Work in Progress for the classic 1966 Batmobile 3D Model (Click for massive size)

Work in Progress, showing progress since first render was made... (Click for massive size)

Ah… the sweet freedom of unemployment.  The euphoria of having free time lasts a few days, and in that time, I’m gonna enjoy it, darn it.  So here’s a couple views of my 3D Batmobile rendered in the astounding Modo.  I’ve pretty much converted all my work into the Modo realm now, as it has gotten some decent animation tools in the recent 401 update… I really enjoy it’s modeling tools, and the rendering engine is top notch.

So here is a couple renderings of my favorite car… the classic 1966 Batmobile.  Am in the process of whittling down the mesh and simplifying it so that it renders cleanly and accurately.  I started with a not too terrible 3D mesh from online years ago… and have basically rebuilt the whole thing on top of it… accurizing it and detailing it until one day, (hopefully within not too long a time) I will be able to pump out pictures that will be indistinguishable from a real photo of the sweet ride.

I’ll keep posting updates as I get them done.  Until then… Atomic Batteries to Power, and turbines to speed!

Another note that I just realized is that this is the 100th post I’ve put up on this site since I started the blog at around this time last year.  Time sure flies!

BONUS:

Did two more renderings this afternoon… enjoy!
