Modelling is like french, you learn it, you learn it but you never quite finish learning it and half the time it pisses you off. :D

[xboxthug13b]

Stick an M badge it and make it the coupe!!!

[Kujoe]

I'll do that.thanks

[Kujoe]

I was playing with the paint,Thought you'll like to see

[Kujoe]

rear shot

[Jared]

Wow, looks great. Bmw z3 is one of my favorite cars.
Looks like you're doing a roadster.
Keep up the good work.

[sarN]

[Kujoe]

[Kujoe]

[Kujoe]

[sarN]

there ya go, paint looks much better now :D
this is a sweet lookin model

[Kujoe]

thank:) the setting for the numder 1output

[Qubical]

First of all great modell, but I have one question, why did u turn the RGB level down? Doesn't seem clear to me.

[Kujoe]

Thanks,It was way to bright.Try it .Till me what you think.ok,Maybe we all learn sometime from this

[Qubical]

Normally for cars im not using Brazil, but just the standard scanline renderer, but when I see this paint I might very well make an exception. I sure looks great. But the paint seems a bit freckled, but that might be the jpg compression artefacts.

[Kujoe]

thanks Forgot other map .Sorry Lol

[Kujoe]

shot at the front :)

[Qubical]

kinda hard to explain, but I will circle it on one of you pics, if you don't mind:
I was refering to these irregularities in the paint, if they were meant to resemble a metallic paint, I would make them a bit smaller. (btw tell me the word you would use for that, because obviously english is not my mother language)

[Th3 ProphetMan]

im spanish :D but i think it can be called noise effect or something like that

[USED]

I think that Qubical is talking about the brazil paint flakes. They do look a little large for your model, but I see that you have the size set to .1 , I dont know if it gets any smaller? I dont have brazil any more so i cant test it my self and they dont have the R/S version anywhere more

[Qubical]

I was talking about the paint flakes :) .

[Kujoe]

Th3 ProphetMan,thanks
used Thanks guy ,I think it may be the spread.:)

Qubical thanks:)

[Kujoe]

oh here the rim I'm going to try to model ,I 'm working on it now:)

[xboxthug13b]

how are u going to model it

[novoAlias]

splines is an idea, btw nice car, dont give up :D

[Kujoe]

ya splines is the way:)BlackWolf thanks

[USED]

Hey Kujoe I am getting close to having to make my rims and the fear is growing :D If you would be so kind to post your progress (a mini tut) on how your goung to use you splines that would be so much help for me....
You want a pic of me, bah im am one to be heard not seen LOL were would I post such a picture cause its not finished art wrok that is for sure it a WIP hahahahaha :dance:

[Qubical]

Hey USED if you want to see how to modell rims, check out the tutorial on Radarheads weppage. Something with defcongrafx, not sure check out in the members list, there is also a link to his webpage, I found the tutorial very helpfull. Another way is to check out the way Karabo makes the steering wheels of his Fiat 500 in the tutorial on the 3DTotal page. I am doing my rims like that because I figured that it is much more accurate but thats a question of preference.
@Kujoe: your Z3 is coming along quite nice, hope you will finish it. I think most people here in the forum don't finish there work and I was like that too, but joining this forum helped alot, you get so much advice that you have to go on :) .

http://www.defcongrafx.com/

OFF topic .You'll see it in there.I just want to see what you look like.Your birthday is my birthday ;) Did you see me in there?My wife and I:???:

[jawahar]

keep up the good work

[A4D]

Wow, its lookin real great. I cant wait to see it done. :)

[USED]

lookin really slick Kojoe... I think that its safe to say that this is your best car yet, well out of the ones that I have seen... I will take a gander at the "great ones" (radarheads) tut :) I just love his work and I am sure that I can alway learn from him... If you talk to him let him know that I am pulling for a speedy recovery of his PC, I fix them for a living and if he has any questions let me know maybe I can help???

[xboxthug13b]

can u post the wire Kujoe?

[Kujoe]

I sure can friend:)

[Kujoe]

:) wow no one want to see the spline cage:???:

[xboxthug13b]

yea that too

[sarN]

lookin great kujoe :D the paint looks perfect especially in that last angle
keep it up !

[keescopyright]

Kujoe, I was here when you were really sucky, seems you pollished your skills and are lookin quite good nowadays, radarhead teach you ? :P It's good to see models like this after what you used to build your gettin good... like the stuff dude... i should spend more time too... but i havent got any...

:)

[xboxthug13b]

yea so true Kujoe..i agree with u

All i can think about is max all day.. i may not be good at it but i luv using it and its something i think i might want to do professionally

[Kujoe]

spline cage for the rim

[xboxthug13b]

looks complicated but good..hehe

i gotta learn how to make spline cages

[Kujoe]

I'll work on the diskbrake now ,I will do it with splines too
xboxthug13b thanks .I learn it from Edd tut on rims;)

[SNap]

He he, you mean the breakdisk.

