It's becoming very good, but I just think that if you make the spoiler a little bit morer rounder, probably will be better user added image

lol its all about how you go about doing it. I kinda planned it out and it was real simple. the side is a poly cube that eas extruded several times and shaped, the pips was a ep curve tool exturded, and the little bars in the mittle of the intercooler was to poly cubes and then I did like a duplicate and of like 50 or something like dat to get the row and then a dup of that 20 times to get the height. real simple but thats why im not happy.

Ok well to be honest, I hate this car and I modeled it all wrong. It sucks because I found out a better way to model after I started on this car so now I dont want to finish. Well i want everyone to reply and tell me what car should I model, even if you dont want to see the forum, just choose which one you like best

1) - Ferrari F360 Modena
2) - Ferrari F430
3) - Lamborghini Murcielago
4) - Nissan 350z (My boy just bought one so he wants me to model it the way hes going to hook his car up)
5) - Infinity G35
6) - 97 Mistubishi Eclipse GSx (This is what I really own but I rather do this when I got sserious talent)

Hi

If you gone hoke the nissan 350Z, I vote that.....if you aren't going to hook I vote the Ferrari F43o....but if you model a Shelby GT-500 (the "Eleonor" in the movie "gone in 60 seconds" I vote that one user added image

)

ive been lookins for some descent prints of that car. I got one but the alignment is horrible but im trying to fix up the prints because elenor is one beautiful car. I prob with wait on that one though because I dont want to disrespect such a beauty by not making it look as good as possible. as for the 350z, its going to be hooked up hopfully. My friend said hes going to draw out what he wants but I dont know his taste so if his drawings look rediculas then ill let you know
