By the way, V1 and V2 of the beast is finally finished and in the sim. Also, this is the first car that I've modeled in only 3d crafter pro and the car is fully 3d, the sides and the roof are rounded just like the real thing.

Next will be a two door coupe version of it instead of the 4dr sedan.

New 2 door car in the game.

The only one to use this same design as the first is the 1967 Chevrolet Bel Air, so this is a 1967 Chevrolet Bel Air.

Also, I also want to try to do a 1973 Pontiac Firebird for this set.

They look great, JP! Just curious, tho, what about door handles, and chrome windsheild trim? Little stuff, but it would make these models shine!

Would love to add those, but those would add even more polygons that aren't needed, and the window trim isn't as simple unfortunately. Might experiment with a couple of door handles though and see how much more polygon's it adds to the model.

Of course though, for a scenery model though, don't really need door handles or any other special features since they won't be seen from far away.

Easy. Paint the trim and handles in the textures.

I have a flashback to my first car, a 1973 Gran Torino, metallic green, paid 100$.
That thing did 0 - 60 mph in about 2 hours 15 minutes.

[jpetersjr]

I might do a Ford Torino at some point.


My first car was a 1984 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS, that thing could do 0 - 60 mph in about 30 seconds.

My mom bought a brand new '66 Chevelle Malibu, the two door with a straight six and a two speed Power Glide tranny. We drove the heck out of that car, I kept it in good mechanical shape. Put well over 400k miles on it. LA to Phoenix on one tank of gas, at 75mph. '66 was a singular year body style, the '67's looked a lot like these Impala's. The '66 is expensive, if you can even find one. I learned to drive in that car, Blythe to Phoenix on I10, 14 years old.

Oops, now Buzz is gonna ticket me for a hijack!

[jpetersjr]

Tomorrow 65 Wildcat and then 69 Pontiac GTO Judge.
