looking great there, one thing is missing from th old DMC tho ... the side rear windows.

You are right, I'll add those to the design.

Preliminary sketches are finished, and now the 3D construction should begin.

I drew a few variations of the Delorean car, making it look more curvy or sporty. I even attempted to redesign the DMC logo, but I felt I should keep it the same.

Again, I'm definitely looking forward to seeing this develop. The DMC-12 is my absolute favorite car, thanks in great part to the Back to the Future movies. And I'm glad you kept the DMC logo as is.

Car schematics are done.

Sweet ! especiallyy love the front

Shadowknight1 · « **Reply #26 on:** February 05, 2012, 07:05:19 PM »

Dude! You should send that to the current DeLorean Motor Company. That would be an awesome update to the design.

WileyCoyote · « **Reply #27 on:** February 05, 2012, 07:18:12 PM »

Thanks guys!

Shadowknight1 · « **Reply #28 on:** February 06, 2012, 03:59:58 AM »

Probably a silly question, but when you get to textures for the model, are you going to be going with a more modern "plastic" painted silver finish or the stainless steel finish?

Bones · « **Reply #29 on:** February 06, 2012, 07:57:54 AM »

stainless steel FTW ! one of the coolest things in DMC-12

WileyCoyote · « **Reply #30 on:** February 06, 2012, 11:50:00 AM »

I'll attempt to recreate the stainless steel finish.

Shadowknight1 · « **Reply #31 on:** February 08, 2012, 09:16:45 PM »

Well Wiley, look at it this way. It'll be easier to get the right reflections in an actual render, unlike trying to use a game engine.

That's beautiful man. Something like that might just make Doc Brown come out of retirement!

WileyCoyote · « **Reply #33 on:** February 13, 2012, 11:12:58 PM »

The exterior of the car is mostly done. I still have to add the door handles/key holes, windshield wipers, and tail exhaust. The headlight and tail light details will be added later when I start texturing and they will be clear. Enjoy.

Niiiiiiiice. Geez, now I'm gonna want this as a small toy.

FarShot · « **Reply #35 on:** February 14, 2012, 12:07:04 AM »

That's pretty awesome, Wiley. It's got every single curve that a De Lorean should have and then some.

I'm not sure if you're going to revise anything at this point, but if so, there's only one thing I'd recommend you touch up a bit more. That would be the spokes on the wheel. They don't look much different from the old version. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but perhaps you could throw the modernization on to that as well.

Lionus · « **Reply #36 on:** February 14, 2012, 05:09:49 AM »

And knowing American regulations, it will need side repeaters too.. But that can be added afterwards. Keep the wheels as they are, they'd be pain in the ass to clean, but for pete's sake, give it 5 lugnut config to give it some more range regarding aftermarket wheels. Nobody uses 4xXXX pattern anymore..

King Class Scout · « **Reply #37 on:** February 14, 2012, 08:05:46 AM »

Li. they're not "repeaters"...they're always lit (and occasionally, don't even blink) and, yes, there are still 4 luggers around...on the Korean cars.

thing is, what's a modern car doing with keyholes in this day and age?

Lionus · « **Reply #38 on:** February 14, 2012, 08:27:57 AM »

Keyholes exist because the keyfob batteries don't last forever and you need a method for opening the locks when it gives up the ghost. Also, occasionally keyfobs glitch and lose the code or frequency of that said car in which case remote features wouldn't work.

Permission to feel yourself silly granted. ;)
