'89 LeSabre

Qwerty_86 · Post by **Qwerty_86** » Thu Jul 01, 2004 11:52 pm

Finally I've started working on a C2 car! Anyways, it's a 1989 Buick LeSabre as the title states. Here's a few quick renders from one week's worth of work. The first four are rendered with colored polys and the last two are wireframes.

holy shit man.. very nice poly structure. its so clean!!

Aha! - Olds '88 (pretty much same), a good choice?!

Thanks. I like to keep my polys organized. It makes mapping a little easier.

Yeah, this is a GM H-Body which is a clone of the Olds Delta 88 and Pontiac Bonneville. That car in the pic Auto posted looks like a Bonneville from the taillights (spans across the width of the rear and has a slight curve near the rear quarters) and the huge side trim.

OI! Ya just gotta put that goofass Tiger Woods behind the wheel....

Awesome work. If you want to keep the wheels "flat" like that, you may want to consider the classic GM steel black wheels from the 80s/early 90s.

And Autopilot, what movie/show is that montage from?

Really good line up of the polys, how many?

Small Block · Post by **Small Block** » Fri Jul 02, 2004 8:46 am

Disagree on the wheels. The alloys look much better, plus they are flat on the outside, which the steelies aren't.

Excellent car indeed! We'll be waitting for it @ crashoc.

OMFG A tribute!

Make a dark blue! lol... ah damn I don't know where all the pics are of her. But It had FBI on one side and OPP on the other, no brakes, broken exhaust that shot flames, ah... rear end is gone now, and no doors but one... and it ceased to run a while back

Qwerty_86 · Post by **Qwerty_86** » Fri Jul 02, 2004 4:28 pm

Lol thanks. The wheels are actually the ones from the MM1 model (they were already in the file so I used them for the quick render. It will get GM FWD steelies (actually I'll reskin the Taurus wheels) for the final version. My C2 cars are usually built over the MM1 model (if you think about it, it's kinda like putting clay on top of a mold and then sculpturing it to match) because it's easier since I have a 3D model to work off of. I just add more detail to the C2 version.

I know the hood hinges on the front. It's really awesome. I was playing with the hood of one in the junkyard. I've never seen any other car that has this type of hinge.

I don't know how many polys at the moment. I've guessing it's around 1000-1500 for just the body (what you see in the pics). Tiger Woods sounds like a good driver for this car. I'll have to keep that in mind.

Sweet Qwertz i got an idea for this one allready

I got an idea too, why dont you just leave it how it is?!

You talkin' to Carboy, Auto?

Well you never know since most people hit the reply link in the last post.

Anyways, here's a pic of it with the GM steelies.

And the poly count is a lot higher than I expected.

It's for everything in the pics above.

It's a beaut! Are you going to do the Pontiac and Olds variants as well? I will make this one into my uncle Jim's old 89 LeSabre with white paint and that nasty blue cloth roof option!

Qwerty_86 · Post by **Qwerty_86** » Mon Jul 05, 2004 7:29 pm

I don't know about the other variations. I can't half-ass it like I do with my MM1 cars. Gotta remake the dash, front end, and rear end as well as the textures. I'll think about it.

Carboy717 · Post by **Carboy717** » Mon Jul 05, 2004 8:22 pm

HALF ASS! Well for "Half ASSED" cars they were pretty good qwertz , i hope u do the variants of them i really like the boneville

Qwerty_86 · Post by **Qwerty_86** » Tue Jul 06, 2004 9:59 pm

Yeah they were half assed. I was wondering how fast I could make them. Took about a week for each car and about 4 weeks to wait for someone to get me sounds. Now that I'm working on this LeSabre, I had to look at the old models and I found a very subtle mistake on the MM1 version. It's not a very noticable mistake unless you know what's wrong, but now I know why that car drove me nuts and I couldn't get it to look right!

Carboy717 · Post by **Carboy717** » Wed Jul 07, 2004 4:10 pm

lOl,oh well thats ok, any updates?

Qwerty_86 · Post by **Qwerty_86** » Wed Jul 07, 2004 7:08 pm

Jeez, keep it in your pants. Of course there's gonna be updates. It's just my mom keeps pushing me out of the house to "get some fresh air" so that means less time on the computer making this car. I'm just stalling for time between updates by just posting something useless to keep the topic alive.

Here's some pics of the first textured parts. Max is acting up on me now and it won't mirror on the axis line. It's mirroring on the model's centerline. I have to move the mirrored piece so that it looks right. But this isn't the most exact method so there will be little gaps. Any way to fix this so that it mirrors on the axis again?

Halo: Wheelman · Post by **Halo: Wheelman** » Wed Jul 07, 2004 7:18 pm

not saying you should make some "pimp" wheels or spinners but you should add some 3d to those stock

rims, so they at least look just a bit 3d?

Qwerty_86 · Post by **Qwerty_86** » Wed Jul 07, 2004 7:27 pm

They ARE 3D (see wireframe). I could push the middle part in more, but then when someone wants to use a hubcap instead of the steelie texture, then it'd just look weird.

Alan · Post by **Alan** » Wed Jul 07, 2004 10:19 pm

Doing a fine job, I like the wheels just the way they are! They're perfect for that model/style car.

Halo: Wheelman · Post by **Halo: Wheelman** » Wed Jul 07, 2004 11:13 pm

heres a new texture if wanted,

Halo: Wheelman · Post by **Halo: Wheelman** » Wed Jul 07, 2004 11:14 pm

and an ol' rusted one!

Carboy717 · Post by **Carboy717** » Thu Jul 08, 2004 7:16 am

Hey, if he needed texture he'd of ask for them by now.

Triad2Much · Post by **Triad2Much** » Thu Jul 08, 2004 8:10 am

man... i wouldn't bitch about someone trying to assist with car texturing. Not everyone can find good images like that. and besides that I bet he's not the only person who needed wheel textures.

Thats a 80s/early 90s Chrysler rim.
