LOD Group

Screen shots of the diffent level of detail groups from 500-2500-500 poly limit seen in the top right hand side of each shot.

Modeling and texturing

 These are a coupple of screen shots from when i was modeling the car.. i found the modeling allot more difficult and time consuming than i expected. i did have a few problems mainly not knowing with type of modeling i should use i.e converting the poly mesh to sub dss ect but after i checked the breif i realised the small polly could ment there couldnt be too much detail.

This is a piced of the model i converted to sub dees and played around with. i like the look of the sub d model it gives a much smoother look than polys without the need for smoothing.

Below are some images of the model once i had fixed if for 3d printing. this process took quite some time because of the way i had constructed the model with separate plaines they all had to be stitched together and checked to make sure they were not overlapping ect. The main concept i understood for getting the model printed was that there needed to be an inside and an outside like a solid cube,, this worked for me and my model printed out fine once i checked it in Netfab. In Netfab i had to fix some faces because they were facing the wrong way once i did this the model was fine

Digital model

Basic light setup to check model and texture.

.HDRI light scene

My 3d Model textured HDR light and rendered out then composed onto a photograph to present. I am pleased with the final outcome of my model I would have liked to have used a higher poly count but as this was my first atempt at modeling a car it was good to understand the concept.

3D Model

Printed 3D model.. I decided to paint the model once i had some pictures of it to give it another look. i am pleased with the model although i would have liked to have it a little larger so the details could be seen. I like the idea of being able to get models printed out like this i will defently be getting some more models printed for my show reel ect.
