It’s been a while since I have had time to play with 3D modeling. I have had a chance to do some designing in Alibre Design. I will post some pictures soon of some models I have created and printed.
Once the snow flies I will have more time

If you don’t have Octane Render yet you can pick it up for 49.00 for the next week. They are having a half price sale.
If you don’t want to purchase it you could download it and create an image for the new contest that started on the 29th of May. It will last for one month and they have excellent prizes from Octane licences to Nvidia GTX480 video cards.
The contest has two categories still images and animations. With the demo version it would be hard to do the animations as you can’t save your images.
Here is one image I will be submitting to the contest.

I don’t know if people have seen this awesome software bundle that Daz 3D is offering, but for $199 you get the following:
You have to be a Platinum member to receive this deal, but that will only cost you $29.95 and you can cancel after 30 days if you don’t want to continue the membership. If you cancel you still have valid licences for all the software you have purchased. You can’t go wrong with a deal like this.
They have extended this deal to May 30 so if you are looking for a great deal get it know.

This tutorial was done in 3DS Max but can easily be done with other 3D programs like Hexagon, Silo and Blender which are capable of doing box modeling. I think it is one of the most detailed car modeling tutorials I have come across in a long time.
