Making this for the contest at sektor that I started today. I posted many screen caps since the beginning of the day if anyone is interested. http://www.sektor-41.com/forum/showthread.php?t=809

They should pay you to do this...
This is brilliant...

suggestions you may find interesting:

fit a BBS wheel in maybe? and then add some movement (tire spinning and then coming to a halt, and the camera going from side view to a direct view (from looking at wheel, to looking at the tire thread)) and the yokohama logo appearing out of the dark) add the engine revving sound and the tire squeal and maybe some smoke
and you will have a Yokohama advert good enough to show on TV, short and extremely beautiful...

Nice ideas!

I started the side of the tire, here is my second render:

Still could use a bit more curvature on the sidewall and leading up to the shoulder blocks.

Very nice so far :up:

Took 1 week to make this damn tire, but I am now done and happy

How much of the detail is mesh, and how much is textures?

Thanks for comments

And to answer question: no textures used.

Its *all* mesh? Wow. :cry:

Yup everything, right down to the little boxes.

Haha.. I don't even what to think how mnay polys it is...

one of my brothers is the owner of a "tyre sales" garage, so he can name every tyre, exhaust etc. on the market. I shown him this picture yesterday, and asked him if he thought it was real. He said "of course". When i told him it was a render, he was speechless

Great work phonso.

I'll take 4, 195/55/15 size please

Oh, they're not real, damn I really did think it was real for a second

That looks great, it's now on my desktop. *drools*

Simply amazing work Phonso. You definately have some talent and skill.
