that looks kickA$$!!

yea the not hot one has a point, that does look pretty sweet, id like to get a copy of it when ur done if thats ok

i like it already

muhaha :D Gotz the hood on

http://www.nfscars.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=8488&d=1174186436

someone must be board. looking good though

May I ask what you are doing this for?

Just, really bored? Or what?

I agree though, it looks good.
a
Nowwwwww, if you could make a model of it, and do like body-styling parts, and have them made up... via your program... that'd be sick

I have 4 years experience of making models for the Need For Speed video game series.

And yes, I can make anything. Maybe I'll model some of our fellow members' truck's.

sounds like a plan.
I could use a bumper....
just kidding, Looks really good man, I'd lose patience

that looks like a very serious project you have going. by any chance can you model a cowl hood for my 05 dakota. no one seems to make one. they all stop at 04.

Update 5:

http://www.nfscars.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=8489&d=1174203197

dude not going to lie that looks really good i cant wait to see it finished, but u really shouldnt be staying up all night to finish it either sleep is good for you, just remeber that

I think its a cool idea

REEAAALL NICE!! I'm actually making a pedal car for a school project. And of course I chose to do a dak look alike, but my own version. I'm using AuitoDesk Invetor, and when I'm done I'll have all the components working together including pedals and steering. should be pretty cool, but won't look quite as good as your. Nice job bud. I'll try to post pics when i'm done at the end of april.

Update 6

http://www.nfscars.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=8490&d=1174253628

I'd like to see it in a video game

ya, so you designed cars for NFS and you never made a dak for them;)

yea whats up with that y not put a dak in NFS???? come on throw us a bone here at least try to get it in

I am..I just put what I had ingame right now..lolz.

they need a Need for speed Trucks Unleashed. with a 2 gen dakota quad cab and extended cab.

Update 7:

http://www.nfscars.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=8491&d=1174287624

sweet!

very cool,
you gonna keep it mostly stock?
of course once you get the core done it would be easier to change.

I am making different parts. I have a stock hood to go along with it, too. There's gonna be a version of my truck, of course. Basically the body stays the same, anyway.

yes but that won't happen considering EA has made the NFS series into a ricer's heaven. Even if trucks were in there, they'd prolly require you put on 30" rims and 8 foot high spoilers or somethin..

It would be sweet to were a game around trucks. you could lift it or lower it,
or just do whatever you want.
street race or dirt racing, stuff like that

Update 8:

This...is taking a longass time.

http://www.nfscars.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=8492&d=1174373076

I need a perfect side view pic of the wheels. I'm looking for the BFG All terrains on a 15" Rim. Thx

i could get you a side view of the 15 in rim, but i dont have BFG all terrains i have the long trail t/as on my truck, if they are good enough let me know and ill upload one for you

yea I already have the 15" rim. I need the tire that fits it.

Update 9: Rims, Tires, and Rear Bumper

http://www.nfscars.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=8497&d=1174539950

wow i like seeing the rad through the grille!! looks great. Hurry it up, i wanna see it finished!! lol

/\/\/\/\/\ yea me too it looks great so far and what he said^^^

Damn that is coming together real well.
I use SolidWorks and NX here at school. Some good pics up at http://www.uoitmotorsports.com//index.php?option=com_datsogallery&Itemid=14&func=d etail&id=55

and http://www.uoitmotorsports.com//index.php?option=com_datsogallery&Itemid=14&func=v iewcategory&catid=1

I thought I'd have some phun and put it ingame... Don't question the reflection color, or off centered wheels, cuz I didn't wanna waste my time on it since it takes a long time to perfect when the truck isn't even finished.

lol, yea laziness is taking over. Interiors are a pain in the ass to make. I hate em.

Pretty neat man!

That looks awesome. Which "game" is this for ? I always wondered why they never put any Dak R/T's in any racing games. I also wonder why nobody ever made a good, street modded, hot rodDakota Diecast.

~CYCLONE_06

need for speed

quit being lazy and finish it:D

heh i wish it were that easy. I guess other stuff got in the way like fixin up the actual truck, lolz.

lol I hear ya

Dude that is freakin awesome... how many hours go into the creation of one vehicle?!?

well usually i can finish up a basic detail car in about...1 - 2 weeks which I would say is about...about 20 - 35 hours.

This so far took me about prolly around 30 - 40 hours.

wow... heh heh... well your doing one hell of a job on it man!!

heh...got bored...decided to work on this again after a year and a half...Made the cragars. Just needs the logo on the cap. The original pictures from the server it was on went bye bye so I uploaded some to show how it's progressing.

hardcore man, when you gonna have the lowrider done?
lol

sweet i was wonderin what happened to this

Starting to finally fill in gaps. I got the handles and mirrors in =) Oh yea and also fixed the tail lights...made a bit too flat before

Meh...not the best of textures, but it works being that I absolutely hate making interiors.

http://www.nfscars.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=9737&d=1220906264

that looks pimp!!!!!!

Just stumbled across this, awesome work man! What game are you making it for?

need for speed. This is mostly just for funsies, though. Kinda just testing my skills at a higher detail. Seeing it in a 3D car game just adds to it.

The dash is really starting to all come together real nicely.

the gauge details are siiick... i would like to see this in gran turismo

The Dak on the NFS6 gfx engine

http://www.nfscars.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=9742&d=1221105603

wow dude thats a siiick job, but i do however like the different rim combo, haha

LOL, that's only like that for model testing and stuff. Once everything starts getting more finalized then there will be separate versions.

Looks good Needs a back window though:D

niiiiiice, you should sneak that into the next NFS game just as a kick in the pussy to all those ricers.

Heh...got lazy on the Dak again. A little Sunday night boredom and I decided to put my past projects all together =D
