Erm, closer, but I was going for "exactly the same shape". Maybe make it stick out at the bottom.

Ok - the following is another horn of similar shape on the front - turned 90 degrees and modified to fit the location.

Thanks Xanax, Alien, others.

All it takes is some patience - from myself and those who opt to help guide me when stuck ^_^

Hrm, closer still. But having them three line up like that doesn't look so good. Maybe put the middle one lower?

Ok I made a couple more versions with lower centers - I think the lower of the two looks the better of the two so thats the one I'll post.

And file.

I need to learn texturing pretty much from scratch but will get to it.

In the meantime any pointers, direct or to an instructions page, would be appreciated.

Also tips on how to deal with team colours would be helpful. Thanks.

I don't know, the front part seems way too tall... Seems something is missing between the middle "horn" and the top of the truck.
Current status: Sick and Learning to model in blender. Failing at both.

Maybe a bulbous protrusion like Robby the Robot's head, indicating some sort of artificial brain activity. O_o

J/K, Avestron. ;)

I'm not sure but perhaps team colours or other texturing could help with that space further up.

I could add geometry if that fails.

Will need to go to the manuals - things are just tight this weekend,

I am still struggling with texturing...

Managed to apply a texture to part of an object but the render comes out very faint.

Also any tips on how to apply team colours? Is this a particular texture or a matter of multiple images?
