Studiotools practice: Modeling an Audi S5 spoke

24Jul07

I’m starting a new automotive oriented Studiotools modeling exercise: An audi S5 spoke
(I have in the idea to model the car later on, but let’s start with some nicely done spokes!)
If you’re looking for something to model, it could be a nice way to compare the way we are approaching the object.
Here is the background image I used.

The basic set up of the .wire file (Studiotools) is available here for download.wire file set up

Above, a preview of the file
- The file isn’t set up with units!
- Here are some more exterior references pictures of the Audi S5 coupe.

So if you’re filling to model this Audi spoke and talk about it drop me a line.
As you may know I’m not an advanced user of the software, I’m learning it.

This time I would like to put emphasis on the renderings, a time consuming exercise but that gives a nice felling of satisfaction.
I’ll be posting later on the evolution of my work…

To give a little more visibility to this ‘invitation to model the Audi S5 spoke’, I posted this thread:
Audi S5 rim: AliasStudio (StudioTools) modeling on the www.cg-cars.com’s forum
…yes…my screen name is chupicho!

…10 days later…I finally achieve this exercise! See the work in this post.

First studiotools’s automotive modeling: Audi TT

12Jun07

So…after a few month of Alias Studiotools practices, time as come to see how I behave aproachingĀ  a car modeling (Here’ are the links to get the blueprints). I won’t browse the problems I encountered during this exercise, the the list could be endless. However I think the Audi TT was a good car choice for a first automotive modeling : It’s shape is clearly ‘readable’ and there is not many ‘tricky’ parts (…and that has for ending point… the modeling a legendary car!)
The renderings are done with imagestudio (A first experience to me to) .

Here is the modeling itself. Sure there is a lot to say about it. I’ll be happy to hear about it
