Big Boy (1977 Ford F-150 monster truck)

by ZOtm_BigDOGGe

2 truck set - one high-detailed version and one low-vertix (tourney) version for online competitions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tourney version

 This is an old-style monster truck using leaf springs and a steel body.  The F-150 body
originated as a 3DO model from a free model website.  No author name was included with
the body.  TURBO converted it to 4x4 evolution-2 format, and I converted his copy to MTM2 format.

 I cleaned up the model and replaced the 3-dimensional grill with a flat, textured version, and
replaced the hood with one that had a cut-out for the blower to project through. The textures/paint are 100% new and all painted by me.

 A retangular steel tube box frame was placed underneath, and leaf springs were
adapted to it.  A twin-tube rollbar was fabricated for the back, and it, the bumpers and
KC-style roof lights were mapped with simulated chrome textures.

A fuel tank was placed below behind the rear axle and trick paint was created and applied to
the body. Color-matching wheels and dual gas shocks were placed at all four
corners, and a black leather bed cover encloses the back.  Animated textures are
featured on the engine belt and pulleys to simulate rotation.

--------------------------------------------------------------

The Detailed version includes all mentioned above plus:

--> A detailed open bed in place of the bed-cover
--> Engine and headers visible through the front wheelwells and from below
--> Greater detail on the frame and rollbar
--> Throttle linkage on the air scoop
--> Side mirrors

vertix count:

Detailed truck = 1789 vertices
Tourney truck - 1282 vertices
