How do you like?

Looks nicely made as low polygons model. How many polygons? Show also a wireframe of it.

It has 876 faces and 475 vertices.

Looks nice

Looks awesome, now you only need to fix the normals.

I like the mud-guards of this car. Good work.

Thanks, everybody.

@e-cobra, how to do that?

Two ways: First: To select all vertices of the body and simply Surface > Normals > Calculate. But I think you've done so already and doing this does not remove all the 'dark' areas and bad shading.

Second: Suppose the dark patch on the hood is not getting fixed by calculating normals as usual. So to make it look better, you select the faces that make up the hood and make the hood a separate object. Now go to vertices mode of this object (hood) and calculate normals.
Maybe consider looking in this topic for ideas. Although its for Zmodeler2, but concept is same.

Yes, I've done the first one. I'll get started on the second, now. Thanks.

I fixed the normals!



Is it supposed to look like that? I didn't do it on the fenders and side skirts because it actually made it look darker. IMO think its fine because it will look better with the textures.

Detach under the wheel arches(the insides of them), detach the bottom, detach the roof(whole roof, windows and all) from the body, and detach the front bumper part that's extending outwards from the hood.

Looks good, but can be well done more with the normals calculating on detached parts. Next time show the wireframe, to effectively see how you've modelled it.

Lol sorry I keep forgetting about that.

Here it is...


I didn't do any work, just showing the wireframe.

Looking at the wireframe, the polygons placement is ok for most of it. The side part polygons need to me moved to uniformly distribute them following the shape. Good work, anyway.

Look nice! You should try to make the sloping polygons in the box straight so as they fit the body shape better and detach the polygons in red and calculate their normals and then unite them to the body object again.
