Renault WIP3
Update – Honda Wheel
Renault WIP
Paulo provided me with some first WIP-shots of the Renault. He is currently painting the car and sorting out mapping flaws. During the next days he will continue his work, so the car will soon be ready. Later Raül will take the texture and create all trackspecific liveries. In the meantime Andy is already getting the car ingame, preparing all shaders and all upgrades.
Get it over with
At the moment I am in involved in one of the most boring processes of carpainting. I get all cars, have to touch up all texture-sources, add missing things, check for mistakes, make missing track-liveries and finally saving them all to dds.. Some cars like Toyota or Sauber actually drove with the same livery all the year, others modified them very frequently like Toro Rosso which requires several liveries up to 7-8. So far Toro Rosso, Toyota and Ferrari were done, during the last days I finished BMW-Sauber painted by Paulo, Williams painted by Steffen and McLaren painted by myself. Next coming up will be Honda. No screenshots today. 🙂
Working …
Well not much to show, we are working on the upgrades, finished the first teams for good, for example Toro, Ferrari and Midland. I finished all 8 Toro Rosso Liveries and hope to never see this car again. Andy is composing all upgrades for the car. We are also trying which we actually can use and so far our tests are promising to bring you a big variety.
We post more, when we have more to show to you.
Helmets
I have now finished all the helmets i am doing for CTDP06 and would like to get feedback on them.
Kimi Raikkonen Monaco Spec:
Franck Montagny
Jensen Button – Preseason & England Spec
Sakon Yamamoto
Please Note: Renders were done with gp4 model so some mapping and model errors may occur. (IE JB & FM helmet on arai)
Sort of first McLaren screens
Ok, the McLaren textures are done and they ended up just great. I’m damn proud of them. This one and Toro Rosso I think are my finest works and real icing on the big 2006-mod-cake. I hope you think the same when you see it in person.
Here are the first two screenshots, they are on the homepage as well.
Please don’t ask for more, if you do I may not want to post anymore. 🙂 :p
Steering wheel time
The work on steering wheels started. First we sorted out, which could be simply updated from 2005 and which had to be done new. Well most of them. Ferrari was one of the few who just got some small updates, implemented by Kizz.
Nearly done is the Williams-wheel by Matthew. Last but not least, after finishing Williams Matthew started the Spyker-Wheel. Both are done from scratch as you can see.
McWilliams
Work on McLaren also comes to an end. Here you can see the final McLaren-model in rFactor. It’s just missing something … hm ah yeah the texture. Well, this will be shown some other time. 🙂
Actually we just wanted to test the modell and used a provisional texture. The final texture will be done within the next 2 days.
