erik...........

 

how much are they paying you?

 

Nobody is paying me.

And i dont even get credit the photo i took pfft..

 

il remember that.lol

 

I don't think its one of your photos....

This picture shows the ones I mean, and I have about 5 or 6 of the said wheels.

 

 

Weller still make 10" wheels........

 

Yes but not 10" 8 spokes.

does it matter what it looks like aslong as it goes better and i heard its getting hard to get wellers now as we tryed ordering some the other day

 

Are you suggesting that the wheels they use down there are better than the 8 spokes? The wheels are the one part of my car that look anything like decent

Hello erik are you a ministox driver

 

it said its not finished and that means ive not done all the detail on the wheels what wheels do you run on your mini 5spokes ? must be mad good look to you

 

I might not be able to race again, but thanks anyway. I ran white "8 spokes", which was what the car had when I got it. I've always thought they looked better than the ones some of the drivers I saw at Yarmouth used. But sadly Weller no longer supply such wheels , well, not 10 inch ones anyway.

Can anyone tell me how to view how many polys I have used? And also, does anyone know where I can download 3ds Max 3?

Follow the buttons that have been highlighted by the red dots....

does anyone know where I can download 3ds Max 3?

 

I don't know, as far as im aware there is no longer the trial avaible as its a very old version, so maby have to get it on Ebay or somthing, iv been searching and found nothing

 

Thanks Rikard.

 

And Tombo, I think that Mini looks good, but it would look much better with white 8 spokes.

Good effort Rikard, it looks great for a first attempt. Mine is poor, and I have pretty much given up on it.

 

Can anyone tell me how to view how many polys I have used? And also, does anyone know where I can download 3ds Max 3?

Coming to a track near you....

Nice skin Rikard, that must have taken ages.

Go here and click "Modding Help"

Any ideas?

I was up at crimond and they all rod and look surprised if they crash.

 

cheers

sparky

 

You sure that wasn't the Hot Saloons you were watching?

but would this thing be any use if I finished it?

 

It depends on how good it is, same as my Mercades i made, as in my case your first project is usally just a learning curve, and the second attempt will be much better

 

Good to see your having a try

 

I suppose your right, I expect this first project to be poor in comparison to others' work. How are you getting on with the Merc?

their bangers are tamer than rookie bangers, and that says alot.

 

cheers

sparky

 

They aren't. I saw rookie bangers in Yarmouth, and there was more contact in the first 3 laps at Crimond than there was in a whole race at Yarmouth.

fiesta?

 

No its a shoebox with holes cut in it.

I started this today, using Nick M's tutorial. The next thing on the tutorial is extruding the door pillars. Comments welcome.

 

 

I think I might be "trying to run before I can walk", but would this thing be any use if I finished it?

this is my lastest render and skin i tried to make it look preraced and old lol

comments plz

rodder

 

 

p.s the mushy one was my first attempt at it but forgot the door plates lol!

 

I think you have achieved the "preraced and old" look, although I'm not sure those wheels are appropriate for a banger.

the sperm on the side of the car?!

 

Black sperm? I think he better see a doctor

 

Nice skin and render Allstar

Here is a render of the Andrew Blackhall skin, as painted by Martin.

 

 

And also thanks Rikard for linking to the Hotrod wheels.

Here are a couple of Garfield decals. One of which I used on me P5, as I fancied a change from Spongebob.

garfield.zip

Thanks for the advice chops, assuming it was intended for me.

After reading BWS Eric should definately invest in some sort of anti swearing device.

 

I never knew there was such a thing. Couldn't you have told me sooner?

Here are my latest attempts, renders of my Pre68 car for Martin's League.

 

 

missed this one out from me last post

 

I like what you've done with that one, good job.
