Happy days returns!...big plan this week


Peek outside my house....bright windy hot sunny day!..Alright! its a brand new day for me! starting today i'm going to have a week of holidays from office work. A big plan to start the week full of usefull activity! Good, the weather is soo fine, sunny and hot! Reminds me being young at 12 jumping around with friend out into country side like Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Fin....their kiddy life almost similar to mine...that was in the past i hope i can relive that glories adventure moments. Time top grab out my bike and dash into the urban wilderness! ..best was to relief stress and refresh my mind so when i come back home i could design my models at ease tonight. Oh yeah this week i'm planing to finish off the truckm models as soon as possible so i could release is it quick and move along with 2 SDK models to be deployed at the website. Some third party user already waiting behind lines to port my models into various games add-on. Also next i will proceed with the release of the long awaited "SIXTY-7". February new model release is going to be super!

Part 11: The vital appearance!

Time is very short! i have to pump up the speed to finish up the design. Today i manage to design a more rugged appearance..macho and mad looking frontal appearance. Startup with headlights design and light case, the headlights are more mad like eye appearance much like old skool muscle trucks looks. Both top and bottom headlight are pretty similar in design except the lower ones are smaller more like act as fog lights. Headlights hull are deep inside the front case. The top hood in mid section meshes been dug out a ventilation hole direct into carburator for air intake design. I hope the new frontal design will be trademark for the next line of SupermotoXL super offroader. Well it took me more than 9 hours to think about the headlight design. That's what i get for having no blueprint to start with....everthing guided through my brain.






Part 10: The exhaust port

I've decided to design the exhaust which should be located below the front door cabin just behind the front wheel fender for easy fume exiting and more stylish muscle looks.

Part 7: Rear touch up

Building some rear appearance, did some cool "X" marking just like my previous car design to make it feels more identity to my designs, my usual popular dual lense lights and rear racing style rally canopy.

My buddy wedding dinner.


After i finish up some model work i left my house at 6.30pm to join the invitation to my mountain biking buddy of mine who have his wedding today. Congratulation Kevin!!! You're now break away from bachelor world. It was a traditional chinese wedding dinner held at the grand hotel restaurant. At first it was bad idea to have a wedding dinner with my tooth ache but after few munchies holy cow! the pain is gone!...maybe some beef or crusty chicken killed my nerve on my gum as i munch like a hog! I finally get to enjoy some delicious chinese cuisine. Most of those people who attends are close family, friends, mountain biker and house of hasher group (those crosscountry people on foot sports).
I did bring along my PSP equipped with go cam taking several high resolution picture and videos. Its was great tools. At some point my PSP become spotlight againts other people camera and cam phone...maybe they didn't expect a handheld game console turn out to be super Divicam on tyhe fly. I predict tomorrow PSP going to be sold off from local shop soon after today's head turner event, lol. Ok,wedding dinner was great! Check out the picture of the delicious wedding menu.
The crowds went wild, karaoke, drunk old man, the babes, the singles and some loud people doing carzy thing to spark the evening spotlight. The bride looks OK, but the babe who attend the dinner was ultra hot. I don't see much of my mountain biker group bring some hotties around. Anyway the dinner lasted till 10.30 pm. I had my belly full of hot boiled fat filled foot. Yeah i skipped the broccoli.lol

Part 6: Rear and door details


Despite having a serious barin stree due to my tooth pain the show must go on. Because i can concentrate to much so i just put half my effort by doing some minor touch up on the rear wind shield to make it modernized aero looks and door knobs for the side door which open like MAZDA RX-8 door style.

The pain is strong!!!!


Oh god why does it happen now! the pain is intensing! its like pricking my left brain or fels like my brain squashed between two huge elephant. I hope i don't get retarded else you won't have any models left to design. My tooth broken into halves few months ago but the pain sensation started 2 days again its its goin unbearable and increasingly awful each day. Yesterday i have to stay on sofa for the whole day. I loose precious hour wasted instead of working on finishing new truck. I've manage to call a dentist for an appointment to pull my broken big tooth on Tuesday...actually i hope they don't give me the needle shot..super needle phobic! I hate dental visit! those chair always reminds me of those horror stories death chair. I'v you guys didn't hear any news about me after Tuesday.... you know something.. pray for me dudes!

Morning special breakfast.

tasty breakfast..roti canai. Simple, cheap, crusty yummy ready to dip with curry sauce. This is called "ROTI CANAI".. ..originated from indian food. This taste good in the morning and really boost my mood to work.

