The "What Are You Working On?" Thread

[Błażej Wianecki]

Ops i did it again...

They offer me a commissioned work. Build a car for a championship in january.
This time all is different again, because i'm starting with a hi poly 3d model in my hands. ( they bought it )
At this time, i dunno really if workin on a existing model is a good thing, i had to unsubdivide it, and it went good,
but modifing it isn't so funny.
BTW is the MINI JCW, for the challenge. Starting model is a huge 1M triangles Mini cooper S, obviously F56, last model.

Nice! I see small discrepancies so far. The upper part of rear lights appear to be a bit too rounded. Both the rims around the front and rear headlights are a bit too slim. Also the indents on the lower part of front bumperette (the one integrated with front grill) appear to be a bit too deep. However they are always black so maybe it’s hard to tell. Door handles seem quite flat but perhaps it has something to do with the competition version. Idk.
Otherwise it looks really good.
Sorry for being so nitpicky but I happen to drive f56 cooper myself. If you need some reference photos or something let me know
Edit: Oh, and the front lights are way more convex irl.

Thanks for feedback,
damn! i really wished that the original hi poly model was perfect, but seems not!

Looks good but don't overdo it, a few balloons is ok

See, you really shouldn't go around putting ideas like that in my head...

Balloon Fiesta add-on for almost any track

* If you like any of my resources and feel like contributing, please make a small donation to Cancer Research or your local charity of choice. Thanks! * This will add 30 new unique balloon models and a new Fujifilm blimp to almost any track in...

Busy going through side by side with pics I took a couple weeks ago ... picking up details that need to be tweaked like tree line silhouettes and other textures ... and some not so detailed issues ... like where Ive put a concrete barrier where an armco is supposed to be

 

[Fat-Alfie]

Yeah, the ones on the right look rubbish

Little teaser on the track building series project. Will likely Have Episode 2 up sometime this weekend showing some of the processes to get to this point. Also the bumps you see were picked up from the data. I have not added anything into the surface yet. Overall it drives pretty nice. Just hard to know where you are with no lines or details anywhere.

 

[Amir Vodokotlic]

That looks real good.

Can't wait for episode 2.

Still plugging away on this. I had thought about trying to get the LT wheels onto the short tail with a .kn5 injection, but that's too much fiddling and I wouldn't be able to release it here, so instead I've also done up a LT version of the livery.

New issue; the surface finish is different. Using CM I've had a look at the shader settings and compared both cars. Aside from the shadow bias setting they're identical (and after changing that to be the same, the discrepancy is still there). Anyone have any idea what might be happening here? The two liveries are set up identically, diffuse and map files. Biggest area of difference is the matte black on the cockpit, and the lack of chrome on the side of the LT.

If you use CSP's mesh replace feature, you can release it here. Like the EnduLights or the E30 spare wheels

In theory, only if whatever you add was created by yourself. So he’d have to remodel and remap the wheels.

As Jackson mentioned, that would only work if I made my own mesh; which is more work than I feel like putting in to a quick skin

Exterior of JCW MINI finished!

 

[chili pepper]

Threw this together for some unknown reason. Not finished (may never be), not perfect (nor will it be), not sure what I'll do with it...

 

[carmar]

Still w.i.p. (also the longtail Version)

Armco geometry is too detailed.

Keep your geo simple and average the normals. Any hard edges with normals will cause the moire effect you see there.

Example hard normal edges like this will cause the moire issue.
