Cuda Build


#3DCudaBuild #pokerface #3dmodels #plymouth

This is my latest build, a model loosely based on the 68-69 Barracuda. I got interested because I was watching the first season of #pokerface with Amber and Natasha Lyon drives a similar car in the show, so I got to work.

I assumed, incorrectly that the upcoming Dusters and Demons (70 - 73) were based on the Barracuda platform. No. The early Cudas/Barracudas were built on the Plymouth Valiant platform. The Later Cuda's and Challengers were built on the E body platform, specifically built by Chrysler for the job. The Dusters. Darts and Demons were built on Chrysler A body Platform. Still, there are some styling cues between the early Barracudas and the Duster/Demons of the early seventies.

OGRE RAD


A project I have been working on for over a year, to be able to use Direct X and the OGRE engine together. So far, I have modified the RAD Sandbox wrapper to allow me to load and use the OGRE engine along with the direct X engine-. It has been a headache, especially since I am doing the work with code only for OGRE and the code I myself made to work with Rad Sandbox. No models yet except the one shown (A landscape), and no ability to add models or modules yet, but I have managed to load a 15 MG mesh to test it and use the Sandbox interface to run it. The camera is not complete, neither is much else but I am working on it, Dell. #OGRE #MESH #DirectX #Rad #renderstudio #dellsweet #3dmodels Video: https://youtu.be/bGSBotyTc6w

Panel Truck Build


This is loosely based on the 1960s era panel trucks. I found these trucks cool. My father owned one and I loved to ride in it. This model is complete as shown with Image Maps and UV work done. It comes in the Direct X format and is compressed with all maps converted to DDS as well. This is a low poly model, and it is game ready with no animations. I built this a few years back and then abandoned it as I had other things going on: https://pcgeos.com/product/1960s-panel-truck/ #Pcgeos #dellsweet #gameready #directx #3dmodels #openfxmodeler Video Link: https://youtu.be/1bTei9_91-E

2006 GTO


This is the Holden style of GTO. I built this because I really like the construction of these two door V8 powered cars, The Chevy Caprice Police Car is basically the same car stretched slightly. You can get it at my 3D model store in Direct X only with all UV work and maps. Video Link: https://youtu.be/w6h7iO1fHj8 Store Link: https://pcgeos.com/product/gto-2006/

Scout Prototype 04


So, it's been a while since I had time to work on this. I have scraped it a few times because I just couldn't get a clear idea of what I wanted. I finally downloaded some pix of older scouts, back when IH was prominent. I went with that look with some changes. The body is tapered somewhat, not a lot, The nose is rounded, but really only a nod at aero dynamics, after all this is not the electric one proposed but a V8 made for trails and off-road and also for retro freaks. The extensions are what I finally decided on in place of the body panels I built at first. I got sick of the look before it grew on me, so I went with retro styled fender flare/extensions, and I really moved the driveline outboard by stretching it about 10 inches and widening it about six. The body is about the same length and height, but it is about eight inches wider. Without a height increase and the widened track it should do well off-road. I have some work to do on the front and I am undecided on the grill, a nod toward VW or the old scout? And of course, UV work. I have done most of the welding already and so it looks good for a lo-poly model. Next time it should be rendered and in the new Render Studio I have also been working on. Hope all is well, Dell. #dellsweet #3dmodels #radsandbox #RenderStudio #3dgamebuilds #ScoutPrototype #ultimateunwrap https://youtu.be/OaaJVh-xv1c
