chops660 Posted April 17, 2006 Report Posted April 17, 2006 (edited) looking good m8 dont have much of a clue about mapping etc, myself.. Edited April 17, 2006 by chops660
reg126 Posted April 17, 2006 Report Posted April 17, 2006 Well its certainly recognisable as a MK2 CORTINA ESTATE. Only bits I think you need to sort out a little are the front and rear. The front wings at the front edge should be straight and at a much less of an angle...only slightly off vertical....you have them more like an Fc victor 101 wings and front....hmmm The rear from side view is also slightly wrong looking...again at the extreme rear. the change of angle from the slope of the tailgate to vertical needs to appear slighly higher than where you have it.. Think you got the back end (from a side view) more along the lines of the Mk1 Cortina Estate which had a more pronounced back end. Please finish working on it as you have done a great job so far. I much prefer mk1 and 2 tinas to the later models so it would be cool to have them available for uk dirt.
mcrew Posted April 17, 2006 Report Posted April 17, 2006 Thats well impressive! Add that to the A60 and the Anglia in use on TNB, and we could have an unders pre 70's meet.
Sparky961 Posted April 17, 2006 Report Posted April 17, 2006 I tend to select the faces to map in perspective mode as it allows you to move the view around while doing it. Select faces mode. select the faces you would like to map, ie, a side or front or top etc. Click M to select the template you are going to map the car to. once you have done that. click on the drop down menu that should say 'modifier list' and scroll down to UVW MAP. click that and then select the axis to fit the material on, once you have done that. click on the scroll down menu again. This time select UNWRAP UVW. and then click edit and you can modify the shape of the bits to make them fit on the template properly. On no circumstances though do you move single vertices, only move the whole thing and manipulate it as a whole, but if you're template is good you should not have to. Hope this helps. cheers sparky
