Gavril Grand Marshal

I'm gonna try to model, would you recommend blender, max, or what?

 

I agree with that completely though, just wanted to state that Maya isn't *that* terrible... It feels like Maya was never really made for modeling, it was made to do everything "pretty decently" and modeling was part of that, but it also feels like Max was made mostly for modeling and coincidently you can also render and animate in it... Though, I never really felt making cars was easy in Max. I always used Zmodeler for cars and I loved Max for buildings, but I could never quite get the hang of cars in that. I couldn't even get the symmetry thing to work, sadly... But I can do that in Maya easily(it's pretty hidden, but it's there...)

I'd say Max, for reasons Gabester stated above. I never liked Blender because I didn't like the camera, and it kept going out of edit-mode as soon as I moved the mouse :/. But that's just my opinion, some people would prefer Blender.

 

Gabester, you said that you have already completed the inside the Grand Marshal and has already spent a lot of time. Is there a problem? (sorry for my bad english.)

 

It looks pretty much as the 95' Buick Roadmaster, saabkyle04 made a video about his old one so i think it may be helpful for details in interior ans such.

I was browsing on some weird website and I found this. I'm not sure who the artist is, but it's actually pretty good. BeamNG fanart has begun!

(imported from here)

 

That's a pretty terrible use of Photoshop filters and the smudge tool, but its good to see that a fan-base is getting riled up. Where did you find that, exactly?

 

I was searching around for a car in RoR (no luck yet). I was on some huge forum for RoR, and I came across this picture. The website wasn't in english, but this was one of the pictures on there. I'm not entirely sure which website it was from. I just dragged the pic to my desktop and left. I forgot about it, so I'm uploading it a week later. Why? Do you know who made it?

 

I'm using Google to look for it, via the image drop feature. it doesn't seem to exist.

EDIT:: Its in the russian site that comes up, in the spoilers.

 

Wow, that's my first work, thanks

 

Nice interior, I love the wooden part with "Grand Marshal" written on top.

I'm curious to see how the Police version is going to look like, especially the light bar.
Is there a taxi version planned too?

 

I have an idea, now that you've done inside all of the cars ... Why not do a third crash compilation?
(Sorry for my bad english)

 

You mean, that there will not be any new video in this month, if yes, it's so sad.

 

Nice! Looks pretty anti-aliased as well! Anti-aliasing... That made me curious. What kind of plan do you have according to graphicwise? Maybe realistic lightning, TXAA etc.

Or tessellation. Would be pretty cool to have that if you're driving on a stone road. (don't think that you'll have that though)

 

Grand Marshal looks like a beauty.
I like it.

 

Wow that's pretty! You did an amazing job once again, so realistic!

Curious request/question: Does the clock light up at night, if not, could you make it so? I think you already mentioned the dials light up at night or something(may be wrong) somewhere on the forums...

I feel like I'm spamming every post I make saying "omg this looks amazing"... But I honestly, honestly don't have words for how cool it looks, and 99% of the time I can't see anything that "could be improved" either

 

They don't have night yet... At least not to my knowledge.

 

Cryengine already provides a day and night transition.
You can see it in 4:46 of this video
