Ford Fiesta
« on: January 17, 2009, 08:11:56 am »
My new project, I've been working on it on and off for about a week.

It is a model of a Ford Fiesta LX 2004 (What my Mum has)

All textures are WIP, will be done when the modeling is finished.

Very nice, the modeling looks pretty solid so far!  Can you show a wireframe of the progress so far?
Keep up the good work!

Here's a wire (trying to keep it lowpoly so I can have lots in a scene, currently 544 polys)

Will post an update soon

P.S I plan to release this once I'm finished to whoever who wants it.

Wow looks great. How did you get the headlights to reflect light like that?

Good!  That looks very clean.  There are of course plenty of triangles and whatnot I could point out, but since you're leaving it low poly I have no issue with them.  I look forward to your progress.

Only 2 really noticeable problems I can see right now, the middle of the back side is a bit sharp, and the petrol hole is a little low poly.
Really nice work so far!

This is looking really good, great job so far.
But I also notice a problem on the doors, perhaps a bit hard to fix now, but still possible.
Sorry about drawing on you work BTW.

Cars are different in others countries I assume this is a UK based Ford Fiesta, and agrees with my old 4 Door Fiesta..... Rear wheel arch is part of door.

I like the way it looks like a Dagenham Dustbin!.... Keep up the good work .. you might need to look at your gutterlines, and the Bonnet (Hood for you Americans!) lines.

Are the tail-lights all one Red colour or should there be Rear indicators?
