@thecabbagedetective “fail faster “

Amen to that !

[Aaron Rudderham]

@martinlisen  That is slick as hell, great job! Tad jealous of it if I’m honest.

Is anyone else besides me catching themselves now and then trying to orbit or pan around a reference photo like it’s 3D?  

[William Miller]

@jakeblended Not me.

[William Miller]

I have pinching on my seat that I can’t figure out how to remove.  How do I fix it?

Here’s the blend file.

@silentheart00 heh ive done the same in the last week, think im on my 4th iteration 🙂

i struggled getting something the way i wanted it, and pressed the big Del key and was surprised at how quickly i redid it, and a bit better too.

[Darren McBain]

@michallis just been having a little play around during my tea break.

possibly use a mirror to create the front treads.

then add an array modifier to the same tread and set the constant offset in the direction and distance of the rear wheels. might be a bit tricky to get it right, but seems to do the job.  im guessing there will be an easy way somewhere, but at my level thats the only workaround i found to get the ball rolling :)ive dropped a screenie of what I was looking at, seemed to keep everything in the right direction

Day 3 done!

Biggest addition were the chairs and the sofa, naturally. Also added a few more details such as the speakers. Can’t get a clear shot but I think the back chairs are actually different so I might need to change them, but on the bright side I can claim “artistic expression” and just stick with them. They look a little tall too.

Closer look and the front chairs so you can see some of the smaller details like the seat belt clips:

The problem with kitbashing is as soon as you spot an empty area you are just willing to put something it. This will never end, there’s always room for a button, a switch or a gauge 😀 Time to move on, I will focus on the steering wheel and the pedals now. Then the seats and the doors. Then back to kitbashing !

@thecabbagedetective  Thank you, the key of success is the patience. 

[Kaj Suominen]

@tbrbn remember that in real life each of those gauges and buttons have function to do. throwing them there will make people to think “what’s that thing doing?” on a scifi object you can do that more easily, but something that people most likely will see everyday will notice odd things which breaks the illusion.

Thursday night’s progress.  I didn’t finish all of the dash and hardly touched the floor; all the little details take a bit longer than I anticipated.  Hopefully I can finish all of the modeling tomorrow and spend Saturday on textures and materials.

[Michallis Pashidis]

@oboshape thank you for the help!

I’ll apply my shrinkwrap modifier en do it like you proposed.

[Thibaut Bourbon]

@louhikarme Good point Kaj, I’ll make sure it doesn’t go out of hands. Luckily trucks dashboard are like plane cockpit (with regard to the amount of buttons), and based on my references (see my post on this page) so far it’s on the right track 🙂 thanks for the reminder !
