Rally fighter

Project overview:

Development time: approximately 60 hrs.
Texture size: 2048*2048
Poly count: 9936
Triangle count: 19336

Description:

​​This is a hybrid model I made in my art creation class.
The model requires both hard surface and organic modelling skills and it was a lot of challenge for me. The car's body is made using spline modelling.

POST-MORTEMS:

What went well
  • The UV layout is well packed and organized, making it's easier to bake and texture.
  • The materials turn out quite well.
  • The cavity map plays a great role in this. It improves the depth and makes the object looks more realistic.

What went wrong
  • Even with the normal bake, some part of the car still looks low-res.
  • Because some part doesn't have enough topology, the normal didn't turn out perfect. There's still some waviness in the edging detail part.

What I learned
  • Even though the model has to be optimized for the game, it still needs enough topology to make a good normal bake.
  • A clean UV layout makes the baking and texturing process easier and faster.
  • The cavity map works very well with the hard surface object.
