@adsb2035 looks good. 🙂 though its going to be stripped down without wheel arches. 🙂

Homework Submission Week 2

I think it’s fair to say that car modelling is not going to become my thing. I did try my best, though, reworking each area more times than I can count (another month or so and it might start to look like a nice car). I’ve picked up a few tricks in the modelling courses I worked along recently, but there are still many areas of the Fiat that could have the topology laid out better, I think.

Anyway, I did the UV unwrapping and materials because I’m fairly sure I won’t be able to squeeze that in next week with all the interior modelling (I’m still doing the one-project-per-week thing so I need something presentable on Sunday). I was originally working with simple principled-based materials but I switched to Substance because I like the Iray render a little better. If you’d like to see them compared, I have both of them on my Blender blog.

EDIT: I have also uploaded the Fiat to Sketchfab with SubSurf level 1.

@adsb2035  @oboshape Definitely gonna second this. When I started this course I couldn’t even model the hood without screwing up and getting frustrated, a nagging feeling that I bit off more than I can chew. Failure is only failure if you learn nothing from it, and the best way to learn is to constantly push yourself, which you’ve admitted you’ve been doing.

Whilst naturally we can’t tell you what to do, I’d encourage you stick with it at least a bit longer. You might surprise yourself as to what you can do. But even if you fall short, hey, dust yourself off, take away what you did learn, and apply it to your next project.

HOMEWORK SUBMISSION WEEK 2

I’ve put it on sketchfab with subsurf level 1 just to have more smoothness 😀

Seeing some awesome results popping up in this thread, great job already guys!

[Katerina Novakova]

@shiennar It seems I’ve managed to win the Sketchfab battle this time. Here is the link. You can enable wireframe in the model inspector (the SubSurf is set to 1).

@shiennar That looks great Katerina! I do think the tires are too small.

[Palo Piktor]

@shiennar Nice work. Just curious, how many hours did you spent on this ?

Homerwork Submission Week 2

Tried to spend as much time as i could, but to make nicer details i would need a one week of time more. This course is great however i think it is very fast paced for people with fulltime job and families.

People, how many hours did you spend this week on modeling your car ?

[Katerina Novakova]

@thepainter Thank you. I had a head start because I finished the homework for week 1 before the class began. It’s hard to say how much time I spent on it overall, but I think around 30 hours, maybe?

Homework submission Week 1 Part2 Primitives

Thanks for the opportunity to submit later.

[lollito_larkham]

@thepainter
I didn’t count the hours.
I’d say around 12 to 14 h.  It includes time searching for references and studying them.
It is not the most of the time, but it takes some time to work on references.
I’ll try to track more precisely the time spent next week.

WEEK 2 HOMEWORK SUBMISSION

This has been very exciting modeling experience this far and many things has been learned. I think my Matu looks fairly OK at the moment but still there are some places that I wish could be a bit smoother. Here’s the Sketchfab link and some sort of a render below.

[Bauke Post]

Homework Submission Week 2

Here’s my hoverbike so far. Please note that I had to turn on simplify for the export to sketchfab -also for the shrinkwrap objects- so some things don’t look smooth enough.
