Starion Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Hi all, Ive been practising with max a lot more and im really starting to get the hang of it, this is my latest attempt at something: A knockoff of a Nissan 350Z .aka. A 2007 modern euros. Ive been working slowly for about a week on it now. Heres the latest screen I have of it so far: Its at about 400 polys I would say now. Its progressing well in my eyes seeing im such a newb at modeling which must be a good thing.. Will be realeased for sa when its done.

flashg Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Very nice model but looks too much like real one to be a knockoff car Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/265467-2007-euros-wip-sa/#findComment-4019587 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starion Posted January 17, 2007 Author Share Posted January 17, 2007 Very nice model but looks too much like real one to be a knockoff car Thanks for the comment man. I know a few people have said its too good to be a knockoff but I have a plan, why not make 2 versions of the same model? one version can be slightly lower poly, have gta engine, textures, interior and other features and the other version can be the same base model, but be fairly higher poly and have the proper interior, engine and textures and so on. good idea? Little update on the car as well ( done the basic door.. but havnt started the window) Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/265467-2007-euros-wip-sa/#findComment-4019834 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mista_G Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 want to make it more knock off? make it the roadster model, add some egg shells to the back behind the seats with some chrome bars and maybe do something about the front lights and rear lights, would look kinda cool to have the rear lights maybe extend all the way around the back? have it so theres a light that extends from the 2 corner pieces and connects in the middle so its one continuous light at the back. And the front, if you wanted maybe have an L shaped light, curve it out around the inside and make it look a little like the head lights on the 2007 G35 Sedan! other then that I like it. I hate the 350z so i'm just throwing in my 2 cents about what you should do to make it so i'd like lol I would take the G35 Coupe over the 350z regardless of performance, looks sexier k, bye Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/265467-2007-euros-wip-sa/#findComment-4020495 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gouveia Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Mista_G is right, but I think you could make like this: NO EXTRA - Roadster model EXTRA 1 - Roadster model + Eggshells EXTRA 2 - Hardtop You know what I mean?

Stene Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 I don't understand why everybody call Euros as this. 350Z looks nothing like Euros. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/265467-2007-euros-wip-sa/#findComment-4020835 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gouveia Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Can you even read? 2007 euros [WIP] [sA]It says 2007! TWO THOUSAND SEVEN! And SA is set on '92, so do your math.

Picolini Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Looking great! As everyone else said it does look too close to the original to be SA style as a knock off. I would suggest dumbing down some detail, such as the front grill, at least for the SA version, SA cars don't go that far really, they have bulkier and thicker grills with fewer slots. I like Mista_G's wrap around lights in the rear idea, the front ones might look good too. Also the eggshell thingy sounds cool if I'm thinking of the right thing, Like this? @Stene, this is supposed to be what the 300zx/Euros would have evolved into is what he means by 2007 Euros. Of course it looks nothing like the original Euros! With that said, I think it should have a little modification to the name.... maybe add a Z or something... Euros Z, Euros ZX.... something like that. Sorry, can't help you w/ the double sided thingy... too new to max Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/265467-2007-euros-wip-sa/#findComment-4022496 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starion Posted January 24, 2007 Author Share Posted January 24, 2007 Thanks for the comments everyone again! Started the little thingys that will make it a knockoff: still need to model the glass cover for the lights: Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/265467-2007-euros-wip-sa/#findComment-4027106 Share on other sites More sharing options...
92F Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Christ on a bike, looks like theres hella poly waste on those lights. Rather than having 5 vertical steps, surely you can suffice with only one vertical step and maybe lower the horizontal steps?

-/TNT\- Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Loving it. Like the guys said, the lights could have less steps, you hardly notice them in SA anyway. I always think knockoffs are harder, they need more imagination and creativity. You've made the body really good, low-poly as hell too. Nicely done starion.

Starion Posted January 25, 2007 Author Share Posted January 25, 2007 Thanks everyone! I'm pleased its so low poly really. So I can add more detail to it when its in gta, I have the power..

Only the gts R32 Skylines were rear wheel drive, all the skyline models before the R32 were rear wheel drive I believe though.
