For the Anglia 105E boys ...

[Dave_3d]

Just been working on this 3D model recently. Early days yet. Getting some good help from 105E owners with ref photos

 

Thought you might like to see the progress.

 

Will add trailer arches, etc. later.

thats mint!

 

what software you using for this?

[ZetecVan 2.0]

Nice.

 

 

But I bet you can't put a fruit pastille in your mouth without chewing it.

[Daggle]

That is wicked, any chance of getting it put onto a poster?? Dunno what the feasability of that is??

[escortmad79]

Are you doing one without Super trim too?

[Guest M.Bird DOHC]

Nice.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet dude!!!!!

[escortmad79]

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet dude!!!!!

That reminds me of Kat Von D

Thanks guys,

 

I am working away. Added front indicators, adjusted more body panels, added deep dish rims ... and a 60s colour. Trying to keep it mostly period - amazingly difficult to get into a 60s mindset without wanting to use garish colours, monster rims, huge exhausts, carbon fibre etc.

 

First off want to make a real sleeper with period mods - so that those who are in the know, will instantly smile and understand. Posted this in another forum and the kids just don't get it - "old, boring car".

 

What period mirrors were used ? I take it that mirrors were not standard ? Apart from the bullet mirrors, what other styles are period ?

 

And any other suggestions for period accessories and mods ?

Mate, that just get's better and better

 

On the early models, mirrors werent standard, but I believe they were an option. You could try some bullet style mirrors, they have been around for ages now, and are still a hit with the Mini boy's. Other than that, a nice peep mirror on top of the window frame.

thats stunning mate, i wouldnt have a clue how to even start something like that!!

 

any pics from the start? would be interested to see where you start from and how you build it up...

[martymk1]

thats nice, you should do other models aswell

 

[Dave_3d]

I have done other models http://www.dmmultimedia.com

 

Yes, here are some pics showing me starting on the front wing and some wire frames to show how I built it up. With careful positioning of the edges and a smooth modifier it gets to the smoothed clay versions you see.

 

I also have a full 3D model in DWF format (requires a free viewer) that you could download and rotate ... if anyone is interested ?

 

Here is the start, just starting to create the front wing/bonnet area. I grab an edge (or set of edges) and extruded them into another set of polys, and move the points around again, uisng the blueprints I set up as a guide. Slowly building up the shape, polygon by polygon :

 

 

Little later on :

 

 

 

early version before cutting out the doors/bonnet/boot :

 

 

and as a clay render. Exactly the same idea when you put a real car in primer to check the smoothness of panels etc.

In a word, awesome!

[john_3.0s]

you have got some talent there bud!

 

interesting stuff, looking forward to see the resulting model!
