Hello People

I know this is a WIP section but unfortunately i have been working on this project for a while now to start posting images starting from the beginning.

I should have posted my works here at SM instead of on other sites, nonetheless... the WIP of my bike can be viewed below...

https://www.threedy.com/site/forum/sh...ad.php?t=38741

The images below are updates that don't appear on the other site.









So, from now on, i think i will keep posting any updates here at SM

Feel free to comment and critic!

i think you did a great job on the bike. i would encourage you to continute texturing the bike add some decals etc.

overall this is wonderful work. keep the work up. o yea where did you get the blue prints for the bike.

hey this is sweet, as a car modeler lol i love to see things like this. anyways, where did u get the bps for this or did u freehand it. whatever you did, you did a great job. Ur model is awesome but ur renders need work. I owuld love to see some nice renders for this bike to give it some realisim, keep it up man

Hey guys,
Thank you for the really warm comments!
They really motivate me to push it further...

Concerning the blue prints, well guys... It is kinda funny the way i got them...

About 2yrs ago i bought a 1/12th model of this bike. After analysing all the details and thinking of the people whom i would call Artists who worked on a concept like this, Miniatures!
Anyway, it's just an amazing piece of work in itself...
So, i decided to recreate a 3D version of it which of course would take much longer to achieve

Right now, the bike is again back into pieces in a small box on my desk without any decals or paint, still! lol

I also did lots of research on the internet to find photos which i am also using as reference.
There was also a pdf manual that i got so, from that i have made some print outs for some parts/sections i needed and i am working from that...
In other term, a whole lot of references

Whereas for the renders, i'm not too worried about it for the time being because i haven't really done any texturing yet so i'm not really doing expensive renders with it for now... But will sure work at it

Anyway, just thought i'd post a small update coz i have been working on the engine for the last couple of days so...here it is





Kevin

Here are more renders... well, better ones :p

C&C welcome!






Kevin

Relly nice moddeling.........I love your last renders, really cool

The texturing seems to less realistic to me, try to put nice bump maps, and had little dettails in the color to make your project perfect

Best Regards

how are u doing those renders. they look like an occlusion but ALOT better. they look nice, you can really see the detail

Hey Hi Guys!

It's been a little while since my last post...

Gamester:
Thanks for the warm comment
I haven't really done any texturing on the bike yet... All you see are only some Materials that I whacked onto each parts for the moment

echo red & 99GsTurbo:
Thanks for your warm comments as well Really appreciate it
You're right echo red... I was trying to do some Occlusion tests while thinking of the whole design of the bike.
I'm trying to think of alternatives and also learning a few things so that I can put my final together...

*So, any idea or suggestions would be cool to hear

I've added some more details so far and I have also fixed some modelling, well just optimizing a bit :nod:

Not sure if you'd see any difference though... At least now it looks like it has some guts hehee

Just some screen grabs


Here's the right side




The left side




I have also spent some times doing some unwrapping :eek3:



Anyway, hope you like the updates

Kevin

A pint of example is worth a gallon of advice!!

Looks really good! The amount of detail you crammed in is amazing. Awesome!

I'm glad you think it's a tute haha :attn:
However i'm not sure if anyone has learnt anything from it
This project is definitely old, I had to stop working on it for about 6 months due to other important projects so, i am back on it again now


Anyway, here's another updates...



Gona go to bed now...
Hopefully some more updates tomorrow
Have a great weekend everyone!

Kevin

this project is comming along so damn nice im loving it. Man i cant wait to see this finished. Ohh and about my last comment, I was saying your render is way better then the occlusion lol sorry for mis-writing things. I love ur renders, they are so nice because ur clay shows nice detailed and its now over exposed. Ha i wish i can get mines that nice. good job n e ways.
