Been meaning to get to this one for a while. It's going to be a more concept art based cleaver with some of my own touches :)

[MrDeviance]

If only Stainless hired you to make their cars. You have the potential to single-handedly push the visual seriousness of this game with your cars.

Your cars are a huge improvement over what Stainless made.

I am pretty sure you could improve every single reincarnation vanilla car by remaking it yourself, if only you had the time and motivation.

[AlexTSK]

That would a pretty awesome job, and the motivation is definitely there, but time is always the issue :)

Well you would also have to be capable of 3d modeling engine code to fix this game at this point...

Spoiler:

That makes no sense.

@MrDeviance Please keep on subject of AlexTSK's mods please.

Awesome work - Max is looking real mean!

[AlexTSK]

Thanks shane!

Moving along, the rear is still a bit lumpy but here's the subd levels so far. I can see the concept art has a bit more of a rounder cockpit so I've gone for it here. All the intakes also point the cleaver to be a rear engined car like the ford GT which obviously isn't the case. The long front however is pretty much wasted space so I'll be going for a front engine design as well.

[AlexTSK]

Finally starting to look like something. Added mock up spikes to the wheels, quite a bit smaller to compensate for the wider car. It should improve general quality of life when driving the car so the spikes don't clip everything in sight..

so this is your take one Cleaver according the original EDIT* CONCEPT? =D

[AlexTSK]

I'm using the concept art as more of a guide really since there's a lot I like about it, but obviously it's not going to look exactly the same :)

[Mad_Maxine]

welll.. ya If you just folowed the concept art exactly youd make a front engined Ford GT, thing is we cant see the rear of the car? so I see ya went more with the orignal CR one? rather than the orignals funky rear lights, or the orignals origanal concept art? :/ man theres so many versions of this car.

[AlexTSK]

It's going to have a bit of a different rear, I'm working on it right now :)

[AlexTSK]

And the rear! The subd parts are all done and dusted and I've spend most of the day cleaning and reducing the model starting with the back, keeping it nice and simple. Couple more things to add like the actual tail lights and a number plate but it's shaping up nicely. will be moving onto the front tomorrow and then its onto detailing.

[FatCat]

It would be rly cool if you released a mod once in a blue moon, Alex. Even if it's not done, just put in the description that it's a beta =D

[AlexTSK]

Moving swiftly along, the car is just about ready for detailing, interior, all that. The hard part is over!

Beautiful stuff man. Your car designs speak to me unlike the vanilla ones, which is such a shame.

You will make a living out of this some day, I am sure.

You get what carmageddon car remakes should look like and you give your designs a much more serious and mature tone as well as a shitload of extra details.

Thank you Sir that's much appreciated :)

[hazardic]

[AlexTSK]

Well CarMODgeddon is broken at the moment so yes :)

[AlexTSK]

Slamming together the suspension for the cleaver today. A blend between some high poly pieces and non subd geo. Going to do a lot more normal map baking this time around.

['80s Time Warp]

Nice work there :) What sort of Tri' count are you aiming for this time round?

[AlexTSK]

Round about the same as the Eagle, but it may come down depending on how much detail I can bake using high poly pieces :)

[AlexTSK]

Just thought I'd throw this up here for fun. This is what it looks like when I build a car these days, a yard sale...

['80s Time Warp]

"I'll give ya 20 Bucks for the bench seat. It should fit just nicely in my Hevy Impaler"

Seriously though, some good looking parts there :)

[AlexTSK]

It's funny because I keep building new ones and the old ones just sit in part packs, but hey this time around I've used stuff I made like 3 years ago so it's all in the name of saving time :)

That's what it looks like outside my house ;)

[AlexTSK]

In that case when's the party?

[Espyo]

I love seeing images like that. Man, they're more complex than what I thought.

I make things as difficult as possible for myself don't you know :P

[FatCat]

YOOOOOOOOO

That rim selection though, the customization menu is gonna get loads of love with all them rims.

[Toshiba-3]

Alex, couldn't you just replace all these details with flat textures? :D

Superb work ;)
