new car wheel


#1

I made this improved car wheel in Rhino. This time and from here on in I’m always going to use reference pic. Trying to render it in C4d crashed my machine due to lack of memory, file too big. Rhino did quite a nice job in my view. I also saw that there’s no Rhino tutorial for car wheel so i wrote a detailed one. Write for a FREE tute! Never before seen on the web!!

Hope u like

Good try with this image, I think it would work on a smaller scale but there are a few things that need correcting, first the hub is faceted and needs a phong shader of some description applied to it. The hub also feels like it should be recessed into the tyre somewhat and finally I feel the tread is overlapping the sides of the tyres too much.
However the geometry and the general form is accurate and works well and while the hub is simple it is still effective and stylish.

Good luck with your project.

add some substructures to your materials and some datas like perimeter etc

Tnx for comments
I know u’d prefer a scene but my point was to show the result of a. working with a ref pic and b. paying close attention to details. After all, this is in my view the first classy model after 3 yrs.
Hope to get better
