This is my current progress, i need to design the interior but I’m happy so far

In 2010, Tristella may surge forward with the release of the Tristella Guildian Concept—an emboldened new step toward creating a slightly more affordable sports car that still carries the design and elegance Tristella is known for.

Beneath its triangular-themed, stunning curvature, onlookers can admire the engine under its glass cover: a modest 1.75L Aquila T4 turbocharged I4, echoing the same design direction Alfa Predatore has taken with the recent release of their 8D Concept.

Inspired in part by the Tristella Pavonini, with its attractive rear grille, and the Otus, with its heavily vented exterior and rear engine cover, the Guildian presents a new step forward while respecting the past successes of the Tristella brand.

The rear lights, while circular, are arranged in the shape of a triangle, alongside triangular blinkers similar to those seen on the Otus. The shape of the hood also echoes the same triangular theme, along with the top section of its rear grille.

Despite having a comparatively small motor when measured against its predecessors, it is far from slow. Sporting a top speed of 272 km/h (250 km/h in practice), it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.1 seconds. The Guildian doesn’t just achieve those speeds, though—it reaches them in extreme comfort.

With racing-inspired seats and a sequential gearbox, the all-leather interior impresses and excites. Automatic windows, seat heaters, and a Dilby sound system combine with onboard infotainment and integrated climate control, allowing you access to the entire internet from the comfort of your seat.

Available in five different colours—Nero Black, Argento Nürburgring Silver, Viola Metallic, Rosso Maranello, and Blu Pozzi—the Guildian offers interiors in Cuoio Scuro Brown, Tan, or Rosso Corsa (show models are only available with one interior colour). Each Guildian is built to order.

Koviico → Tristella Alcedo: The Kingfisher

.

Representing a design proposition using the Grand Tourer body style to start with, the Alcedo brings a modern, clean and sleek design. Its aggressive but restrained in its aggressiveness, even with its wide stance and fenders. Curves and lines all work well together to bring an exotic feel, the Tristella DNA definitely showing in the design. The rear in particular is perhaps one of my favorites of those presented, sleeker than the outgoing Crecerelle, with a purposeful diffuser cleanly defined in the design. Only part that I would say could use improvement is the front bumper, with the grille being a bit too sharp and angular compared to the rest of the car, the foglamps feeling a little dated and the headlights possibly being a touch too low for this era. All pretty minor however.

Beauty: 9/10

The Alcedo if you put it next to the Crecerelle is one you can definitely say “yes, that is the next generation”. Needless to say, it is very good for its score for identity. The triple taillight is a great evolution to the previous era’s, and all of Tristella’s signature features are integrated into the design well. The triangle motifs are there, just minimal. The only thing that might hold this back is a thought of, does it move the design forward enough? Really, though, this would have had full marks if another car hadn’t moved the post just a little further in terms of its distinctiveness.

Identity & Distinctiveness: 9/10

As this was the first entry I had received, it served as the bar for most of the other ones. The work done for the body molding and the lines formed from it are very well done, with everything placed and positioned very cleanly. Even if I think the circular fog lamps are a bit dated, its integration is excellently done. There are some minor reflection issues, which is for the most part difficult to avoid as well as the headlights being a tad low as said before. Again, minor issues - its overall very well made.

Cohesiveness & Build Quality: 9/10


David_Herrera → Tristella Condor: The Biggest Bird

.

For a proposal built with mainly premade pieces, its not terrible. The Condor however, is just simply very outgunned here and the LaFerrari style body definitely shows its datedness when 2D is the primary fixture placement technique. It sits way too high for a supercar with far too much ground clearance, making it looks on stilts. Other areas of concern are the too large headlights and a rear end that’s too high on the body. It feels of a design that lacks experience more so that it being outright horrible, so with that said: don’t use the Laferrari body unless you know how to cut it up and rebuild.

Beauty: 5/10

If you squint at it, it does look like it fits with the brand, but you could say that about any red car with a sporty silhouette. The problem with the types of fixtures used here is that once you get into things like a distinct brand feel, they do start to become a bit generic. They are definitely still usable, but supplementing it with custom work is necessary to bring out a unique style both for you and for the type of car you’re designing.

Identity & Distinctiveness: 5/10

It actually quite difficult to grade this against some others for this section, simply because a lot less was used. Unfortunately, this isn’t the 40 fixture challenge, so you don’t get points for working with less. But on the plus side, the positioning of the fixtures isn’t bad, even if the scaling could be improved.

Cohesiveness & Build Quality: 4/10


the-chowi → Tristella Diomedea: The Albatross

.

