Another Reventon model (my first shot real attempt at a car)
polycounter lvl 14
Hey guys, been a member for quite a few months now but have very little posting going on, this should change very much so now that I've got time to work on my own projects =D I'm gearing up to expand my portfolio and looking to try and get into the industry one way or another so I've got to bump up my quality bar a bit. Please comment and critique on my projects, I would greatly appreciate all the feedback and tips I can get.
So first up on my projects list is the Lamborghini Reventon, definitely my favorite car for the last few months so I decided I would try and model it. I'd like to do the interior as well later so that I can use this in a demo reel later on and be able to open the car door... that will be much later though. For now I'm just focusing on finishing the exterior. So this is very much wip still... have many small spots that need to be finished up and a few that need reworking.
And one for the back (very much wip)

yeah thats all I got.
Ive worked a bit on this car in the past, and one thing you really have to take into consideration is the shapes of the edges on this car. one hard edge will flow from the rear of the car, to the front. Its very edgy.
Another thing to note is (from the images ive seen) your rims are backwards. As well, the front and the rear wheels are a bit different, you should really look at some reference, if you notice the rear ones center cap is pushed in more, real subtle stuff.
And one last thing that tricked me when i was working on this car, that the skirts on the left and right side of the car are completely different. Of course i dont know if you caught that or not, you only have 1 side showing, but be weary.
Yeah overall its just a few edges here and there that need to be brought in, or tighten up your hard edges. Looks great man.
And try to look at games like GT5 and forza to see how they render their in game cars. But i do appreciate that you have its default brownish matte material in your renders
keep it up man!
And yes Ajr, I really thought I should've posted some wire frames, and probably not make it such a dark lighting setup (seems to hide too much of the modeling work) one wireframe coming right up
Anyway, I'll probably do the interior sometime much further on so I am able to move onto other projects (like making my halo style power armor that I've been concepting, will post it up later when its ready) I would really like to get a job at the local Timegate Studio and this won't help me much with that but its ok, this is for other jobs I may apply for. (any helpful comments on projects I should undertake for getting the Timegate spot are welcome as well, will probably be trying for an environment artist position... maybe vehicle as well)
