Buzz, your welcome, this looks like a fun project to watch unfold... cool http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
Jens...haha, it just so happens that I didn't take it this way either Jens... I viewed a 3D challenge once upon a time, whereby the criteria of the models/scene was to be a flying thingie, pref c/w pilot, and the contraption was to be constructed with parts which we would all recognize from everyday life... ie... homemade looking http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
This was the thought I had in mind, though I also imagined your thoughts stemming more from a manufacturing side of things http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
anyways, some of the entries in said contest really looked cool... like the person must have had quite the little shop to have done the work in, if in real life... perhaps c/w sheet metal tools and apparauts, pipe benders, welding equip, industrial rivet machines, presses, the whole cabootle... http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
and voila... the model fly thingies looked somewhat homemade and looked very cool. http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
I like viewing this sort of 3D worx... has just the right bridge there between fantasy and reality to look closer just to see how far the details go... could it really work ? being the next question because it looks so cool and you recognize so many elements tied together in such a wonderous way... I likes this the best of all in 3D... just my preference of course http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
and Buzz, I apologize for taking your thread like this for an OT sort of disscusion with Jens here... You keep pushing those poly's and FX around ... this is going to be one fine galactic looking car from what I can see thus far... http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

I just discovered this thread few minutes ago and thought i should share my latest image. It's a car modeling i made for a french forum where i'm a moderator (a Cinema4D comunity)... lot of people love to model cars, wich i found boring. So i started a thread promising to model a Lamborghini MurciƩlago using "box modeling". And so i did ;-)
But the result was not the one most expectated, as i used Antoine de Saint Exupery way of box modeling http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
The final image recall to Saint Exupery (author of "Le petit Prince"), Magritte and Kubrick. The name of the image is "Ceci n'est pas une caisse" (this is not a box/car)... "caisse" is a slang word for "car", as well as a translation of "box" (in french).

Well, I have decided to scrap my other design and try to use a tutorial to learn a little bit more. With the little that I know about Cinema 4d, trying to jump into a car project was a bit overwhelming. I have taken a tutorial for a 1955 Chevy Belair and made some slight changes along the way. This is my work in progress....hope you enjoy. George

Cool....
A suggestion.
Maybe you could start a new topic about your project. This ones getting pretty long, slowing the load time as well.