The Diomedea starts off strong, with a very handsome front end that while evokes the shape of the Crecerelle, is modernized very nicely. It is around the time when the larger grille gets trendy, and this is implemented very well. Moving past the hood however, it does get a bit too blocky for my tastes, with how the side vent exits. The lines do make sense, just too angular for how the rest of the car is. Over to the rear is a triple tails setup that is an evolution of the previous design, at least in its internals. Unlike the Alcedo, they’re not encased within a housing and is right against the main body colour. This makes each light look a little on the small side. The lines are also a tad busy here as well, though the diffuser is well implemented. Overall a solid showing with minor design choices that could be improved upon.

Beauty: 8/10

From an evolutionary stand point, the Diomedea does a good job of bringing continuity onwards from the previous generation. It hits all the marks for characteristics, while embracing the new ones. Only thing holding it back is that it does lack a certain… wow factor. May it be aggression, or elegance, or both. It could be a matter of sharpening up the angles a little more, or even making them just curvier. Also might be just me but it feels kind of a mix of Italian and British - which isn’t necessarily bad, just an observation.

Identity & Distinctiveness: 8.5/10

In terms of its build quality, the Diomedea is very solid. Parts with complex lines flow well into the other, and generally there isn’t anything that doesn’t look misplaced. However, the two spots I had gripes on earlier also would be where its flaws lie, with the side vent looking quite flat and the rear having perhaps too many lines. Still, as those are the only two things, its a very strong build over all.

Cohesiveness & Build Quality: 9/10


fallenvalkyrie → Tristella Guildian: The Finch

.

While the Guildian isn’t necessarily a bad looking car, its main flaw is that it looks more like a mid 2000s design than one going into the 2010s, plus some glaring proportions issues. The lack of DRLs, the proportionally too large headlamps, the rather standard tail lamps as well as the body coloured strakes on the vents all contribute to that. The hood vents are also entirely too large, while the rear end fixtures are all too clumped together in the middle. As it stands, it has some of the ingredients to make a decent (mid-2000s) design, but will need tweaks in a lot of the fixture proportions to balance it out. The black paint also hides a lot of details, generally a bad call to enter into a design challenge with it unless you know exactly what to do with it.

Beauty: 6/10

The Guildian, while it passes the squint test and had a fair amount of elements requested, does struggle a little with being a Tristella. Yes, it has lights in threes, but just having three isn’t what makes them look part of the brand. There’s a vibe of British supercar built in a shed about it - likely due to how similar it looks to an Ascari KZ-1. Its datedness also does not help it in this era, where this would feel more like a company stuck in an era than one moving forward.

Identity & Distinctiveness: 5/10

There are too many vents on this. Generally this era has quite clean surfaces, and where there are vents they’re fairly singular and or very well integrated into the car’s lines. The rear in particular is a mess lof lines, horizontal, diagonal, lines going inward and outward. Its just too much and reducing it significantly would help a lot.

Cohesiveness & Build Quality: 5/10


Kanye_West → Tristella L’uccello: The “Bird”

.

Ignoring that no one in Italy would name the car that, the L’uccello shows very impressive surfacing and molding work for its take on this body. The front angle is particularly strong, with sharp lines that flow well into the curves of the body and very excellently implemented headlights. The rear molding is very well done too, though that is where some of the flaws creep into the design. The triangle tailights in the shape on the new badge doesn’t exactly fit the housing shape, and while minor, the full length light bar definitely wasn’t the style at the time. Meanwhile, other small things is the exhaust poking out a little too much and the front fender vent looking tiny to the area its on. Overall however, its still very good.

Beauty: 9/10

Having a Laferrari body car succeed an Enzo inspired car really just makes sense, and even regardless of that, if you put the two together it does go without being a clear design details explicitly matching kind of way. In fact, there is a lot of difference but it just feels right. If there’s one thing that could be more present however, is probably a little more on the motifs. Yes the taillights are the badge shape, but maybe a little less concentrated to the one spot would be nice.

Identity & Distinctiveness: 9/10

I’ll just get the taillights comment out of the way, as that is really the only flaw there is on this from my perspective. The way the body has been molded, cut into and extended is just excellent. There’s not really any flaws and the way you have to really look for any reflection faults, in a game where it is genuinely difficult to escape without it is proof of that. Well done.

Cohesiveness & Build Quality: 9.5/10


Speeeed_D3m0n → Tristella Corvus: The Raven (Returns)

.

This new Corvus is is the only entry to hit the convertible side of things, and verdict? Its not bad. The design does look appropriately of the correct era, with elements similar but definitely incorporating more modern shapes and angles. There are a few things that when viewed at a different angle drops the score significantly - with the side view being blatantly noticeable. The front has a slope that is both wildly unrealistic and looks almost flat, giving it a look of being just cut off from the car. Its somewhat well hidden on any other angle, but its such a big flaw that cannot be overlooked. Other ones are far more minor, just as the front grille being within an indent that would fit a larger grille. Overall, its not bad, just hampered by one major issue.

