This was one of the first 3d models that I ever

created. It was modeled after a Honda Motorcycle

that I found online, mostly done in nurbs. I wanted

to experiment with nurbs because everyone kept

telling me how much easier polygons are, yet most

people say that organic, curvy objects (like a

motorcycle) are best modeled with nurbs.

The texture were a lot of fun on this model. I had

a lot of trouble finding or creating an effective glass

texture for a winshield, because regular glass does

not have the same thickness or curvature as glass

used for a windshield. I used an anisotropic texture

with a granite overlay and eventually came up with

this nice, sparkling blue.
