I found this to be VERY interesting and hopefully others take the time to check it out. I wish I was able to do something like this. Be sure to check out the 4 pages.

Quote:This is my impression of a Mustang that will be another one of the props in the short (4 minute) CG cartoon being produced by our San Diego LightWave User Group for submission to the SIGGRAPH 2007 Computer Animation Festival (this August here in San Diego). Actually - it looks like we will miss the submission deadline for this year so we may have to shoot for next year, but - oh well!

This model will also start as a child's toy then morph into a real race car. Later the race car body opens up funny-car-dragster-style to reveal a massive engine, dual jets, the martial arts master driver and a collection of his weapons (all my modeling work is in modo). Others will do the final surfacing (modo) rigging (LightWave), animation (Motion Builder) and rendering (LightWave), as well as modeling the children and other characters/props.

Story and Build continues here.....

I sent him a email to see if the video was ever made. Seems he got very busy and was un-able to finish it but he hopes to continue when time allows.
