Redesigned MX-3 Prototype 3D model
As some of you may or may not know, besides being an MX-3 enthusiasts, I'm also a budding 3D Animator/modeller, which means that a frequent the bulletin board at www.cgtalk.com as well. I was searching through some of the posts yesterday and came across a 3D model of a Mazda that resembled the MX-3 a bit and even had the name of MX-3. It turns out the guy who modelled it based it off the original mx-3, lives in germany and owns an MX-3 himself, and knows about this site. I thought I would post a link to the model on here for anyone who's intersted.

Re: Redesigned MX-3 Prototype 3D model
I like how the car looks (specially the tannish one), but I don't see too many elements from the mx3 in it. Maybe it's just me.
If Mazda rolled out with it on the lots, I'd be all over it!

Re: Redesigned MX-3 Prototype 3D model
Awesome Job for You Sam... Cant wait to see it finished!
Mike-- I appreciate your skillz-- but I dont think that is an MX-3. That looks like a BAD mix of an S2000, a Peugeot, a POntiac Bonneville, and an Acura TSX.
My guess is that you were designing an Acura Roadster (S2000 equivalent) and decided to slap a top on it.
It really looks like an after thought. Not very MX-3ish at all. I really dont see ANY Mazda in that at all. The grill is more Acura than Mazda.
If you had said that is was an Acura Roadster or something I would agree-- but dont call it a Mazda and especially not an MX-3.
Sorry man-- just my opinion. Nice rendering and artwork though. You definately have some talent.

Re: Redesigned MX-3 Prototype 3D model
well.. heres what i see the mix as:
body of an MX5, hatch of an MX3, and the headlights of a Mazda 6. then somehow fit together to look kinda like an acura.
lol but damn its sick lookin! drool drool i like the detail and the rims and everything.. but yea it doesnt look much like something mazda would make.

Re: Redesigned MX-3 Prototype 3D model
*comment: doesn't look like a mx-3 but its amazing, I love it. The only think im not crazy about is the front is a bit tooo wide for my taste. But it looks real! Im blown away!
How do they do this????
Is it a hbby or a career. How difficult is it to lear to do this andhow long does it take to create a project like this?

Re: Redesigned MX-3 Prototype 3D model
Well, right now it's a hobby, but I want to turn it into a career. I started probably when I was like 13-14 (I'm now 20)....I pretty much just bought some books, got a cheap 3D package (Truespace) and started messing around. Browse around [url=http://www.cgtalk.com,]www.cgtalk.com,[/url] you'll find a lot of inspiration there, as well as help and tutorials on how to create things with different software packages.Originally posted by Sash:
