V12 Model

The 4 cam, 48 valve, V12 engine shown in the V12 demo has more than 1,200 individual components, built from over 10,000 objects and uses more than 1,000 animation tracks. This cad-accurate technical 3d model was created with Cinema 4D and has correct valve / ignition timing, firing order, compression ratio, etc. I designed and built this V12 model to create a CGA sequence that would demonstrate my technical 3d modelling skills.

I designed the V12 engine from scratch using my knowledge of automotive engineering. The design is not perfect, but it is a reasonable representation of a V12 internal combustion engine. Designing the engine from scratch was necessary to prevent any infringement of manufacturers patent rights and enables me to use and distribute the model / design without restriction. Any similarity between this design and any other design past or present is purely coincidental.

This complex design shows how computer technology has changed over recent years. When I first built this V12 3d model my computers almost came to a standstill. Fortunately, hardware has now caught up with the capabilities of my software and the latest high-spec computers enable me to produce 3d models and CGA sequences of virtually any complexity. Although I specialise in creating animated 3d engineering models / sequences, I can also create architectural and household models / sequences.
