HalfOfZero Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 I <3 you're threads.I hate the rear end of the Up.. I think it's the lights.. Are they off a Ford Transit van?! I also don't like the rear bumper, I understand they tried to mimic the front, with the grill shape groove.. But it just looks daft. Smooth it off? I think a LCR splitter would change the front a bit, make it sportier.. The headrests too, they look massive? Maybe swap them for other ones, that just go over the top of the seat and down a little (Seen them in Volvos, Mercs, Renaults... Dunno what theyre called), just looks minimalist..Oh yeah, and agrresive arches + banded wheels Need any more ideas lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStryder360 Posted December 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Cheers guys!!Awesome work man, had a look through your site, dude got skillz Thanks much appreciated matey I <3 you're threads.I hate the rear end of the Up..

Dunno what theyre called), just looks minimalist..Oh yeah, and agrresive arches + banded wheels Need any more ideas lolFord Transit lights are beasting ha.. I will smooth it all off once its complete. Maybe too smooth.Tried the splitter first before applying the standard, didnt fit - but then as you requested it, fiddled with it, cut it down, bent it ha... and its on. With the interior, that will be a last attack. Barely do ints, too much effort! ha.'GTI style' arches and Bandeds will come! Thanks for all the suggestions!Did more of the rear, top, front, side.. well bit more of all of it.Test Exhaust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitchell Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 ive looked at quite a few pics and video's and the only thing that i can see being an issue in real life modding is the tailgate , due to it being glass the boot lock etc would have to stay.

MikeW Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 Really really good mate, i would love to get my CAD to this standard Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfOfZero Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Hmmm, true 'dat, about the boot.. I've just noticed, but the glass window part.. The corners of it reflect the angles of the tail lights. The stupid little "next gen" edge to it looks silly.. why not just stick to a 90 degree corner?! Stoopid if you ask me.... *Goes off to sulk* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H3NRY Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 hahaha yeah... The trim in the seat will be terrible though.You can have your thread back now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStryder360 Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Cheers for all the comments..3D Modelling sub-forum? I was surprised at when modelling the UP! that the Boot was one big obscuration band considering as mentioned the terribly named Seat Wii Mii doesn't, and neither does the Skoda offspring - Citigo - which actually looks pretty nice. VW's Up looks the most modern of the lot though IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thooooom Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 i think the best thing that makes the Up! stand out is the rear quarter glass shape, which isnt just a square shape on the Up! but is on the others. makes i huge difference and makes it much more modern looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStryder360 Posted February 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 More versions! Not so exciting 4 door, but interesting 4x4. Concepts mind. Need to catch up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
