Anyone with any 3D modeling skills?
i've been toying with this idea to design a track, but have no 3d modeling software or skills (even just free-hand drawing for that matter). Is anyone in the TORA community capable to turn this pic Here into something that looks like it's real?
i get ideas in my head during work, and just have to draw them out otherwise i lose them. this drawing i made actually started out with some 18ga wire i had on my workstation, bent in a way similar to the picture i scanned above, but the picture above is an evolved version of the wire-"model" (originally, the part of the track exiting from underneath the 'upward spiral' to turn 1 was much shorter, and was only two hairpin corners, and the front straight was much closer to that loop/spiral). Some inspiration for this drawing came from a couple different places. 1, being the schicane section @ Silverstone, 2nd was the upward spiral, from one of the tracks on GT5, and the pit road exit going underneath the racing part of the track like the abu dhabi track

Re: Anyone with any 3D modeling skills?
I have some decent cad skills, but I'm totally swamped at the moment with work
I always like to see people getting into track designing for fun, and I'd recommend that you post it here: http://www.ten-tenths.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=59
The My Tracks forum on Ten-Tenths is a place I used to spend a lot of time, and there are a few people who can create tracks on SketchUp, and I'm sure they'd be glad to give it a go!
