"yeah it was my grandads car" Ah sorry got my wires crossed. "BTW that silver 2007 Yaris in the background my current car " Nice must be fairly economical?! I've got a couple of rides, a 2002 Holden Commodore VX (...an ex-Police unmarked pursuit interceptor) similar in styling and specs to a Vauxhall Vectra 2.5 V6 4 door…
so I ran in to a major problem when collapsing the modifiers, in that the bevels would mess up the uv's, so here is a solution I worked out. you could uv map after you have collapsed , but I prefer to keep it non destructive until I am 100 percent sure its done a simple solution is to 1 pin 'all' the uv's 2 select the…
the problem is though that will take a lot of extra time and the meshes are meant to be viewed from mid distance, so if I had the time and money and I would include interiors( even a basic one) and give them a lot more detail overall but I am bit pushed right now, so they will have to do as I just have to get something out…
nice looking car/truck, will take a while to model the whole thing I guess? . looks a damn site warmer where you live than here .We previously had a Vauxhall Astra , but it had this weird power drain on acceleration. never found out what the problem was.replaced coil pack, improved it for a bit, then broke again. had to…
Like your work B ) EDIT: If you don't mind me asking - I'm just curious about the workflow, creating these low poly cars especially rounded edges and curved shapes like wheels, light wells or generally other non curvature surfacing/topology whilst also at the same time not incurring usual edge faceting....? I mean how do…
Wow thank you very much Mike, really appreciate your insight plus YT info which I'll definitely look into : ) I'm revisiting the Kingtiger tank project linked in my sig, after many a year decaying through obvious inattention....nay to be blunt unadulterated laziness hence the query for an alternate modeling method that may…
"nice looking car/truck, will take a while to model the whole thing I guess?" Indeed! although shouldn't take as long as a Tiger tank I began modeling nearly a decade ago....LOLs and yeah imo does come to think of it have a certain workman-like design functionality. And since Australia is comparatively similar in size…
look forward to seeing the Tiger revamp,since you are a proper hard surface modeller :) the good thing with uv mapping the bevels is that blender does a reasonable job of it and IMHO Eevee does a great job with car/shiny shaders . There are plenty of procedural approaches for the camo pattern , using 'object 'rather than…
Hey, no probs.It just dawned on me over the last few months that people were using these kind of techniques more and more. It's kind fo fun to be doing low poly modelling again, even had to do some edge turning :/ I started my first car in 2002 and because I could n't make it look good I gave up on it. I am starting to…
