Wheels and 3D interior and that front ram thing look good, too, great work so far. Is it ingame yet? Some ideas for improvements: -double rear wheels? -blood stained seats? -A steering wheel, it seems to be missing. ------------------ -temporary placeholder for a new cool signature-

[picture] looks liek a complex mass of... crap Doing a proper 3D model of an engine is a rather hard job. This is about how I do it: First, its good to have as many images of the type of engine you want to do as possible, from a great variety of viewpoints, if possible. As it's about impossible to build a 3D model of an engine with all details with a resonable polycount, I try to see characteristic, big shapes in all that mess like the block, or big tubes and piping, black boxes, mechanical transmissions and such stuff. Then I try to build a reduced base shape of those objects, the fine detail on the surfaces can be done with a texture better. When I do an engine, I don't try to recreate an exisiting engine with 100% accuracy, it's more like that I build parts until it looks messy and believable enough for my taste. ------------------ -temporary placeholder for a new cool signature-
