My first attempt to model a car in any program. With Max's SubD scripts for MoI I thought I'd give it a try.
Still a WIP, but far enough along that I can answer the question that started this thread: Is MoI suitable for vehicle designs?
In my opinion, it depends. This model has gone surprisingly fast so far. And I'm a beginner. For cars without sharp edges I think the MoI SubD scripts work great. Controlling hard edges is a challenge with the current state of the tools, so I won't be attempting a 1964 Mustang or razor-edge Lamborghini.
Next steps are to finish tweaking the body, then use MoI traditional tools to make the windows, lights, grill, etc. Because the body is a solid, scooping out areas should be easy.
I'll make a mini-tutorial if anyone is interested.