So for the rims you just made the spline cage, made the faces then what, extrude? When it comes to splines I don't know anything.

[Qubical]

Read the tut on radarheads page, he explains quite well. I gues he put a surfacemodifier on and made the rest with polymodelling. Thats how I would go about it anyways. Keep it up Kujoe nice work on that car and on the rim too.

Qubical is right

Thanks Qubical, I see you no how to do it too.

[Kujoe]

ok the spline cage for the disk .:)

[Kujoe]

the disk:)

[SNap]

Nice. Why didn't you make the splines that go from one hole to another around the disk round? And why does the outer shell of holes on the disk have 2 splines going apart like that?

Just trying to understand this. :)

[RickStefani]

Clean modeling. Isn't about time for Kujoe to have the Santas cap?

[Kujoe]

Just trying to understand this. :) Will I was going to put the groves in it.But then I didn't ,But I'm going to do it again .I have a better idea .That one don't look the good.

[Kujoe]

Yep, the dogs picture.

[legato]

Will I was going to put the groves in it.But then I didn't ,But I'm going to do it again .I have a better idea .That one don't look the good.

you could do the disk with boolean..

[Kujoe]

A new one.This is before I cennect it.:)

[SNap]

Do you place the holes with a pivot thing-a-magig? What happens if you don't connect the thing-a-magigs.

[USED]

Kojoe you the man :D :D :dance:
thank you so much for this I have been reading and trying to understand radarheads rim tut, and now with your spline cage I can see two diffrent typ rims (dont know if that makes any since) but some time I have to see two diffrent things in order to fully understand.... I am planing on working on my beamer all night until my eyes blead so I should have a update for ya

[Kujoe]

ok this is it with the surface on it.As you can see what conected and what not, the surface shows you

[Kujoe]

Now the splines closed.with the surface

[Kujoe]

now its a patch:)

[Kujoe]

then I go to patch then I delete it .see in red

[Kujoe]

then I get the edge.

[Kujoe]

then I hold down the shift key and scale it:)

[Kujoe]

then I hold down the shift key again and moved to the Y

[kingcobra]

how many polies will that rotor be when its done?:eek:

[Kujoe]

this is it.but poly high.I see if I can lower it.30.000 I'm :cry:

[Kujoe]

I did it :D Under the surface ,view step was 5 and I made it 1.now 3,564.I'm happy again:D Looks not bad;)

[Kujoe]

Originally posted by Kujoe Do you place the holes with a pivot thing-a-magig? What happens if you don't connect the thing-a-magigs.
Then there is no surface:) that thing your thinking of is ,how you aray around,You don't no how to use it?Want me to show you?

[Kujoe]

[xboxthug13b]

wow that was awhole lot of polies good thing u lowered it down...hehe

[Qubical]

Booleans in Max is not a very good idea. Give it a try and you will see, that it won't work right. It works with a plugin called Power booleans but that isn't for free :( .

[Kujoe]

This is the rim with the disk in it.

[Qubical]

Looks nice, the way you made your discs is nice. BTW what method do you use for the cars body? Splinecage, polys, boxmodelling, nurbs ( I guess not in Max!)?

[Kujoe]

Yes in max 5 and its polymodeling,Thanks very much.I'm happy your here to help every one, thats very nice of you ;) I hope that disk helps people.Most of the time they don't let you no it help.Some do and most don't.:(

[Kujoe]

The rims done:)

[Kujoe]

there they are on the car:) oh I did the door handly

[Kujoe]

fixed the door handly:)opps I need to move the first tire back alittle:o

[SNap]

OMG! Your car has only 2 wheels! :p

Nice but make sure you adjust the part behind the back wheel. In the last render it seems to stick out a bit too much. And how about a tire.

[sarN]

lookin great kujoe, but why is the disc blue? just stands out to me i guess
keep at it :D

[RickStefani]

Someone over heated there brakes. Haha. Looks good.

Can you plz tell me how to QUOTE more the one person?

[xboxthug13b]

looking real sweet kujoe

[Kujoe]

xboxthug13b
thanks friend .Did you learn anything on my posts?
Fix things:)

[keescopyright]

what the **** how do you build your stuff??? i make a tube real flat like the disc i want, i create an editable poly and chamfer the vertices i want to become holes to the middle on both sides remove the faces and weld the middle vertice groups... if you extrude only slightly the first time you have a sharp chamfer edge, if you just select the middle polygons and give them a diffrent smoothing group, (also have to turn it on in the meshsmooth youll get really sharp edges looks really mechanical...

[sarN]

awesome kujoe, i think it looks better with the chrome
i wish i had the patience and skill to make one of those BMWs :D

[wreed]

Wow man great car, maybe take the chrome rims down to a more alloy look, chrome is too BLING BLING.

