Great looking model, love the rust textures. As for the windows try using some alpha maps that way you don't have to deal with the geometry too much

God that looks so real, i thought that it was an actual model that you were building, but i guess that its not... keep up the great work...

Nice! Suggestions: Add scratches to the mag wheels, dried and crackly rubber to the tires, actual dents in the hood or other metal parts, scuffs around the keyhole, missing rubber from around a window, scrapes on the bottom of the bumper.

greta model... looks kinda like a honda crx... :P cracks in the windshield would be nice, as well as a shattered window maybe... one thing really stuck out, though... the tires need much more wear and tear, they look too new...

regards,
teck

where's the headlights?

I was gonna say one headlight flipped up would add to the dramatic feel... but....

thx for the suggestions, the reason why i have so shiny rim�s on it is that i made a "showroom" version of it first, and havent changed anything on the rims yet.

Poor Del Sol

Seeing a car like that makes me Sad. heh Nice Work Grid im impressed looks Great !! Love the Rust. The Only thing is it looks Kinda of Odd that the Bottom Of the car is all Rusty and Top Looks Brand New and the Mags Look New as well. Maybe its an Beat Up Del Sol that is Beeing REbuilt heh =)
But nice work !!!

But nice work again !! If you were in America i would Prolly Be interested in that Lovely Del Sol. Nice car by the way

So here's a question no one has asked. How did you build it?
Meaning what method did you use.
Love the showroom pieces by the way.
Great looking stuff

GRID · Posted: Tue Jun 05, 2001 8:42 am

Knowledge: i guess in sweden(and europe?)they keept the crx name since they stopped making that "old" model 1991.

I made it with "Box modeling" in 3dsmax3, and here�s a viewportpic from the modeling http://www.3dluvr.com/grid/temp/persp.jpg

ohh ok thats Cool Grid

Hey Tell me how Long did you work on it ?
how much time did it take you to make that (Del sol =P)

Its realy nice

TekK · Posted: Wed Jun 06, 2001 2:24 pm

actually, the crx does come in that body... in singapore my friend had a 96 crx (incidentally, it was the same color as GRID's model... :P) and the body was definitely the same...

cheers,
teck

Knowledge: It�s hard to say how long i�ve been working on it.
I started about 8 month agoe when i had bought a Honda crx myself, then when it was about 50% done i got tired of it and put it away.
Then some month later i got a idea to make it to this "Concept" Honda, and then i made a "showroom" version of it( as can be seen here: [url=http://www.3dluvr.com/grid/3dgallery2/crx_concept.htm)]http://www.3dluvr.com/grid/3dgallery2/crx_concept.htm)[/url]
And then i got this idea to make a old rosty version.

HOLY MOTHER!
Thats one fine model.
I check the link you provided and may i just say that the renderins on the bottom look SO F***ING REAL! The blue one looks just like it was a plastic model and the image below that looks like a real picture of a car. AMAZING! Keep it up.

Hey, you gotta add something that no beat up car should be without:
A different colored door
previous owner got the door knocked off and replaced it, he was too lazy to paint it to match the car.

Anthony · Posted: Thu Jun 07, 2001 12:08 pm

Model looks great. Your textures are struggling to keep it together though. I've had similar issues in the past, especially with photo based textures. What's your surface setup look like?

GRID · Posted: Thu Jun 07, 2001 11:49 pm

I�ve been using texporter and then i�ve made a 8000x1024 pixels texture in photoshop, partly photos and partly by myself.
