Back again guys, thanks for you comments.
A little render of the interior + the buckles on the right place.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.917.jpg
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.918.jpg

[pLoty]

Great work so far, but shouldn't seatbelts be lose?

[Ozzman]

Whoah -nice modeling dude!!
I am looking forward texturing :))

[Volcandro]

Another journey of modelling.
The wheels are finished, i'm working on the suspension now.
The model have now 385882 polygones and it's not optimized.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.919.jpg

[Waters]

This is just amazing stuff. I wish I had your creativity. Your original concept image really didnt have much in the way of detail, but you have gone from that simple image, and created so much detail, and it all works very well together. Great imagination, and great modeling. I'll be watching this thread.

[Volcandro]

Hello !
The back suspension is finished. Time for the front.

http://www.angelfire.com/ak5/bingo/car0.923.jpg
http://www.angelfire.com/ak5/bingo/car0.924.jpg

[Volcandro]

I need help for the textures.
Please send me some good tutorials on shading the car. What kind of shader for what part etc... You can also share your techniques. Thank you very much.
I need something like this for shaders.
http://www.angelfire.com/ak5/bingo/shader.jpg

[Volcandro]

Start shading. Procedural only.
Help me with the textures please.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.925.jpg

[Ozzman]

Tire is good. Try more mate (and disk ...) I think youre on a good way. Good luck

[JDMedia]

Very nice model man! Try an shiny material with fresnel reflection on it!

[anoe_nomus]

volcandro:: u r a mad man;;; and by that i mean u r a modeling god, did u use NURBS or Polys?
as for texturing, there is really good one on 3dtotal.com
good luck. keep up the good work

[marc31]

I give you this photos that i make, is posible that it help you with the car textures.
I put it in this url, in two days I quit it.

[Volcandro]

Hola!

Thank you for the tips guys.

- Anoe_nomus, the model is modeling in polys, I use spline a lot with the new shell modifier in max 6, very good modifier....

- And for the textures Marc31.
Your textures are very good, maybe i'm gonna use the dirty ones.
Thank you for all.

I have no idea what material to use for the mag (disk) anyone have an idea ??? You know aluminimum ...

[Volcandro]

Shader test.
Do you like the shader and color ???

http://www.angelfire.com/ak5/bingo/shader.jpg


I think the Top colour is much better!

try that, i think it would suit the Jeep due to it being quite futuristic.

[Volcandro]

I go with the yellow one, maybe change the color later.
Last render for today. I'm gonna modelling the front suspension and the gun this week.
Hope you like it :)


Render time: 38 min with the lightracer
Polys: 426190 polys


http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.933.jpg

[swee7an]

Thumbs up http://www.cgtalk.com/images/icons/icon14.gif

wow, great work man, really like it

i think yellow is more for sport cars ... and with this color it doesn't look like any "war machine"

i think it would be better if you had it in the other color "the upper hammer"

also if you could paint it like the army hammers (i don't know what that color is called but i mean the one which has like 3 colors light green, dark green and maybe light brown) ?

it looks cool in the yellow though

[RealViper]

I always looking this good thread and everything on your car is great, but now I have to say something about this awful color:

Please change it!!! Or it will be fine four your enemies to get a good target... :-)

[Cryptite]

Yea.. I agree with RealViper; that color is pretty hideous, and I always have thought that for cars. I quite believe that the blue chrome color in the above and aforementioned pictures would look damn fine on this beautiful work of art. This is one of the most detailed models I've seen in awhile. Keep up the great work!

[veto]

i think yellow fits pretty good, but you really should make it dirty ;)

swee7an: the word you are searching for is called camouflage ;)

[Volcandro]

Sorry guys but it's a desert jeep. For the color is just temporary. I'm gonna desaturate the model a little bit for some desert color and add some dirty texture on it. For the camouflage, i'm not sure but that's gonna hide all the little details on the jeep ? Maybe not ...

[Volcandro]

I'm searching for something like this for the texture.
http://raph.com/3dartists/artgallery/cristea_andrei1.jpg

With a reflection on the jeep it could be better. But this is for the final render :)

[swee7an]

Volcandro

yellow looks very good on alot of cars, i love the yellow hammer ...

anyway, here is a link that i hope you will benefit from

http://www.3dtotal.com/team/tutorials/daniel_basic/daniel_basicp_01.asp

[Volcandro]

Thank you swee7an, but I don't uderstand how to do this : use a good background image (HDRI, for very good results). This is using Max5's advanced rendering with a .hdr image as the skylight. (3dtotal)
How the hdri works ??? Anyone have an idea. I have some hdri images but don't know how to use it. Help me please.

