Had a chance to watch the 5th Element again last night and I have sort of got inspired to do some art based on it.

I know many years ago when I first joined here (back in the dark days of Poser 3) I saw a model of the taxi Bruce Willis drives in the movie - can anyone else remember seeing this model - i know I downloaded it - but can't find it in my archives anywhere.

So if anyone has seen it about - speak up...

In the meantime I will attempt a dynamic version of Leeloo's  "Bandage" outfit..... unless there is one already floating around (I know i have one based on the catsuit)

5th Element is a great movie - very entertaining Sci-Fi 'comedy'.

If you find the taxi, post a link please.  If I find it, I'll post a link. :)

A Leeloo morph for V3 or SP3 would be cool as well. ;P

BVH has an outfit inspired by the bandage outfit over at PlanetVixxens.

DAZ has a skycar in the PC that could be textured to look like a taxi.

I think the hole in the roof would be great :b_funny:

Nothing like being accurate in one's Fan Art :woot:

Will do - I did one with Posette a long time ago - but we just didn't have the range of morphs back then - i think SP3 with NBM-Easy-Mags would make a good base and the hair colour should be easier now with dynamic hair.

The issue back when I tried before was actually getting her breasts and the outfit flat as they are in the movie.

As you can see from the image.

On a side note - i wouldn't mind one of those metal aliens from the Temple at the start of the movie either!

The Skyrider at DAZ is cool but it just doesn't have that "old car" feel or look to it that the taxi in the 5th Element has. I've found some models of the taxi for the NFS game. I'd love to find a model of the taxi that could be used in Poser (and to police cars too).

Gorodin has a texture for the V3 catsuit over at DAZ,  similar to the female character above! :)

I take it back..the shapes' a bit more complicated than I thought..me and my big mouth..;)

I double-take it back. Found the reference pics..this thing is a lot more complicated (not to mention dented) than I thought. I gave it a shot, but it just wouldn't come together. Complex curves has always been my failing as a modeler..;) Did learn some new techniques though..

Thanks for trying, that's more than I could do. I couldn't even model my way out of a paper bag...LOL.

Maybe someone else will see this thread and make the taxi for us. I know there are several people that would like to have a model of it.
