I thought I'd post my bike project. Like many of my projects, I've built a well scaled primitive model to build the final parts onto.

And the final day (8). Things have been real busy so I only had about two hours a day to beat on this thing. -Kix

Oh yeah, one other thing, this was my first application of anything grooves (tire treads). -Kix

Dude, you're supposed to rest on the 7th day. ;-) Nice bike! I'd like to see a different background color on the final render- the gray is eating some of the nice details. (quick release lever on front wheel, front brake cable) Also, there looks to be something quirky on the rear reflector- should that much of it show? Markd

That's a really great bike!

Sweet. How about an HDRI render to really make it pop?

Excellent model, I like how you have shown the progression from start to finish. Very Nice! Paul

The rear reflector is showing through the fender more than it should. I agree that a better render is warrented. I'm still not decided on the color. Thanks for all the comments! -Kix

One Question, how did you do the spokes? Did you create a single spoke and then duplicate it and position them? Or is there like a secret way of doing it easier and more exact? Thanks, Paul

Beautiful! Thanks for the image building progress

A tutorial would be great. Those spokes and tires are done very well. Is the bike modeled in Carrara or Amapi?
