And the little dog that followed?

Looks good so far, A scene like this could offer some cool possibility's, interesting indeed!

Do you know where your going with it yet?

The first thing that popped into my head was time travel.

Hehe... That's great... Glad I can bring out the imagination of other. The under carriage is slowing me down a bit. All of the reference material I have found doesn't really show a lot of the underside. I know most of this stuff won't show up in the seen, but I'm just a stickler for detail. Really sucks sometimes.

Maybe when altopais builds his time machine you can use it to go back to the old west and take photos of the undercarriage.

I like the start. Good modelling and solid shapes. Really like to see how this comes along!

---

Looking forward to see how this one develops. I'm quite obsessed (as always) with the artist Moebius and his famous "blueberry" comic comes to mind.

I found a couple of reference pics that I hope will help.
Images 1 and 2: Seems that covered wagons don't really have much of a spingy suspension, they look like they would be bone jarring.
Image 3: The Buckboard type wagons have a very spingy looking suspension.
Images 2 and 4: Something else I noticed, most of them have a positive wheel chamber.

That first image is cool.. That pretty much the way I went with. Thanks Chris.

Nice model dude. Did you cloth sim the cover?

Yes, I did. Put on a lot of friction to keep it from sliding off. I worked out really well.. Then just used soft select to bend the front and rear around and then just relax it a bit.

Ok, so I had to see what some textures look like... Not real satisfied with them yet, but hey, it's a work in progress....

Looking really good. you're working very quickly too. the only crit that comes in to my head is that the fabric looks in some way too thick. like the creases are too large. it makes the cart feel like a miniature. not that its a huge problem but it struck me.

---

I agree with you on that one... I think I may need to make the texture of the cloth a little less course too.

---

I think it's looking pretty damn good. Could we see a higher res version?

---

[Link to www.3dprevis.com]

Thanks Steve. Once I tweak the texture a bit.. I'll link a high res version to my site.

Ok, I've tweaked the materials to where I am satisfied with them. I love using "blend" material. Steve, here is a link for the high res 1680 x 1050.

looks really good. the only thing I'd say now is that I can see the tiling of the wood texture on the front panel and the seat. if you make a single piece of wood texture for each of those pieces it would go along way I think.

---

I agree. Thanks Tyson

Looking fantastic. I think the seat's the only thing that needs a bit of texture work.
