Finally found some time to finish off my mini model I started ages ago, so here it is:



Modelled and rendered in Cinema 4D CE 6.

I realised I should have modelled the bonnet, doors etc. seperately, but it was too late, so I left it.

Any comments welcome,

Robin

cool I like the shine of it, and the sharp texture. But just one question: How did you do the windows?

Looks great!

Is that a nurbs model though? - I had no idea that Cinema4 was nurbs (currently looking for a nurbs modeller with a great renderer).

Thanks for the comments
Jurgen: I used a glass material - reflection, refraction, transparency and sharp specularity.
VanB - I used the hyper nurbs smoothing in Cinema 4D if thats what you mean. I started off with a cube and extruded parts and moved points/faces around etc. and then put it all under a hyper nurbs subdivision thing to make it all smooth and nice
Penfold - Sorry about that - Let me know when you see it

very good mini. It looks like one of those models that appear in '3D world' and 'computer arts' magazine.

very nice indeed, NURBS rock!

how about a low poly conversion using texture maps instead of shaders, for the games writers! 500-1000 polys.

it's very nice, but unless it can be used realtime, what good is it?

cinema 4d looks like it can do the bizz, i may have to give it a try.

Regards, GeeCee3.

can you bake textures with 4D?

it would look super amazing realtime with baked textures.

The more I see, The more I like.

are the hyperNURBS constructed within a low poly control mesh the same as SUB-DIVISION objects?

HyperNURBS is NOTHING close to classic n.u.r.bs as known in softimage and/or Maya.


Cinema 4D's Hypernurbs object is yet another derivation from the catmull-clark algorithm therefore the exact same thing as Max's MeshSmooth modifier,except for the code itself...This is also true for any "Sub-D" function in any program.

They are SubdiviDED polygonal surfaces,nothing to do with parametric surfaces like nurbs or splinepatches.

In other words,NO,this isn't Nurbs it's polygon modeling.


Nurbs users should consider either rhino,amapi or Softimage.

SplinePatche users should consider Lightwave,animation master or the freeware spatch or hamapatch.

Later

Edit:oh and nice render although it could use a little Dirt but I'm sure that this isn't a problem with the latest c4d.

Thanks for the comments,
I made it in the free version of cinema 4d (CE 6). I wanted to experiment with HDRI but I don't think thats possible in the free version.
I might try a low poly version, but I'm not sure
