Default 3D Modeling my IS350

Hey everyone, been a while since I've been active on the forums, been busy with school, I go to school for Computer Animation, and this month we are doing cars, I decided to do my IS350, it currently needs alot more work to be done to it, its no where near done, but just to give you guys a general idea, let me know what you guys think so far...

The finished product should come out good.

hey, if you need any help let me know!!..i've been modeling for quite awhile, its what i do for a living too. cars are a b*tch to model, it can get tricky along certain curves. feel free to pm me if you have any questions.

Awesome bro! can't wait to see the finished product I also do 3D models for work, but for Architecture. I've been wanting to build my car for a while, but man, it's pretty challenging. Especially since my backround isn't in animation

What program do you use?

Thats pretty cool, I never really thought about how tedious 3D modeling was. Interested to see how it turns out!

I use autodesk maya for the program... And can definitely send an obj if I decide not to sell the model, but definitely working on making it look exact, from every aspect, very.time consuming and hard for me since I work fulltime and have class 3 to 4 days a week.... 3 to 4 hours of sleep a day.... I will finish it by next week!
