Model : Car Modeling = Overview
There was a time when my main interest was modeling cars just for the fun of it. I would then experiment with the cars like redesign their bumpers or creating a coupe version of a saloon. All the models were then ported to RenderWare for me to visualize them interactively in 3D or converted to SGI format for fine-tuning the models. However, most car models are very huge in size and some have interior as well. (The Sports Car in previous page has interior). My task here is to reduce the polygon count so the models are less than 50k in size for the Internet.
Model : Car Modeling = VW Concept Car
This car catches my eyes immediately as I opened a car magazine. The VolksWagen Concept Car is the perfect upgrade to its World War 2 design cousin 'The Beetle'. I want to experiment more on the car maybe a beetle-like small coupe using existing VW design flair.

CLICK HERE! for a VRML 1.0 preview of the VW Concept Car. It is still under development and may not be as accurately represented here as the pictures above. Refinement is underway. The preview model is 34kb in size. (VRML Browsers tested were Live3D, VRWeb, WorldView, CosmoPlayer Win95 and CosmoPlayer SGI - Only CosmoPlayer Win95 rendered the model and instancing correctly, the others rendered the instancing model as a negative lighting)
