Hi. My name is Uwe Schmidt and I live in Hannover, Germany. I was born 1965. Since I got twelve I work with computers, it was a hobby and is my job now. I still know how it started here, with Sinclair, Commodore, Apple and Tandy - ages ago. Now we have the Internet and true color graphics - it's unbelievable to see how fast all evolved.
I started Poser in the good old days, when a new Figure named Victoria was about to be released from Zygote and Poser 4 was new Software. I planned to use Poser for a web comic then - well I still plan that, even if many years have passed, I have learned a lot but still not found the time.
I started modeling some years ago, the picture above and in my avatar was the first scene I did completely on my own. It's done in Cinema 6 CE+, everything modeled and textured by myself, it was made to fit the "minimalism" theme of a 2005 round in the now defunct IRTC.ORG. Although it is far from perfect, I still like it very much.
At the moment (early 2008) I still dabble in modeling, although making progress slowly. I use Silo and Cinema for modeling, Poser for content and posing, FireFly, Vue and POVRay for rendering. I still have a lot of unfinished projects here, but I surely am not alone with that.
As you can probably guess from above picture I like to play Go, the asian board game. I started to play it regulary in our local club and try to improve here too. I play as an european 5 kyu at the moment. The board situation on the board above is not one I played - it's taken from one of the rare cases when professional Go players use the 9*9-Board. (usually it's 19*19, for those who don't know the game)
Thank you for having a look here.

Over all this is one of the Cooler Custom designed cars that I have seen yet. I personally like the cars that people make, that don't look anything like whats on the road today. You've all the lines right in my opinion it's very smooth and except for the front window looks like it would be Aerodynamic. I LOVE the rims, those are awsome! Wish I could get a set of those for a real vehicle heh. The only part that confuses me are the glass elements. Will those be smooth when the image is finished? or will they retain that wire frame Cage look? All in all though, this is a really cool car looks like a concept straight outta the Detroit Auto Show. oh yeah and one last comment: Go for suicide doors! heh Good luck I am looking forward to seeing this one when it gets finished.

From my point of view this car is fantastic, and you have done a great work here!!

I think this model is looking very impressive. Keep at it and this car could show up on a dealerships floor...Shannon ;}

nice work!

I think I would bring the top of the roof foreward and make it a bit more rounded, rather than square - think about the old Corvette Stingray hard top roof. Some more roundness on the headlight glass would probably be good too.
SoCalRoberta
The overall lines are very graceful. Your work is fantastic.

Peculiar mix of new and classic car elements. Interesting design!
drifterlee
WOW! Fantastic. It looks like it's smiling.

Very original, specially the glass. Door has no handles, I suppose it's because it's a wip. There's a strange dented shape near the rear wheel. Looking forward to see the finished product!

Nice bit of modeling there. No crits here. Keep on as you're doing, but don't forget the door handles as Rutra mentioned. :)

I thought of mind reading doors. :-) Just kidding. Thank you for the comments, everyone. Yes the doors will get handles. The windscreen will loose that "caged" look. I was going for normal doors, but I will give that suicide doors a try, Sydney. Since there are no interiors yet your tour with the car has to wait, DPH. But when it is ready, you will be able to use it as you see fit.

Excelent render, great job.
DapperMan
interesting. it's like a melding of economy car (the top half) and sports car. a unique design. good job for an early work.
