The "What Are You Working On?" Thread

[Sergio Loro]

The grass and trees look a lot more natural than your previous tracks !

latest version of Hockenheim looks good too working on a update for Sandevoerde and Eifel

New project, new Blender... finally going over to 2.80 series, I'd been avoiding it cause I knew I'd have to google every 2nd keypress and it would really slow down actually completing anything.

Unsurprisingly there are no blueprints or measurements or anything for a 1967 one-of-~three group 7 prototype. So I'm starting off with a bezier cage to get some photomatches happening. I do have better reference info for a McLaren M1B so I'm going off that where necessary (eg. the tire size, 6x15 and 7x15 funnily enough the same as the Lotus 25, and 2.31m wheelbase)

OH MY GOD YOU'RE MAKING A CHINOOK!!!!

You are my favourite person.

 

[Andy-R]

Really looking forward to the Chinook as well, should be great fun to drive!

0.0.0.0.1 pre-pre-pre-pre alpha and not even the earliest video what could be shared! Go figure out what it is.
I always said no when asked but then somebody said something, somebody gave permission for something, the moon and the sun was in the right position and I realised I have fairly solid plan to get things done.

Botniaring?

More lines, photomatched from 4 angles, I think it's time to start building a mesh. Thinking about starting with wheels & tires so I can get rid of those cylinders.

The black box is the outer dimensions of an M1B, doesn't surprise me that this would have a longer nose.

SO excited for this thing.

Need some liveries done up for it?

Maybe in a couple years.

Since people are being helpful, can anyone identify the top centre wheel on this page labeled 10A? https://vintageeng.com/products/magnesium-wheels/eagle-lola-mclaren-wheels/ McLarens also ran it (as in header image). A picture of the backside of the spokes would be very helpful cause I can tell from some photos that they have a through-hole but I can't find a name or company.

I might be wrong but I think you'll find those are actually McLaren-Elva magnesium wheels.

Glad you're doing this car, gives me more reason to ditch the Chaparral 2a I've been pissing around with for over a year now.

Couple years? Maybe by then I'll finish the historic circuit I've got planned

Had a few false starts on the tread pattern but I think it ended up OK. Still a bunch of sidewall stuff to do (sizing, "this is not for road use" etc.)

 

[DeeLoo]

CSP makes this light look more complete than it is... top half of the interior's still not even modeled but the RefractiveFX just treats that as 'maximum distance and reflective' I guess.

WOW! that's very cool, I've tried tweaking on Reflections FX but for some reason, the headlight and the taillights were blocking the lights after when I used the FX, I couldn't achieve it like this.
everything was supposed to be transparent but it wasn't
here's how it looks from the taillights

IDK why it's blocking the lights, the lights won't come out
and the front headlights was the same

IDK what is causing this issue........

 

[Stereo]

You need to include the name of every object you want to get drawn in the refractive lights, that's all I know about it. And only one emissive per refractive section will work correctly, other ones will just light up the same 'bulb'


McLaren-Elva magnesium wheels ... pretty well sorted.

Maybe not the most appropriate mannequin but oh well.

 

[Stereo]

Used the handy wireframe to do the body at low poly also quickly. Still some geometry I'd like to sort out around this level of detail before I really start subdividing.

I was a bit surprised it's so much smaller than the T70 MkII but I checked the wheels (best option I have for scaling to photos) and they're 15" as expected.

 

[aphidgod]

I wouldn't take that T70 model as gospel without checking it. I'm not sure how accurate it is, with no disrespect meant to Crossply.

 

[KittX]

Not sure if its noticeable at photo, but T70 model is longer/bit wider as well.

 

[Stereo]

I don't doubt the difference, I was just surprised there's ~6 inches more track width on the Lola. I suppose it has a competitive advantage in a class with minimal limits on horsepower.

Got holes for the tires, exhausts, lights, (probably) trans cooler, and one extra hole just because. Of course the bottom 1/3rd of the rear end is just exposed differential/suspension so that'll change the look when it's installed, same for the spoiler adding 3-4" of height.

Slowly coming along. First production Porsche 356 1100 Coupe (also have the 1300 and 1500), a nice match for the Abarth 500. Has it's own sound (needs refinement). I'd greatly appreciate if any physics guru could take a look at the data.

 

[Fat-Alfie]

Man, Assetto Corsa just keeps getting better and better with all these amazing mods!
