Again heres another car. Im still doin gmy low poly guy since its for my reel but this car is for a contest at smcars.com. This one seems like a good contest because you have a 3 day limit on parts and if u dont meet the deadline, ur out. This might actually keep me motivated to finish. Ohh and I lost my gallardo file lol both my backup and original crashes so i mush have done somehting when saving. o well heres the hood, this si the first part due by the 6ths

thanks man. i did somw tweeeking to the hood/fender part since i did have a funny bump. Also, those first two rows werent spread evenly and the way the mesh was, there was no way so i reworked it a little to get a better mesh flow and maintina its smoothness

A nice looking bonnet you have there, if the rest of the car looks as good, it's gonna be pretty sweet.

Thanks petrol. Im hoping the rest comes out as sweet. I tend to lag a bit on the rear and fenders so if i can get those looking nice, then i should be all set hopefully. more upsates after the 7th once they announce what the next car part is going to be
