Truck_Project // Roundtable 1  |   Order by default Post by JimB // Dec 19, 2008, 4:06am JimB Total Posts: 341 Hi all I have zipped up a small project for TS and made it available here,it is a pickup truck,some time ago I saw an article about making a re usable vehicle template and thought it a very good idea as getting the wings/wheel wells to look right is'nt so easy. The project is ready to be point edited to make it conform to the drawing,in the "Templates" folder there are the full model template and a half model these I included if anyone wants to use them with thier own drawings,I hope this will be useful. A Tip: The template is all quads for easy subD'ing so the only triangles you get are the ones you introduce yourself I recommend you try to avoid them if possible.

I'd be interested in seeing any creations that people make from this, to see the range of results that people come up with :) Thanks!

I also want to thank you for the camel today. I really had some fun doing some displacement painting with it in TS. Here is a picture of the truck. I'll get the rest of the details in tonite or tomorrow. Mind if I reload the finished model here? Thanks Again. Rich Post by RichLevy // Dec 19, 2008, 4:13pm RichLevy Total Posts: 1140 Ya know, I think I like it just like this. TS SoftPaint Brush and 2 levels of SDS. Lightly touch the edges to get a nice round over look. SoftPaint Brush in TS might not be as powerful as some of the other tools on the market, but it does a great job. I use it for things like this all of the time. Under Carriage coming next :) Rch Post by RichLevy // Dec 19, 2008, 5:23pm RichLevy Total Posts: 1140 Thanjks for the fun Jim... It ain't perfect, but it was fun to ,play around with, I have not done any autos in a very long time so this was a nice head start to play around with :) Here is a picture, and if anyone wants to ,play along further here is the model I expanded on from Jim's base... Rich Post by JimB // Dec 19, 2008, 9:26pm JimB Total Posts: 341 Thanks Rich for taking part,nice truck but a little too much subD for my (realtime) taste. :) Mind if I reload the finished model here? No not at all,thank you for sharing. Jim Post by RichLevy // Dec 20, 2008, 3:00am RichLevy Total Posts: 1140 The non sds version is basically your model, I only added some cuts... RealTime... it works great in TS realtime :) Rich
