Pitbull from C1 Movie

[TomeX]

Yes, now it looks neato, but try to flatten it a bit.

[Tony]

hehe, I thought so to for a while, Apex2003. Now, here it is.. kind of.

Will remember your points, Apex2003



A Question for you all. The bed, should that be a singel part, or not? Maybe I weld it in to the part infront of it. What do you think?

[TomeX]

Me thinks it should be with the front part.

[Beroc-Lord of Destruction]

UM... to nit pick is to pick it apart and look at everything that is wrong. In reality it would be, not enough time to give you a proper critique, with advice on what and how to fix.

I very much dislike the shape of the exhaust pipes... The video shows them quite similar as you go back. Mis matching them may not be a good way of making it more Apocalyptic.

[Apex2003]

[Tony]

Ah, then I follow, Beroc. My english is still expanding I will have a look at those pipes. I don't have the movie, lost my CD. Think I buy a new one, if I find it. But again, thanks, good you guys say what's good or bad.

Haha, ok ok.. Apex! Can't help myself sometimes, hehe.

Did Narrow the front adn so, added some stuff underneath to make it more "hot", and now an interior. Don't really know what to do with the rear part. Looks "blocky" to me.

Here's a little pic.. again

[random_monkey]

It looks better than it did before, but I still think you should lower the front a bit - maybe even make the wheels at the front a lil smaller. It's not got the 'evilness' it had in the vid, get me?

and is the front meant to curve inward?

[Grind and Click]

the ass end needs a bit more sticking outness, like that ^^ top left, so the back wheel is more central

the front needs sharpened up i think, so its alot sleeker, and the plough spaced out a bit more

and the cab set back a bit more, and just everything sharpened up a bit

looking promising at the moment tho

[Defcon]

Its not exactly the movie one, but i think its nice (since i´m the one who made it!)

btw, if u want it , Defcon Corporation

[TomeX]

After several analysis of the dark dark pics, I now will tell you one thing: make the wheels and fenders wider. From one of the pics you can see, that the fenders are as wide, as the hood, or whatever it is.

[Camarogeddon]

hey Tony:

If you want it as reference for the model, i'll dump all the parts of the vid that includes the pitbull into single .bmp's, zip'em and mail it to you.

[Tony]

Plan to do some more on it today. Try to fix those pipes. I'm not trying to make it more "Apocalyptic", just something nice. Forgot to mention that.

Thanks for your words, Grind_and_Click. Will remember them, and do something about it.

Yeah, I can take a look on it, Defcon. See how you set to whole thing up.

Ok. Thought they were really wide already, TomeX. Hehe, But I'll try that. See how it work out.

Sure, Camarogeddon. You send whatever that may aid me, on this little project. Would be appreciated.

Now, I'm off to feed it with some.. evil, or something!

[Camarogeddon]

Got the clip sorted, double sized, toned up the color a bit, and smacked'em into a zip.

you can get'em here

hope it helps.

[C2 Scientist]

There were some C1 car renders at Carmageddon.com, but the site has been gone for a long time. (and where does it take you now... ewwww) The renders included Pitbull from a nice, bright & clean front angle, really useful picture, if anyone knows the current place for all of the pictures... or are they all gone?

[Camarogeddon]

I believe Tony's already gotten that pic from Beast

[C2 Scientist]

Good, good.

Still, it'd be nice to find the pics again: I didn't grab them all previously.

[Tony]

OK, thanks, Camarogeddon.

Yep, I have the big render of it. It gave me a few details. A nice pic overall.

Have some updates. Have tested what you all have said. Tried to get more "evil" in it. Welded the bed into the body, fix the pipes (hope you like them better now, Beroc, or else you'll have to shout some more at me hehe), and some more. Have a few ideas of my own I will try later. Here are 2 pics:







(will smooth it out more later, I see there are some spots and the pics that look odd)

[DEMENTOR]

That looks like it's coming on really good. Keep up the good work.

[Econobrick]

I think the pipes looked better the way they were first. 4 on each side looks more suiting than 3.

Other than that, It's looking to be a neato item!

[Kruszchev]

oh.. in the start it realy lookt like a toy car... but that i said to you yesterday... but the newer version looks mutch better... and i agree to econo... 4 pipes not 3

[Grind and Click]

thats TOTALLY coming along swell, the back looks beter....(i hope youv changed it and its not the cammera angle tricking me) i think a lower wheelbase would work so its almost hideing behind its wheels as it were making the car look more planted , or is the "fish eye" view of the movie making it look like that?, also then putting the sled a bit more stretched and sticking out at the front

you think?

[Tony]

Maybe I'll go back to 4 pipes. If the public want it that way.

Yeah, I see the diffrence myself. Then, "Toy car". Now, growing in potential.

Haha, it's not a cameratrick, I've changed the rear. yeah, I'll try that, lower it. Ok, will edit the sled to se what comes out of it.

A new update pic tomorrow..

Thanks for your comments. Keep them coming..

[Grind and Click]

I love how your making this very "Car made by the people, for the people" LOL its cool

dont forget your the author, you dont have to listen to us



but i thought it show you what i meant by the bull sled more clearly, to see what you thought



sled 1 is what its kind alike now, and sled 2. is what i meant by longer sled connection pole to the car and wider more stretchy sled itself almost coming back on itself to the middle of the hood on the radiator fan, so if you want to try the 4 pipes again maybe try it with the more stretched design, see if that makes things click

i just think it would look cool with the lower wheelbase hideing upbeside those 2 front wheels

[Kruszchev]

dont think the "real" one has a long sled... its quite short but low

[Tony]

As promised, here's 2 new pictures. It's now a bit lower, moved the position of the rear wheel little forward, and the stuff around. Added engine, and.. some stuff I can't remember what names they have, a hatch at the rear. A new smoother grill. Updated interior, with new smoother dash. That front thingy is also updated. Will look more like the movie, I hope you'll agree with me. Still 3 pipes, so if you actually want 4, tell me.. Check out the pictueres and tell me what you think. Closer to a finished model maybe?

[Kruszchev]

fyfan... woops... swedish... means about the same thing as... Holy shit thats great

[n3wton]

very nice Tony! well done keep it up

[random_monkey]

man, that is looking seriously sweet

only thing I have quibbles with is the rear wings, they seem to go uber-thin in the middles of them, like they're gonna snap or something, maybe make them a little thicker?

[Grind and Click]

FYFAN!!

[Tony]

You got me thinking there for a while, random_monkey. "rear wings? What did he mean..", then it hit me. Yeah, it looks odd on the pic, but it's nothing to worry about. Done a few changes after I made those pics. Then I tested it in the game. I really like to drive it actually! Will start to skin in later this day.. skin parts that I don't need to change on the model.. perhaps! Hmpf.. guess that will take a few moments.

[Econobrick]

he means the rear fenders (or wheel-arches, even!)

[Tony]

Yeah, I got that. After some thinking.

Oh, by the way.. "fyfan" doesn't need to be something good. It can be the direct opposite too hehe, depends on what follows after it. Something good, or bad. "Fyfan, va bra", that's good. "Fyfan, va dåligt", that's, not good.. hehe

[Grind and Click]

oh dear lord

its for TDR? i thought it was for C2

[Tony]

Can't do C2 stuff, someone else need to convert it, if you C2 guys wanna drive it in that game. Sorry.

[Grind and Click]

Its actually ok, i can live with that, there isnt enough "Fan requested" made cars anyway

this is quite a treat

should happen more often
