Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Started with the hood which i fleshed out in polys and its still in its poly form. I consider the hood to be completed as there are no more components for it, just needs smoothing for the final version.

I stopped at this point to really plan out how i wanted the mesh to go as it would define my mesh going into the 1/4 panel and i didnt want to have any problems with the sharp lines and holes for the lights/grill or foglights.

The bumper still needs the grill/lights/foglights to be completed but i will add those after i flesh out more of the car.

The door actually has depth and door handle and such incase i want to make it open for any reason. So if i feel like modeling the interior its one less step(plus i think it makes it look better when modeling)
Ive taken a day or so to plan out the rear 1/4 panel but while i do i will start the sideskirt.
I think the sideskirt and rear 1/4 panel to the beams over the window and around the windshield are all one piece if im looking at it right so it i might have more Work in Progress pics as im working on them.

The colors are just a quick way for me to see what layer everything is on and where pieces seperate.

This was only a test and it now back in low poly form.
What do you think?

Your modeling is looking very good so far. You have allot more experience than me, but i guess i can make the most of that.
I like the fact that you got your Fog light holes in early... though good luck getting the crease to run through them
I opted to model them in later, as to maintain they're integrity, and to also keep a realistic crease. I look forward to seeing how you go about solving this.
Anyway, like you were saying in my thread... the rear end is going to be a Royal pain in the a$$
I'm actually looking forward to trying to figure it out... i hate it when it's just a simple Procedure all the way through the model... is nice to be challenged... so when you do figure it out... your better off.
Anyway, really nice start. I look forward to seeing this progress.
I'm not going to be Updating for a couple of day, simple because i wont have anything to show. I have a really busy Weekend ahead of me :mg: But i should have something (hopefully) by Sunday or Monday.
Have fun

, careful planning when i was lying out the mesh made it pretty easy.I was trying to go with a Burnt Orange instead of a Gold but i guess i failed....
