Efini (Mazda) Rx7
A retro Japanese Sports Car

7 Speed
9 Weight

​

​

Custom sprites made for kart, a smaller design still keeps its iconic shape.
​

​

Its maximum weight allows for pure drifting fun.

The iconic head lights were not forgotten, it pops up when drifting.

Sounds used from: Trackmania United and Granturismo 2.

Finally putting the "Kar" in "Kart", I see.

... that sounded better in my head.

Longshot, but were these sprites inspired by the Choro Q series of toys/games by any chance? Because I see a resemblence. Regardless, very good work on this.

1.1 Fixes an issue with shading not being symmetrical on the back sprite.

I am also working on models for Open GL mode.

I didn't initially, but making the car smaller did lead to it looking similar. I did however, look at Choro Q toys to get an idea of how to size the model.

Ah, interesting. Kinda thought a Choro Q styled car would be nice to see one day. Again, love how this came out.

The sounds it makes just fills me with nostalgia. A skin alt with the Eunos Roadster/MX-5 with the same sounds would be so awesome... Nice art and overall nice character!

 

[Emgiell]

Am considering making other cars, what do people want to see?

 

[Memphis the Dork]

The DeLorean, of course!

 

[Dash20]

Honestly, I'd kill to see a Volkswagon Bus.

If one can remember Choro Q, what about that rubbish truck always hanging out at the back of the pack, his HG 2 name was Klein

Or Diez, the sky blue Ford GT-40

 

[Emgiell]

Just want to say, I didn't let this die, I am currently working on making the sprites not look like a perspective mess. I'm using the model as a better base you can compare the old sprites to the new unfinished ones.

I will be turning this into a Choro-Q themed pack. Would I need to resubmit the thread for every addition?

 

[Emgiell]

Soon to be changed into a Chroro-Q pack you can expect to see the redone RX7 and MKIV Supra.
