Some hardcore 3D modeling. I did'nt use blueprints obviously, just some basic plans and elevations I found online and high-res detail photos from premiumF1live. I will say it's around 95% accurate....yup, the diffuser is correct.

Let me know if you see any glaring mistakes...I'll upload the model to a 3D site for peeps to buy. Feel free to take the images and use them.

outstanding work!

would it be possible for you to isolate the diffuser with what you have got and have a proper look at that by anychance? i know it wouldnt be perfect but atleast it would give people an idea of what the fuss is about.

Wow, Outstanding and awesome work there. They look so realistic.
How about maybe adding Button or Barichello on the side of the chasis near the headrest on the right or left?

Nice work anyhow!

Cheers.

Will do on the diffuser. I'll post it up in a while

It's already there, just didn't render that view. It's got Jenson's name there. I'll render it with the diffuser.

Very cool, but the sidepod cutaway and taper isn't quite accurate:



Also, the exhausts should be covered. Otherwise awesome

Oh ok sweet!

^ yes and where can we get it as i am very interested in learning how to do this myself

[jomaripretty]

no doubt that diffuser is creating a lot of downforce

I use LightWave 3D - newtek.com/lightwave.

Just a couple more touch-ups and it's done. Think I'll do BMW next.

Completely missed this post. Well spotted. I could not quite see the exhaust properly from the pics I had, all that reflective carbon fibre hides the details.
