my first car

[Jokerd007]

here is a wireframe view of my first car. can anyone guess what it is? any tips? is there anything that i have done that is going to come back and get me later in the project? thanks for the input.

I would say Dodge Viper, lets see it when you are done!

[Don Cassity]

Yup...Looks like a Viper to me too:p Good luck and post updates.

Later, Don


BTW. Where in KY are you? I grew up in Mt.Sterling.

[Jokerd007]

i live in warsaw, ky right now. it is northern kentucky. about 30 miles south of cincy.

i guess if i wanted people to guess what kind of car it was, i should have saved it with a generic name. it says viper right there at the top.

[pandoz]

haha I didn't even notice the name at the top, but the general outline is really distinctive...too bad Dodge is thinking of making it more of a chop-block car in a few years.

Nice so far. Only thing I would say (which won't really come back to bite you) is that in some places you've used more points in the splines than you really need. For example the bottom of the door seems quite straight so you only need a few points there. All this means is that it might become a little bit awkward to edit later on if necessary.

Hmmm, Adobe Photoshop AND AOL Online??

One would think someone smart enough to use Photoshop would stay away from AOL, though Hackers might use AOL and Photoshop... grin

Kidding, can you guess i don't like AOL? :)

Nice start on your frame..

PS you might want to center up the points to the left of center.. will help merge later when you mirror the other side... make ABSOLUTELY sure that axis is at 0. I learned this the hard way... :D

[Jokerd007]

yeah, the only reason i have aol is because it is the only reliable thing available where i live, i am moving next month and plan to be cable the rest of my life, or until the next best thing comes along. i hate aol with a passion.

[MorituriMax]

Ahhhhh, your priorities are correct, grashopper! Never move anywhere without, ah so, verifying that cable is present... your kung fu is strong young one!

Heheh..

it isnt just aol that i hate, it is dialup all together. i hate it so much. it took like 20 hours to "purchase" photoshop.

When I was on dial-up, it only took like 10 seconds for my credit card number to go through. I think you need to call your AOL service rep and complain about how long it takes for a form to be submited. 20 hours seems a bit excessive. On my cable modem I can purchase things lickety split, no sh.... OH! wait... I get it now....
