One more done.

Well modelling part, that is.

I know the cockpit interior is missing. I am going to reuse the one made for EJ12, as I don’t really have time nor resources to make individual ones for each car. speaking of which, hm…Which car should I do next? i would love to make McLaren, but Williams looked nice back then as did Minardi, Jaguar had some interesting curves and BAR shouldn’t be to hard to texture.
Decisions, decisions.

New old stuff?

EJ12_3
Different front, rear wings and endplates for EJ12. I've also started mapping that one. In between I managed to model one of my all time favourite F1 cars Arrows A23 also from 2002.
Looks neat in my opinion. Plenty left to doo and side pods were hell to make right.

Back to 2002

I’ve had this one laying on my hard drive for some time, recently I finished modelling and I am in mapping process right now. It is rich with polys, I haven’t really been holding back as I usually do.
I plan to make engine cover winglet, that curvy front wing and maybe low down force rear wing, side pod chimneys are removable (though I’m not sure that version was ever used). I’m also going to make 3D body lines, but I’ll make one regular version to  just in case.

Look at that rear end I find it beautiful.

Finally some art

 

Even though it stands in description that this is art blog i haven’t really been posting any art yet. Until now that is! :-)

Here are my Muse Christmas competition entries. Please have in mind that since I updated hardware I haven't been able to use either my scanner nor min drawing tablet, so these images were translated through digital camera an painted using standard PC mouse.

P.S. I wrote to Santa to send me a new drawing tablet. ;-)

Everything is shit right now

 

I’m not in bright place right now. And have zero motivation to continue with this s***. Luckily there is at least one thing (besides my two sons) that keeps me sane, and that is Muse Christmas competition @ Muse.mu

Basically you should design something both Christmassy and Muse.

There are some cool prizes to win! Interested? Read more here: http://muse.mu/news/article/774/christmas-competition/

And hurry dead line is December 5th.

Some F1 stuff again

Rear suspensions are done! I even figured out how the rear brake duct looks like. I saw that they were missing on converted “f1 2011” cars. Wonder if they are there in original game or did Codemasters just didn't bother to put them there.

And I’ve also painted the fw33. It looks like this now.

Long gone…

 

Hi, Some of you might noticed I haven’t been updating blog to often lately.

How long has it been, I don’t dare to look.

Here are some WIP screenshots of what I managed to scrape here and there past few months.

I made some changes to Ferrari F150 launch version, turned it to Australian version.
