ok ok ok.... so we all do have a favourite, right!?
let's just say that we find a car that has organic and straight lines...so with that...after finishing the sm_car_tut we would be able to model every single car on the planet including cars in our imagination... right ?!

So why botter...
...The only thing Im consurned with is WHEN the tut will come... Im as desperate looking forward to the cartut as YOU'LL ghehe

...and oh...(of the record)...The DoDge Viper looks fine to me too! user added image

please guys be a little more patient, I know the car should have been out ages ago... but we have had so much work to do that there simply wasnt time.

The apache tutorial has been a massive project, and one we picked over the car as theres cars everywhere!

But a car will come user added image

car tutorials are i think onez that catch most of the attention... although it is one of the few compact projects that covers almost everything of maya... lighting, texturing, modelling, polygons, nurbs, blah blah.. i cant wait for it tho... would not mind giving it a look

you guys do know that you can use the same techniques found in the apache to do the car, right? Just a matter of modeling something else. user added image