I swear I double take at your model, looks like a diecast car....

I am curious, I am new to 3ds max, and I would like to know what polymodeling is.

[xboxthug13b]

yea kujoe i did learn things

[Kujoe]

keescopyright,Thanks maybe someone will learn something on the way you said, thanks:D

sarN

thanks, and you will be there really.Look it you now.things are looking great for you

wreed Hi thanks.I don't no how to do that.Can anyone help on that?

xboxthug13b My friend.I'am glad .It works great 4 rims..

Will its 2:38 am



;)

[Kujoe]

:) worked on the rims texture and the rear finder;)

[Kujoe]

:)

[Kujoe]

:)

[wreed]

Kujoe, they look alot better, the chrome ones stood out too much, they are more subtle now....maybe you want to shine them up a tad.

Not trying to rip you cause for sure I cannot do what you have accomplished, just trying to help you out a bit. :) I own a 3 series and that might be my first car to try out after I do this tutorial on 3dtotal. Thanks.

[Kujoe]

more work done

[Kujoe]

model the headlight holders
wreed
Thanks We allways need more eye ..

[USED]

she is comming a long very nicely... I do think that the disk breaks are a bit to large but that is an easy fix. I think that we should race to see who can finish there car faster, it will push us to finish.

looking great,cant find anything in specific to crit.looking forward to more updates :D .some wires and closeup too.:)

[scott99]

according to you refrence picture, this is the only thing i see wrong, i was going to say something when you very first started to model this but thought you would fix it :)

[Kujoe]

Scot hi thanks ,I didn't even see it .easy fix still

[scott99]

yw..... just looking at your model and the real car, your headlight slots were to short so thats the only thing that can be making it look that, because the rest is perfect :D:D:D

[Kujoe]

[Kujoe]

Heres a better shot

[wreed]

NEver got the email Kujoe, check your pm....

[scott99]

yeah, the space where the healights go into... and shine out... rofl i marked it in red on the pic i posted

[sarN]

like that last angle kujoe, looks better and better :D
im workin on a car now lol u got me goin again

[xboxthug13b]

i too live in NJ:)

[Kujoe]

Scot thanks again.It line up with the blue prints.Thats why I didn't see it.But I did move it down,I think the print not right.Hows that better ?
sarN thanks and I'm very happy to here that .you go get them boy:D
xboxthug13b you ever come to R.I.?thanks guy

[xboxthug13b]

i dont think i even been there..i know my dad goes there every once in awhile for his job..hes a truck driver

[Kujoe]

You'll have to go with your dad sometime and check it out..
Here some colors I was playing with.What color you like the best?

[Kujoe]

:)

[Kujoe]

:)

[novoAlias]

i think the first one stands out more but its best to test it in a scene, also y not have all 3?

[xboxthug13b]

i would go with silver..only cuz about 99.9% of the ones i seen were in silver:)

[Kujoe]

I too like the first one best.That will be my render then. when I'm done.I did the two headlights:)

[Kujoe]

front head lights are done

[scott99]

much better kujoe, i like it, cant wait to see it finished :D

[Kujoe]

Originally posted by scott99

I started the seats here the back

[Kujoe]

seats done:)

[Kujoe]

I think is done now:)

[Kujoe]

put the seat in:)

[NoJo]

looks really nice Kujoe, But isn't there a bit to much refraction in the windows? :p looks great otherwise.

[sarN]

i agree, i bit too much refraction lol the seats huge!
awesome model, but is the emblem a little big? (never seen a real z3)

[Vitor]

Looks great so far Kujoe ;)

I don't think the refraction is too high, I think that the windows are just a oneside poly. You should create the window as in real like (two sided) and not just a plane ;)

Nice work, I like the seats. You should have another look at the seam between door and the rest of the cars body. Somehow the door doen't really fit.

if you are talking about the mishapeness of the stuff on the other side of the window, that can be fixed by changing the IOR from 1.56 to 1.00 or just 1 lol, :D hope thats what your talking about

[Kujoe]

The car worked in photoshop 6.I like it;)

[Drizzt]

Man been working on paints lights mats for days..

[Vitor]

Looks great Kujoe ;) Nice head lights material

As you are using Brazil to render, you could use a skylight to get some great shadows ;)

[Rinne]

Heya, I like it a lot :)

But I don't like the last paint that much.

Also the backlight looks strange.

Everything else: Very good:)

[xboxthug13b]

but it looks alittle too dark..might but this monitor though

[Kujoe]

THANKS GUYS .I need it .I'm still not happy with the renders.

---Rinne Thanks on the color black,the window reflects the enviroment.I don't see the black line.maybe the enviroment too.I don't know.You can point it out.I'll try fixing the trouble spots.

[JQuacker]

Wow, nice job on the lights, dude. Maybe the collapsed sunroof could get a little work? Doesn't look like cloth...
