Omni

Was there work done on the Omni? well really no, decided the other night to record some video. just for the heck of it. the sounds that the Omni uses comes from a car I released to Racer earlier my Dodge Caravan (pictured below with the Tradesman). The gauges aren't exactly matching one is for the Dodge Caravan model(the black tach on the bottom right hand side of the screen) the other is the Omni speedo (bottom left hand side of the screen).


(talk about a size difference)

Anyways heres the link to the video (subscribe and comment would be nice)

The Omni....

Has had more work done to it, rebuild the front grill, Now I think it looks much better, the GLH-S also got the same treatement.

Omni and Mini...

My two smallest cars that I'm working on right now, have had some minor work done on them...

The Mini, I had modeled its grill, and now its fitted into its area, purposely is a little small though, as there will be a piece that goes around the edge, probably will end up having it body colored.



The Omni, got badging, up front it got the Pentastar, and Dodge, and in the back it got the Dodge and Omni badges. need to put the 3rd brakelight back still though.

Mini, oh Mini....

Where art Thou Thy Mini....

Ok thats enough Shakespeare for me lol. I have done something to the Mini (Morris? Austin? either or) built up the grill, its a bunch of glorified boxes, that was still a pain to do, mainly the first row was a pain to get everything right. Also tweaked with the windshield frame a bit, still needs a little more tweaking though. Still plenty left to do on the little thing, it seems such a small car, that is such a big undertaking really.

Omni GLH-S, small update

Did just a little bit of work on the GLH-S (Omni) the other day, just forgot to post, haven't really worked on it today, because, 1. I was testing out my old graphics card to see if it had driver issues or hardware, sadly, hardware, and also it seems my back is in quite a lot of pain today, I suspect its from when I replaced the starter in a friend's car, how i did it idk, much like the cut that across 3 out of 4 fingers on my right hand, all in a direct line, cut my fore finger middle finger and pinky, missed the middle finger somehow lol.

Anyways the GLH-S has been fitted with the Pizza wheels (I had modeled and put a basic texture on them earlier) and slightly redid the headlights on the GLH-S to appear more roundish at the edges.

Some Fun

Well I had put a Fairmont Wagon into Racer not too long ago, and quickly learned a bit of CG on it, like doing pearlescent paint jobs on it, then I thought I'd explore a funner side of what I can do, and decided to cut the car right behind the driver's door and make something like the Half Car from Davidsfarm (on youtube), but his is a Pontiac 6000. and this is clearly NOT lol. utlizing a wheel from my Omni, and front wheels from my Aspen. But alas I have created something fun, and to go along with the two redneck rollercoaster cars (that were also from Davidsfarm). Now I need to make a half master lol.


And also I have worked on the GLH-S "summore" and added the necessary body kit so its one step closer to looking like a GLH-S, only problem is I'm missing my Centurion wheels still, might put the pizza wheels on for now just for something other than what is on there right now.

Some Updates

Well haven't really posted here, just been kind of busy around the house recently, sister (and her husband and of course my niece) came up for the weekend, then not too long after waking up saturday I got a call from my friend who was stuck at McD's because his car wouldn't start, so I had to go get it going again (its a Ford so what do you expect? lol). Then I just didn't have this blog on my mind at all, whoops, oh well so heres a smal update on whats going on with the cars
Well first of all, the GLH-S has come back, 2.2l turbo burble and almost all, suspension isn't quite right yet (working on it) and the wheels aren't back on yet (again working on it).

Now I also kind of playing this game (I guess thats what it is) for Racer, called Racecity, and well, I thought of an idea I shouldn't of thought of and made it real lol. Now what is it? Well it started out as a Ford Econoline Cargo van, and now, its just a race van, with a 351W, 5 speed manual transmission, posi rear end, widened track, a whole list of things really. But it is incredibly quick, for a van and not having THAT much power to it. It goes around the Nurburgring at just over 8 mins. I will admit, its not the prettiest thing ever, but funtionally its awesome.
