chazcron's 3D model work in progress
#602
I wish the whole video could look like this. Maybe in the next modeler. I also wish I knew what the engine compartment looks like.

Maybe the engine will not be exposed to view and have a retractable roof like the new McLaren 720S Spider

Possible for the C8 Spyder version ?

Both of those videos are cool, are there any hints from the CAD drawings?
Previously we saw some shocks near the rear tailight we thought were for active aero. Maybe they're for the top?

I bit the bullet and subscribed to my old Animation:Master 3D modeling program. I've started the arduous task of rotoscoping my splines over the spy shots. I'm going with my gut on the scoop shape. It may be way off, but I like it. Be prepared, when I render with my own modeled wheels, I'll be using the ones I made for the '15 Mustang for now.
Here is overlaid with an image, first with the wireframe, then without.

I like your scoop better than what's indicated on the mule. This could mean that, heaven forbid, an amateur can design a car better than GM!

Or... it could mean the lower "jaw" on the GM scoop is needed to make the scoop ingest enough air for cooling targets. Function over form. They can gussy it up with contrasting trim to give it a more rounded appearance if they so desire.

Yep, many possible explanations.

I wish someone would create a view that used this front end. The radiators are in front of the front tires, and it doesn't need a centered "grill". Besides we need someplace to put the license plate. I like this look.
#615
fvs did some good renders with that piece, though.
#616
Just refuse to mount the front plate, if they complain stick it on with tape and then take it down.

Looks like Mclaren got their newest edition right.
Time will tell for Chevrolet.

Looking great,keep sculpting and chiseling away...
great job,I’d be very pleased if the rear would look like that.
I believe it does have some C7 elements in its design.
Maybe try doing the front view from the inverted angle ,and roughly the same distance.(I’m sure it’s not easy...try to imagine every visual trick to make the snout appear longer)
Stepnose perhaps?

this top view is spectacular... if the side view is just as good.... how can they possibly sell this for less than 150k... im just asking... like a market comp if you were buying a warehouse or building, house etc.. near this ... how do you sell it for less that that?
