Back from the dead after twelve long years!

Post by NorthernLonewolf »

Back from the dead, and my monster truck interest is roaring back to life! 8)

I've got another project going on in Blender, which I am quite skilled with. And so, after twelve long years, I might as well finish this WIP :mrgreen:

Big Swede is soon to hit the road, with the other legendary old-school beasts.

Yeah... a real long time. Except I wasn't too old back then (16) and being 28 in a few days, I've got quite a basic understanding of Blender and how it works in there now.

Today I decided to start Learning BINedit, and with experience in Blender, it shouldn't be too difficult, I hope.

my advice, model your truck in Blender, export it to OBJ format and in Binedit import it and map it.

Update

Post by NorthernLonewolf »

Yes, the project is still alive, despite being started 12 years ago, it's still going. A first screenshot to show the progess so far.

I'm basically stuck in this two-dimensional space, as I don't have any plans from the front or top of this particular car. So if anybody here knows where I can find plans for this Volvo Duett, feel free to reply here.

Lastly, this is one of my many projects. I'm working on three other 3D projects as well, four including this one. So it could take a while before this truck is done...

Update as of late 2020...

Post by NorthernLonewolf »

Hi all,

I'm not dead, nor struck by corona, but I have been thinking about making this truck a little different... More like a Volvo pickup of some sort, if it exists. I can only find some conversions of standard Volvo cars/trucks on the web. But no actual pickup of a Volvo from scratch. I'll try and see what I can dig up.