[swee7an]

i am sorry Volcandro, i don't really know who the HDRI thing works, but take a look at this website, it might be helpfull :)

http://athens.ict.usc.edu/HDRShop/main-pages/tutorials.html

also check this tutorial :

http://www.splutterfish.com/gabry_hdri_tut_tmp/

[JDMedia]

http://design.jdmedia.nl/3d/advancedchrome.jpg

This pic, shows you what HDRI does, it's just like a big image that goes around your scene, like clouds around the earth! It's a fake environment!

[Volcandro]

Another test color. I think shader is better like that.

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.936.jpg

[pLoty]

Hve no comment, but THAT'S GREAT!!!

[PsychoSilence]

thats hell of a nice jeep !

like the futuristic and minimalistic style(i mean the driving comfort of cause !).

put it in a nice dirty or maybe sandy surrounding !

great job

[Volcandro]

Hi !
The jeep is finished now, the only things I have to work on is the machine gun at the back , textures and the background. Gonna send a new w.i.p today.

[Volcandro]

Here's another angle.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.938.jpg

[Sceme]

i love this thing!!!!!...perfect...ah. Nothing bad to say about it :)

[Volcandro]

A little test with a background.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.940.jpg

[Volcandro]

A concept for the back machinegun.
Comments are welcome.

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/gun.jpg

And the beginning of the model
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/basicshape.jpg

[Gremlin]

@Volcandro:
render looks pretty cool, but that material looks a bit fake... it's probably due to the fact that the background's lighting doesnt match up with the scene's lighting!

[Volcandro]

An elevator concept I'm made quickly in photoshop for the Jeep. I'm gonna modeling it after the machinegun.

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/jeepelevator.jpg
Inspired by the one from Final Fantasy movie :)

[Spirit2029]

hey volcandro this looks way better now that u lowered its profile..got the tire and suspension happenin.. I dont know if anyone has mentioned it already..didnt have the time to read through..but the seats still look a bit off to me. They need to be bigger..they make it look like a huge huge vehical...and if thats what your going for great.. I'd like to see it a little more crowded though..so bigger seats..cockpit filling up more of the frame room..

but like I said..awesome model man..love the details...and I can see what your tryin to do with the color...get some dirtmaps and scratches on there..and it'll be amazin..

Spirit2029

[marc31]

I hope that you soil it

[Volcandro]

Spirit 2029 I'm gonna leave the seats like that cause the soldiers must have space for equipments :)

marc31 thank you for your textures. but before texturing I have to finish modelling the gun and the elevator.

A pic of the machinegun, maybe need more details ???
Need critics.

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.943.jpg

[swee7an]

hello,

great work so far ...

I THINK that the gun is little thin...

for details, hmmmm ...

* what about a safety switch ?
* Bullets holder (or whatever they call it)
* stand ( when it is not mounted on the vehicle)
* what about attaching a grenade launcher ?

take a look at other weapons and see maybe you get a new or more ideas.

[Volcandro]

swee7an thank you for the tips. I work on two models now, the gun and the elevator for the jeep so I'm gonna post some new images today.

Here's the beginning of the elevator.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.946.jpg

[swee7an]

nice elevator

i have few Qs.

* do you use mesh smooth? or smoothing groups ?
* how did you model the tire ? its pretty nice and clean http://www.cgtalk.com/images/icons/icon14.gif

[Volcandro]

Hi swee7an, I don't use meshsmooth, just smoothing groups (auto smooth about 15 -25)
For the tire is the same technique. I found a tutorial at this page who show you If that could help you. http://www.danielbuck.net/tire_tut/tiretut.htm

See ya

[Volcandro]

Another post with some details.
Time to work on the top part.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.947.jpg

[asylum24]

so what exactly is going to be lowering the elevator?

[Volcandro]

It's top secret asylum24 hehehe
No seriously, I don't really know for this moment but maybe an helicopter or an entry for a desert cavern. I think the cavern is a better choice what do you think ???

[pLoty]

I'd like the helicopter version more... I realy like your work so far...
:)

[Volcandro]

Finally, I think the helicopter is an good idea but I go with the desert cavern. Maybe modelling the helicopter later ...
The elevator is finish.
3 lights without lightracer
2 min of rendering :)
87950 polys

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.950.jpg

[Volcandro]

Last render for today.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.952.jpg

[MrEnigma]

I really like the style of these models.

