Got borred modified Smart car from (zoo render)

Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world

Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Got borred modified Smart car from (zoo render)

Hello, I took alook at zoorender.com and noticed that they had a few models for download. One of these models was a "smart car" so I downloaded it and I decided to take some of my stuff off of my jeep and put it on the car to see what it looks like... What do you think? The only thing I did to the car was give it a "chop top" and I widended the wheelbase, and made the wheel wells bigger. Is this something I can use on a demoreel? Obviously if I give credit to the person or company who modeled the car? Thanks,
Brian

Hey! Thanks for the advice Schmick. I got permission from CGDB to use their smart car that I modified in my demo reel. Not sure How I am going to use it, so i might leave it out... We'll see. THanks for all of your comments everybody!
