you may remember I modelled the condom wrappers a while back, but now I'm on to my first major project in Lightwave. Its for school, so I don't really have as much time as I'd like to build it, but I'll keep working on it after the semester because its so much fun

I've never modelled a car before, in fact the most complicated thing I've completed to date is the condom wrapper.. so I'm learning as I go. Today i finally felt like i was getting somewhere, and I rendered it for the first time.

keep in mind its a WIP, and I haven't done any textures, or even finished modelling yet since I'm learning as I build it, I'll be going back and fixing some of my crappy work from when I started the car..

the car I'm modelling is a Mini - like the one I own, but with some different mods etc..

Just put in a steering wheel and an orange crate (for a seat). It'd be funny

Nice work!

I've brought down the specularity and reflection so its not so shiny any more.. and I've made it to look like my car... right now I'm working on the tire treads. its getting easier now that I'm starting to get the hang of Lightwave and 3d modelling, so I'm not really happy with the earliest parts I modelled for this car, but its certainly good enough to hand in for school. I've been trying to get going on other projects that will be due soon, but this is way too fun and I keep coming back to it