[PsychoSilence]

wow ! thought the lift would be installed on the back of the jeep :D

[phoenix]

very neat..really nice

[MaxxQ]

Very nice...that last render gave me the impression of a Syd Mead painting (in my book, that's a compliment).

[pLoty]

Keep it up, cant wait to see more...

[Volcandro]

Thanks for the comments, I start a little texturing, need some crits on it.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.955.jpg

[asylum24]

looks alot better now. before I think there was just too much contrast with the black and orange but not im likin it alot. if you dont already, make sure to put a bump map on it so those scratches will look better

[Protoplasma]

holla thats great stuff so far.. I love the lift idea, especially those design. the texturing is a beginning but almost too regular in my eyes.. at your yellow/black version you given several detailes another(black) color than the main(yellow) one. I`d try to keep this scheme up !
great work !

[Volcandro]

Like this one ???
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.957.jpg

[pLoty]

Add more dirt on some places...

[Volcandro]

This time I think the jeep is dirty :)

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.958.jpg

[swee7an]

wow , great job there ...

what about shifting the dirt dehind the wheels like if it was mud came out from the tires ! ;)

[Protoplasma]

yes this one`s better in my eyes... fits the design better I`d say.

[RedFish]

hey this is looking great keep it up

[Volcandro]

Yo !
Another concept for the scene.
All in photoshop. Fit with the jeep ?
Thank you for all the replys guys.
All your comments are really helpful.
Sorry for my basical english hehe I'll try ...
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/helicowings.jpg

The next one is an hovercraft (have it on paper now) and the military base ... all for the final scene.
Send the concepts when finished.
A+

[RealViper]

Hey, great draft. It looks like the flying version from your jeep...

Keep it up, I'm nosy which color you will use... ;-)

[Volcandro]

Ooook here's the hovercraft concept. And my last model for today.

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/hover01.jpg

[Bulba]

Very good model. Put some painting on the model!

[magic6435]

From one of my fav songs

"DUDE you fU*CKING ROCK!"


i know you did not do the concepts with a mouse right. wacom ?

[Rano]

It's a very nice model! Really awesome! But don't push this model on the background as you did with the elevator.

[Volcandro]

Thank you for commenting

magic6435 yes I use a little wacom tablet for the concepts. Very very useful.

Here's a little beginning of the helicopter model. Very early stage, about 30 minutes to do this with the shell modifier. Love this new tool ...

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/helico01.jpg

[Volcandro]

Today another concept for the scene. This concept is inspired by a star wars ships.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/vaisseauconcept.jpg

[Volcandro]

Another one.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/vaisseauconcept2.jpg

[Volcandro]

Inspiration from a scarabee.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/scevaisseau.jpg

[Volcandro]

A little top view of new concept. 20 minutes of work.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/vaisseau3.jpg

What do you think ?

[Volcandro]

I have an motorcycle concept and the final hangar (base) concept in progress. I'm gonna send it later. That's a lot of stuff to modeling but that's the goal :)

[Volcandro]

Back with the jeep today.
The machinegun is untextured but the modelling is finished.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.963.jpg

[pLoty]

Nice model, lot of work to do... Keep it up...

[Volcandro]

Another concept for the scene.
Hope you enjoy.
http://www.redrival.com/bingo/robot1.jpg

[Volcandro]

Hi guys,
After some good weekend, I'm back with the elevator model :)
If someone would help me with texturing msg me.
Thank you.

http://www.redrival.com/bingo/car0.965.jpg

[Sceme]

mmm..nice colors :) love this

[pLoty]

If someone would help me with texturing msg me.
- I don't understand...
Keep up a good work.

[Volcandro]

Yo...Joe! Nothing like bring G.I. Joe out of mothballs.
Great job. I think you were heading in the right direction with the textures. All you really need to focus on is the dirt and paint missing. There is also the point of making it a flat paint. who really wants to fight in a bright yellow truck anyways. Unless you are G.I. Joe.

wow! that is totally fantastic!!!!!!

great job man.

personally, im not keen on the robot or the spaceship, they seem a few ages ahead. they are a little futuristic for a jeep and a helicopter, if you see what i mean?

cant wait to see the cavern fully done, its going to be like thurderbirds!

GFX I'm agree with you, so finally I'm gonna just put the helicopter, the jeep with the elevator and the base model in the scene.
Thank you for the reflection GFX ;)
