My job is working with CAD. In my free time I like to work on this 740.
It's not about realism - I know its totally ridiculous :-D

I will post some renders here from time to time.
All modelling is done in CATIA. Renders and assemblies are made in Fusion 360.

Great work! Did you actually measure everything, or just eyeballed it? Impressive either way
 
Thanks to all of you!

The engine stuff is roughly measured. A lot of the Casting details are eyeballed tho. :-D

The chassis is modelled based on technical drawings and pictures. The scale is pretty good.

I got my inspiration from some kind of redblock 3D printing project. It just catched me and I started to model the full engine... from there on I got myself some technical drawings and started to do the 740 around it. The interior is lacking a lot of detail (really difficult to do from pics).

Some suggested me to try modding it into Assetto Corsa... while that would be totally awesome I think the CAD Models are a bit overly detailed... maybe NASA wants to try rendering it in real time :rofl:

I just found out that you can export .fbx files from Fusion 360...

THE CAR IS GOING INTO UNREAL ENGINE TONIGHT! :nod:

In 2016 (18 at the time) I tried around a bit and got this:

I did not invest enough time to make it into something actually functioning tho.

Edit: Sorry for the video quality... I ripped it of some old Youtube account of mine.
 
My computer software cannot sprot .fbx files. I need better toys.