Part 5: Frontal groove




Concentrate working on making details like groove lines and grilling placeholder, if you look care fully the cut out process in progress. Major construction on bumper, frontal panel and hood to make it looks ultra muscular looks. It was tough decision where to implement this groove and cutout necessary panel to achieve certain looks that i would like to look at, if you see it carefully i actuall embedded almost half "X" style groove which pose as grilling design on the frontal nose of the chasis, half on the bumper and another half on the roof. That's the grill where the air sucks in through the engine. The mid where i put my logo. The same apply to the rear chasis but much more low profile, i haven't concentrate the rear yet but later hours will do.

Not feel so good yesterday.


Yesterday..I got nose bleed...maybe that probably because i can feel it when i was at the office, feel like something ooze out from my nose and smells like blood in the morning till noon and itchy a little, that really take out my concentration away from my computer. Later that day evening i drive out into the park and went for "ABC SPECIAL" = its a iced fruity food in a little bowl at local park mini open space stall. Feel refreshed and my brain tempreature getting lower.
I manage to continue work out on the truck design... manage to embeded the "X" "SupermotoXL" usual trade mark which actually a crossed grill design on the lower bumper and top mid hood. It was cool! I'lll show the snapshot later when i get back home. I'm on PSP now.

Part 4: Dug out frontal panel



Today i sculpt in a horizontal hollow to make out place holder for headlights and grill just below the hood. It was a basic construction but again need some re-work after that. My expextation to have a different facial than that of traditional truck design.

Part 3: Sculping windows, fenders, rear bed and body.


I was tired. Tired because i think a lot on how and what kind of windows, bed length, body width and wind shield angle, fenders hull and things i need to shape up the layout of the truck. Today i manage to poke out the meshes into windows sill, bed, fender full and narrow the height of front hood. Then it took me another 3 hours to figure out WHAT KIND OF SHAPE MY TRUCK SHOULD BE?.... I don't want an ordinary everyday truck that you always see in the magazine. I squishing my brain for another 10 hours thinking of a design with my usual touch just like other models. Was thinking getting the "X" trade mark on frontal and rear end of the meshes. A little "XL" taste. Today task was well spent! The 3d meshes of basic layout truck enough to proceed the design into next stage. I skipped my lunch..that was bad... eerrgghh..tummy growling..lol.

Part 2: Construction getting shape!

Remember there's no blueprint around here so its up to my imagination and moving my mouse device to morph and shape up those vertices surface on the object meshes. I've decided to hex style the fender design and use normal dynamic angle roof design added to the chassis. At first it was suppose to be hummer like cockpit roof but after staring the LCD screen for 36 hours blankly i decided to put the roof cockpit design just like any modern truck design because i think boxy type roof like Hummer or Scout 4 wheeler won't look good with hat chasis unless it looks boxy on both lower and upper chasis design. Next tast suppose to decide which type of windows design i should add to the top panel. I've been munching lots of chocolate bars just to think about it.

Driving.....wish i was on my bike.


I hate driving. Look! blue sky! windy and nice breezy lane. I wish i could tore off my car roof and enjoy the openness. I hate line up behind cars. wish i was on my bike. Maybe i should be.. You better exercise your heart because driving make you lazy and lazy heart leads to weak muscle and less heart pumping power. Can't wait to get back home and hug my bike.

Damn i'm hungry.


This is my favorite local noodles..."Bee Hoon" as saying in chinese breakfast cuisine. Fried and tasty noodles. I like fried! With shreded eggs and shrimps! This is my essential food to boost my productivity and moral early in the morning. Take my word seriously... if you don't have a good breakfast i guarantee later day you'll have a bad mood all day with numb stomach and your brain won't function cause no food kryptonite to stimulate brain functionality. For short your ideas won't pop-up for the day. So...breakfast is good for your brain ...enuff said so. Later i should work out my truck design after my working hours.... nyum! nyum! nyummm!

Birth: embryo of upcoming monster.

Put the other low rider...lets jumnp to making 4x4 super trucks!
Lets make a big leap over and jump into modelling for a while, this time i'm gonna show you how this little embryo find its way into complete living ultimate ride. Just started yesterday i started with somehing basic from construction material. .....i always start from a simple steps of boxes....then.................................... then at the end of the day i have a basic boxes which guides me to expected shape of new 4 wheeler........This going to be a long construction process....sometimes i pause my self in the middle of the 3d construction and design. Since i never use any physical blueprint to guide the design shape on 3d model meshes i just use my brain/imagination to guide my hand sculping the shape of the body which makes a concept vehicle for my design branding....Concept Design number 18. To be continue....
