Cooya!

It already looks soooo beautiful!  :)

Jaguara

That's a fast progress. Good model.

Looking at the Bora, is the Gruppo 4 version down the line? Or just the basic Bora for now? Just asking out of curiosity.

The CSR Classic Group 4 Bora has already been converted to Assetto Corsa, GT Legend, GTA... Its polycount is modest, and I prefer to leave it to converters.

I also think it's a Pandora's box. The Ghibli, the Mangusta, the Aston V8, the Stratos, the Daytona, the A310...  could also be adapted into racing versions.
Looking back, I think the Miura SVR was one too many in my collection. The Jota was a concept car, a unique model like the Boomerang, the Bravo, and a broken dream with a vision like the M6B GT, or the AC A98 coupé, Marcos XP mantis.

I see. Thank you for the response Butch.

Wow, that Bora looks fantastic!

I feel guilty for that and I am sorry... but in my defense: I just asked for a SVR spoiler as an :OT part for the Jota... The rest is history  :D
The Bora looks absolutely fantastic. I am very happy that you are building this car. We can't have enough 70's "supercars" and this one has never been made for a racing game. Although I have to admit that for me it looks a lot better without the late-model air-intake on the front hood. Maybe you should consider it an :OT-part again ;)

it's progressing

Goodness me that was fast! Excellent work Butch! The Maserati Bora looks wonderful!

I know the next one is the Ghibli, but after that......I vote for the Peugeot Proxima.

You're right. Furthermore, this air intake is inconsistent with the indicator repeaters and consumes polygons unnecessarily.

I still have to create the dashboard of the Bora and the second part of the X-Files team's project which removes the top.   :o :P

As it's been a long time since the previous concept car, I was thinking of slipping a Peugeot in between the two Maseratis: the Proxima (in red) or the 907 (in black).
If anyone has an opinion or preference on this, now is the place to express it.

The Proxima for me!!!  ;)
The 907 looks like the ugly cousin of the Mercedes SLR and since it was made in 2004 it is too modern for my NFS game and your portfolio.

Hey now, don't be mean of the Peugeot 907. It was a unique and radical Peugeot, but unfortunately it didn't go into production. Shame, because it would have been amazing. And who says that's too modern for NFS?

Again, my vote goes for the Proxima. The 907 may come along with a certain Marcos perhaps like the GT or Mantis XP?  ;)
