Custom Rat Rod

My lastest modeling project is the Custom Rat Rod that I just recently completed.   This is again loosely based off of the '29 Chevy.   Modified the main body from the "Delivery Panel Truck to "Chop & Channel the body.   Modeled a new set of Rims, Chassis Front Clip, Suspension, Grill, Lights, Radiator, & Exhaust Headers to complete the Rod.  

Modeled a full 3D environment for the Final Renders on this one.  Plants were downloaded from various free model sites around the internet.

BoLink Eliminator Remote Control

This model was built for a Contest on one of the 3D Modeling sites that I frequent.  The contest actually fell through as there were not enough participants.  This is a 3D representation of my BoLink Eliminator Remote Control Asphalt car.  I modeled all of the individual chassis parts using my actual car as a reference.  The body is modeled based on the "Wedge" Late Model design.    Even though the contest was a bust, this was fun to model and worked as a further learning experience.

Custom 1929 Chevrolet Delivery

This model followed the '29 Pickup.  It is another full custom loosely based off of the Cab of a 1929 Chevrolet Pickup.  I utilized the Cab and stretched it into the resemblance of a Delivery Panel Van.
Modeled the "Environment" in full 3D.   Renders are done with 3ds Studio Max 2009 w/ Mental Ray Render Engine - Daylight System.


Custom 1929 Chevrolet Pickup

This is one of my earliest scratch built models.  It is a full custom loosely based off of the Cab of a 1929 Chevrolet Pickup.  All other parts of the truck are custom and are  not authentic replicas of any exiting car part.   Renders are done with 3ds Studio Max 8 w/ VRay Render Engine - Studio Setup.
