Future Car Model Turnaround from Omar Farahat on Vimeo.

Title: Future Car Model (2008)
Objective: To model a realistic car, something futuristic using current cars and adding my own spin to it. Polygonal modeling from a box to show box modeling skills.
Model in: Maya 2008
Texture in: Photoshop CS3

The above is an updated shorten version of the text below; taking out unneeded text. Done after the critique in class.

Project:

• Model a realistic car, something from the future.
• The car was model from a box; using only polygonal modeling.
• The car was later used in a scene of another project. It was parked in front of a store.
  

Requirements:

• Most look realistic, using high polygons.
• Can use real cars as reference but must be change to not look like the original too much.
• Use chrome paint.
• Use bump maps on the tire.
• The final render must show the whole car.
• Render with a 640x480 resolution.
• Use the provided HDRI image (Use for lighting.)

Additional Bonus But Were Not Required:

• Render a 3D turnaround that is 30 seconds.
• Transparent windows.
• Model the interior (Used low poly since it was not going to be seen but needed because of the transparent windows).
• Use textures on several parts of the car but are not noticeable.
• I Added fire particles to make it look like its flying.
