March/April - mumbojumbo_13 - normal

ok
well i know most of the people here now have never seen me model but know im at uni with a computer lab that can afford maya so i can compete in these challenges
--
im going to do the F1 McLaren LM basically, might play with the body work because there is a few different bumpers and ill pick the one i like.
I know im going to texture it to be a racing car but im not sure what it'll transform into yet, more concerned with getting a truly good car model done
so good luck all
cya
oh heres the car:

good luck in the challenge mumbojumbo_13! user added image

It looks like the car you have picked should give you plenty of opportunities for creating an interesting looking robot.
