    So I've been working on this for a few days on and off. But this is where I have gotten. I'm not really sure my blueprint is spot on but I do think that it will suffice. I've made many mods, just never a full model of my own. So i'm trying it. hopefully i can get it somewhere and it doesn't turn out badly.

    2009-11 Mini Cooper made by Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (BMW)

    And the parts where done-ish, but i took them away and slowly put them together for screenshots. (notice time on bottom)

    I'm juggling school, work and this. So like 2-3 hours a day will be the time I spend on it (between classes) on my laptop. So far I have the lights and hood accents and I'm working on the doors. Will update soon. My next step after the doors are the rear quarter panels. And the minor body stuff.

    Not a fan of the new Mini's, but wouldn't mind ragging one round they are still fun little cars!

    Hope you can get the model done, and then get it in game soon!

    Soon enough my friend. The model will be easier than the Jbeam I do believe. I am not that good with numbers. But I'll try to complete it quickly. I've been somewhat practicing Jbeam. Movin stuf around on other cars. But a complete model. I'll figure it out! I will.

    Another! This thing's turning out pretty great. Although I have no idea what the bottom of this thing looks like...

    Here you go; this should be about all the underside reference you need :D



    Skip to 1:08. At 1:35 you get a really good look.

    Remember the power of textures and normal maps - don't get carried away modeling too much detail.

    You're right, I hope I dog have too much detail. I don't think I do because I'm not the best. But I'm learning more every day. Soooooo. Yeah. And thanks so much for the video! Perfect example.

    Gabe pretty much covered the underside. And the internet is endless pictures of all the others I need. Maybe a good interior pic of center console? Remember though, I am making a RHD version. Since that is how I believe a mini should be. Coming from the roots I guess (;

    Actually it's finished. All of my old projects are. And work great. And I've made more. But I'm not posting anymore of them because the lack of motivation everyone give me. I used to try to make them for everyone else. But it wasn't working. So I make them for me. And no one else. Hate to make it sound rude.
