So…

That reminded me that I have something to show you. Even though I maintain that I am a horrible modeler with models unfit for use in animation or games, I'm practicing.

Recently, I figured out how to use projection painting to make texturing of complex models a breeze. Assuming you happened to have the right images to work with.

Anyway, yesterday I modeled a generic car. I call it the Megamobile.

Tip: Don't try draw the textures after you've created the model. Draw several reference images first, then the textures in the correct orthographic perspectives, then make the model using these images as references.

Still, it was far better than my last attempt at a car:

So, since my textures sucked, I decided to look for some stock images of a Ferrari F12, and:

Textures and stuff all warped on the sides, because my generic car model isn't shaped in the exact same way (And has no wheels, just wheel wells), but it's an interesting result; if I spent a bit of time on a model and a set of textures to go with it, I can easily envisage using more 3D assets in my games.

On that note, I've decided to have an art week as soon as I've finished hammering away at that A* implementation in Unity. I haven't composed a new complete track in ages, even though I've got ideas for tracks buzzing around the insides of my mind all day.
