Very well done, I'd have no idea where to start doing something like that!

Wow! That is impressive. You'd struggle to tell it wasn't a photo of a real MINI.

that is very impressive! I have skills in 3D studio Max and I don't think I could do that! Very very impressive! How did you start?

Did you take pics from angles and work from them? I'd like to see a 3D fly around!

Is Maya like 3D studio where you construct the whole scene or is it different?

Very interested in knowing how you did this!

Cool!

Hi Laura, basically I used front/rear/top/side views of the car as template to work from (pics from the back of the owners manual), and yes Maya is like 3D Studio Max, I started out with a box and went from there.. and about a month and 1.7 million polygons later I ended up with that...

Excellent work! I know the extent of the work that would go into that then!

Fancy rendering a fly by/fly past? Only take about the same time as the creation to render!

Cool! Got me itching to do a bit of work on 3DMax now! I tried doing a walk through of my new house that was a mission! Cool though!

My beginning, will take much longer than a month as I have just begun on learning modeling. Interestingly the basic idea of using the silhouettes at the back of the brochure is how I was suggested to start too.

I have currently added a door to this, Ill add it once its nice enough.
