My very First 3D Cad - Lateral-g Forums

My very first 3D cad. It's one of my rims with the right dimensions.

What do you guys think about it?

That's pretty impressive for a first try. Gotta love the rotate profile curve and replicate object commands! One critique, if I may. You probably noticed this but the holes in the center look like they're inches deep rather than like 1/8" stamped steel part.

Nice job...now on to the rest of the car..ha ha!

I am using Autodesk Autocad 2005. Thinking of try one of the older 3Ds Max aswell. But i dont know whitch one is the best for making complete cars with. Autocad seams a bit hard to make a complete car in.

hey thats looks great for a first go at autocad!

i camt really say there is anthing wrong with it.

and if u want to try one of the older versions of max, ive used it since max 6 and the modeling process i use have not changed significaly.

like poly by poly, splines, or box, they have really stayed the same over the releases.
