As long as I can remember I'm a big fan of the Ghostbusters franchise. The cartoons, the toys and most importantly, the movies.
Ever since I started working with Maya, 4 years ago, I wanted to create the ECTO-1, the car driven by the Ghostbusters. A couple of months ago, I felt confident enough to start building the car. I always said to myself: "If you gonna do it, do it right" Because I love Ghostbusters so much, I would be ashamed of myself if could not make it as accurate as possible.
The whole car took 3months to build and texture. Not full time, but between my school work.
I build it using the Poly Smooth technique, exept for the hood, wich is done using NURBS.
texturing is done using Photoshop and it is rendered with Mental Ray.
