The "What Are You Working On?" Thread

[AccAkut]

Was tired of not having any decent looking intercooler so I went ahead and made one.
2.5D fins clocking in at 7k tri.

you're going to use this straight or to texture bake on a low poly model?

Gonna use as-is, Don't like my cars looking like it's 2007.

Besides I'd rather make models ready for whatever next modable game than remake them in the future. Most GT Sport cars are just shy of 700k triangles (1x subdivision) on modern hardware so I don't see any reason to stick to the ~300k limit with properly made LODs.

Preach!

for me there is a difference between using a higher tri budget to create higher perceived detail and just using a higher budget as an excuse not to optimise.

I'm totally onboard with going beyond the outdated budgets, but don't be wasteful for the sake of a bigger number. You can make something look just as good with way less, thus leaving more of that expanded budget for other details.

Thrown this together, imo its still too much but at 2k tris, its doing the same job for far less (in reality i'd make it much lower poly still, but this paints the picture)

Like for 7k, i don't want to be able to count the edges. You want a silly high number? well make it silly detailed.

1270 tri for the base, I may or may not have forgotten to untick isoline when making the pipes....
2,970 after remaking the piping.

Like for 7k, i don't want to be able to count the edges.

That part will be completely covered by the bumper anyway, if it was visible I'd just swiftloop it to be smooth for additional 100 tri.

Well at least I got Gary to come out of the hiding just to dab on me so that's something I guess.

Enough politics.

I don't have picture of the actual one.
I know it's Anglican... i know it's white, and i guess wooden.
Except i took an example of an hawaiian stone church
forgive me @NightEye87 for i have sinned.

eh eh, yes the Testarossa..



Oh wait you were talking about the building!

 

[NightEye87]

forgive me @NightEye87 for i have sinned.

I was indeed thinking, "why the butresses on the tower and facade?!" You don't see that on wooden structures often - if at all.
I can see past that, though. I'll just close my eyes!
It does looks great nontheless

I've started adding the 3D leaves to Bremgarten's trackside and it's starting to feel much more alive

sorry and stupid question is a relase or wip ?

 

[Fat-Alfie]

WIP still, about 90% complete (and no need to apologise).

 

[gecco]

I honestly spent the last 30min gazing at those previews, finding it hard to believe how much attention you have given to the last miniature detail. There does no seem to be a single stone left, that has not been given careful thought on how it can be arranged and textured to fit into the scene most naturally and convincingly. And just look at those trees and crowds!!!!
David, you really have completely outdone yourself, again

just helping you out with your typo here

Wait! From where did you get this Testarossa? Unbelievable work!

WHOAH

 

[Stereo]

I'm gonna need to build something older to go to 50s Bremgarten, this 912 is just too modern... has a rollcage and bucket seats and everything. hmm how does a 300SL sound

 

[Helzephyr]

hmm how does a 300SL sound

Vroom vroom?

Thanks to FilipJDM for the speakers and amp.

Need to model some cathode lighting and wiring next.

Incredible work. Bremgarten such a special track, this looks bloody amazing.
