I dont know if there already is a thread like this so remove if it's in the way

Thread about 3D modeling basically


These are some of my shitty creations

There is one for 3d animation/renders. there is some models in there. but I don't think there is a 3d modeling thread http://forum.mxsimulator.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=8639

Not bad at all. Did you follow a guide or freehand it?

I free handed the whole thing, its part of my college work so i had to 3D model it from scratch.

Redid some things, looks better now

When you are 3d modeling its best to try to make the model into separate pieces like they would be in real life. For example, the outlet of the cold side of the turbo has a bad seam where it transitions from the round section to the straight section. Also, the round portion should actually be more of a scroll shape that starts from the center and moves outward as it curves around. Reference images are your friend. Same issues with the hot side.

Everything is separated as it would irl. The rough transition from the turbo housing to the intercooler piping is a little annoying but i'll be ao baking it and exporting ti to a game, with some trickery i think i can make it dissapear

No it isn't that would be one piece.



Do what you want, just trying to give you some constructive feedback.

Yeah that's one peice like in the picture, I made the pipe out of the turbo as a separate mesh but joined them together.

When I say single piece I mean one mesh.

Oh i get it. I dont know how that would work tho, im not that experienced, i basically only make stuff my extruding, scaling, using the array tool screw tool boolean tool and edge split tool.

Made a quick 5ton axle and a long travel shock for a mud truck project
