Ok, the Trendsetter is on hold, but this type of vehicle is noticibly absent in beam NG! It's also a little simpler to make than my other designs, and I don't have to be such a stickler on form and right now I'm just having fun with it! I've got some normals issues, but that's easily fixed. It's an original "Cute ute", basically it's a car based SUV. Up front, it might be a little too Toyota RAV4, but it's basically a Front-wheel-drive tall car with a 4cyl engine. So power will come from a kind-of-underpowered 2.0L 4cyl with about 130HP. It goes to the front wheels thru a 4-speed auto, or a 5-speed manual. There's a option for a front-biased AWD system.
looks sweet! reminds me of a 90s honda crv suv could go with the spare tire on the back and maybe fill in the trim fully?
Like 3 posts in as many minutes. My Canadian mind is not used to seeing so many people in one spot. Help
Erm...the CRV you posted is actually the second-gen model, which is launched in 2002. This is a real 90's CRV:
I think there should also be stronger, maybe a v6, engine. As this is probably aimed at the american market.
Make a few engines, like an Ibishu V6, or a small turbo. Spare tire would complete the look. Finally, a compact crossover!
Must say this does look like a great mod! It's nice to actually see a refreshingly simple mod. So many people try to make the best of the best and complicated things, but I personally love the basic things in life. Keep it up!
Thanks guys! It's got a long way to go, but this should be simpler to get up and running. The fenders, bumpers and frame are modeled but it still needs better head and tail lamp models, as well as obviously an interior and textures. And it'll be 4CYL only. 4cyl and 4-speed auto, or 5-speed manual.
