Making of Modified Megane
Posted by hp at 2008-01-14 18:19:15 with 5119 reads.
The “Modified Megane” project started as a personal challenge to improve my skills in modeling. The car modeling was one of my greatest handicaps ever, so I thought it was the right moment to prove my skills. I choose the Renault Megane as it's one of my favorite cars, in fact I have one and could get as many reference pictures as I needed. For the development of this project I used 3dsMax 9 and Vray. The next step was to find some blueprints with were good enough quality and more information about spoilers, rims,... In the beginning, my idea was to perform only the modeling of the car, but when I finished, I decided to make a single render with a extremely simple environment that did'nt subtracted importance to the car itself. Let us see how I created the "Modified Megane."

We are finally back up and will be moving to a new and faster server. By then we expect to have the security bugs sorted out so that this does not happen again.
We are sorry for any inconvenience this has caused. -
