updated

Another update to the Maclaren. I've settled on the overall shape of the tail end, and have cut in the panels and intake ports, as well as the brake and turn light cutouts. It will need detail work in here, but mostly stuff that isn't 'attached' to the mainbody (with the exception of one part i now see I forgot). Please forgive the obvious seam because the two halves are not combined together yet.

Loosley based on a set of treads I saw at Les Schwab last week. The rim of course is the McLaren LM rim.

like it Jason they seem very accurate, is that rubber just one poly object or the inside is made of a nurbs revolve?
Good work, looking forward to see the car:thumbsup:

I'll be adding textures to it soon user added image

thanks guys! the inner tube is a nurbs revolve under the tread. I might have to make a poly wall out of it tho, cause I'm concerned that the tire won't deform properly as two seperate pieces.

Right now I'm getting the brake lights, grills, and mufflers done to wrap up the back end modeling. Here's an updated pic with the front end modeling essentially done. (I have to dothe windshield wipers yet).

Nice job.
