BMW 8 Series

Well, I got tired of playing with making a face, so I went back to what I love to do... Make cars.

Since I'm doing this for school, I'm trying to make a car with splines.

I'm not sure if I'm doing this right, so if there is anything that can help me make this faster, or if I'm not doing it right, please let me know. :D

So far, I like poly modeling better.

I can tell from the hood that it is an 8.

I too like Poly modeling better...I personally dont see the advantages and its so much of a pain getting them all together... Personally Id keep the points and make polys for all the "squares" in the poly mesh then keep modeling with polys while frequently hitting the "tab" key to see the metanurb representation.

Well, with some help from Lewis and his tutorial, this is what I got done. :)

Splines aren't as bad as I thought it was. ;)
Here's what I got so far. Let me know what's wrong. :D

Oeh yeah, honga bonga, that's my car. Well not for real, but I like the smooth and tight lining of this car.

Always reminds me of a streamlined shark, such great design by BMW, but even better modelling by you SK:D :D

Keep it up and forget the face modelling for now and finish this one, or else......


Grtzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....

Does anyone have any pictures of the BMW 8 Series? Because I only have 2 pictures... And they are of the front. :(
