Cars 1972 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona Spyder

[A3DR]

What a strange focal angle to take screenshots.... anyway, nice to see this is coming along so nice!

Not completely welded and smoothed out but getting there. I rebuilt the entire rear section, still not 100% happy with the shoulder line from front to back, might have to thin out the shell just below the shoulder to get the desired angle.

Very much looking forward to your project there , We where 4 who tried out the race version of this car on a server---it's a blast ,but the grip level on that one is a bit to high, so I only use it on Dusted track....

Lack of perspective on these shots is messing with my brain... but looking lovely though.

It's funny, when I'm working in 3D I absolutely can not have perspective on - and it doesn't mess with my brain at all. But when I look at someone else's 3D it does. Wonder why...

Model is looking great so far

Yeah, the orthographic shots are.. strange. Sometimes when I look at a car in that view mode I get very confused and think I have to resize stuff. Then when I realize I'm in orthograpic mode and set it to perspective with the right FOV, it suddenly all makes sense again, haha.

Dude that video is so 70s it's not even funny anymore. Plus these minimal electro cote d'azur vibes...awesome! Sounds like a remix of Bob Sinclair's 'Champs Elysees'.

Anyway, the car looks great. Sounds more like an F1 from that era though, might be wrong on that.

As for the sounds with a bit of an old school touch I suggest this which was sampled from a Ferrari even though the car used was a big block 300SEL 6.9. If someone would do this as a track I could die shortly after driving about 100 laps!

I'm pretty sure in RL the grip level is super low given the suspension and tires, add to that the insanely high speeds this car is capable of it must have been very exciting - especially in the Spyder.

 

[stingray_SIX_TWO]

Soundwise I'm aiming for something like this...

I bet this is also the Colombo V12 engine in some configuration or another...

Ha I got that Rendevous on DVD
I have for some time been wanting to make a Mini Movie with the car you are working on, but it have never been in any game Topless I would replicate some clips from the Movie I have added here..

 

[stingray_SIX_TWO]

Haahaaa...I'm looking forward to that! Then again, next to Paris we now need the big apple.

As for the closest capture of real life sound of this car today here is a very HQ sample, start from 4:20...

 

[A3DR]

Oh yes, that sound, so pure and raw......

 

[stingray_SIX_TWO]

Oh yes, that sound, so pure and raw......

You know it man! Raw V12 firing in the right order . I also find the range of mechanical and running noises very immersive. That swooshing rattle of the valvetrain seems to enter the cabin pretty much unfiltered, add to that tire roar and the intake/exhaust sounds and it's one cool mix.

 

[stingray_SIX_TWO]

3 areas left to weld: rearlight assembly with the outer frame, interior with the sidewall and lower sills and the engine bay and firewall with the lower windshield frame. Headlights, doors, hood, trunklid and dashboard next.









I liked the longer, flatter frontend better, somehow looked sharper but this is the way it looks in RL so it'll stay like that.

 

[Charmin]

Looking great so far. Which program do you use to build?

 

[stingray_SIX_TWO]

Blender 2.76b

 

[stingray_SIX_TWO]

Finished the rear panel and integrated it. Some flow adaptation might still be done but the rough outline works.

 

[aphidgod]

Really starting to look like a Ferrari now.

 

[stingray_SIX_TWO]

Thanks for saying that man! Wait for the exhaust .

 

[stingray_SIX_TWO]

Building the headers will be fun. As I've recently dealt A LOT with the custom exhaust on my car putting together this awesome configuration feels somewhat familiar even though my engine has only half the cylinders .

 

[A3DR]

Nice, looking forward to see those shaky exhausts in action
