Given these shots, I could have easily been tricked into thinking these were photos of bikes. Most excellent --- thanks for sharing!

[luuckyy]

The Kawa is comming along very good !!!

[Claude9]

I had a bit of free time to edit some more, still got a few things to sort out (add shock, steering damper, screen texture proper) and add more logos.
Here's how it's looking at the moment....

What did you render these Bikes in?

[Claude9]

Truespace 3.2, i use this only to render.

Home brew paint job ;)

I was just wondering about that because of the reflection on the floor. Don't think AC3d will do that. Love your textures. That's something I can't do myself.

I'm making a bike right now myself. It's a sci-fi hoverbike.

[Claude9]

My latest model for those that are interested, 2007 gsx-r1000, made a few mods from standard bike (single exhaust, race footrest's) it's not quite finished yet.

that looks pretty have you ever thought about making a design concept of your own?

[Claude9]

Yeah i've thought about making my own design, what with all the parts i've made, but prefer to make replicas of real bikes

[nightoftheroundtable]

well what ev. its your choice. wether it be concept or real. still you do a good job. keep up the good work.

[Claude9]

Had a little bit of free time to knock this up..

[nightoftheroundtable]

not to sound rude dont take it the wrong way.

but what extra details did you add. to me it looks like the same bike but with different textures.


which I must commend you for making the textures look real.

dont take this post the wrong way but I dont see much difference except texture. other than that nice job there man.

[Claude9]

Different forks, mudguard, exhaust and the tail unit has been changed, plus some minor tweaks to fairing ;)

[SAT]

A little Subdiv on the tires would look nice too.

[nightoftheroundtable]

well thats pretty nice looking. I wish I could make awsome textures like that.

[Claude9]

SAT - no subdivision because their made for a game, gotta keep poly count low..

[SAT]

Oh, I see, said the blind man

:rolleyes: Truespace 3.2, i use this only to render.

[Wiggles]

how do you learn to do such detailed models?

Do you have to take a class?

[Claude9]

I'm self taught

[Wiggles]

Wow :)

I know us newbs are like leeches when it comes to knowledge, but do you have any references to the material you used to learn?

Or did you just keep playing around until you figured it out :)

[Claude9]