Beauty: 7/10

In terms of its identity, this new Corvus does look the part of being a new generation. In fact the rear is basically how I would do it myself, with maybe the difference of a custom diffuser setup. The front lights do have the a touch of the motif, which is good. Copying the vent setup from the previous Corvus however, probably could have been improved to become more aggressive like the rest of the design. A more distinct front grille would also be nice.

Identity & Distinctiveness: 7/10

Aside from the cut the front has received, the build is fairly solid. With how most angles obscures the issue, it does look fairly complete. The front indent where the grille sits does make the design look a bit incomplete, while the side vent is a tad too close to the rear wheel arch. A custom rear diffuser would also help tie together the rear wheel vents. Definitely improvements needed, but a good direction with a poor use of morphs.

Cohesiveness & Build Quality: 7.5/10


Er_Foxone → Tristella Nibbio: The Kite

.

Having dark images obscure your design may be a trendy and popular thing to do, but when it comes to presenting your design proposal, its also a sign that you’re hiding something. And what is it you could be hiding here? Apparently, its a bunch of sharp creases that don’t seem to have any flow at all. They simply don’t work at all and much as I don’t want to say don’t use body molding, I will have to say don’t use body molding like this. It looks more like someone shaved off bits of the car with a knife. This body choice, while a cool one, also needs a lot of work to keep it from looking like a concept car, work that unfortunately, this does not have. As for positives, the one part not hidden in your initial picture, being the headlights, are actually quite good.

Beauty: 4/10

While this does take a few things from the Crecerelle, the Nibbio also doesn’t take enough. It also lacks any of the motifs requested. As such, if you squint it vaguely looks like a Tristella concept car. And if you don’t, it looks like a concept grand tourer with rendering artifacts.

Identity & Distinctiveness: 4/10

I don’t like to give out too many criticisms without complimenting something good, but much of what has been said is said - the headlights are good. Rest I’d say to start over with a grander picture with where the lines will go. Because currently, there’s just so much just put on the car as it seems without much thought behind where it goes and how it would work together in the grander picture. Sorry.

Cohesiveness & Build Quality: 3/10


CrazyCat808 → Tristella Fenice: The Phoenix

.

Fenice is a name that while great, I did actually already use for Tristella. In a model that’s later on in the future of the brand…

Ignoring the name usage that would go into time paradoxes, the Fenice does have some very strong traits, but has a few things I am iffy on. It is a very clean build, with strong lines that works well with the curves, and distinctive elements that nicely move the brand onto the future. The lights in particular are very well done, as is how the side vent is integrated, with that panel line leading up to it. The issue mainly lies with the usage of grey, that ends up cheaping the design a bit. Its an interesting element that makes it stand out, but there’s just a little too much of it around the lights and the vents. The exhaust design is also a little too funky, with the inner one making it cross the line of being too much. Proportionally, while everything on the body is good, the wheels are also a tad too big, which makes the car look a bit Hot Wheels-ish.

Beauty: 8/10

If this was used to move forward the designs of Tristella, it certainly would do that. Its fresh, different, but still brings some elements from previous designs into it. However, it does also go its own way a little too much. Looking at it, it doesn’t quite capture the brand image, being different enough to confuse it of being something else. There isn’t one thing I could point to in particular that does this, so it is more of a combination of things. Just taking away one of the factors, be it the fully blacked out roof, the vent outlines, or just taking a little more from previous models would fix this.

Identity & Distinctiveness: 7.5/10

If there’s somewhere this build excels, its in how well its made. Even if I have gripes on parts of the design, the way its put together is top notch, with the whole design working well together. Panel lining might be some of the best I have seen, and surface has smooth and crisp transitions. There’s even just one or two spots where the reflections don’t line, and I do have to nitpick for that with it being more of a game issue.

Cohesiveness & Build Quality: 10/10


Mikonp7 → Tristella Fregata: The Frigate

.

Going far into the extreme track direction, the Fregata goes too hard for the track for this era. The use of carbon is excessive and the rear end is way too cut up for a 2010s design - just check the more extreme example of the era in the 599XX Evo for reference. Body choice too could be better, with the cabin and front end being too squared off for an Italian super GT. Sharper or curvier would have been preferred.

Beauty: 6/10

Now moving to identity, its no secret I do like a track special made for Tristella. And this does include quite a few elements I like, and does work because it is an extreme track car. The black graphic extending out the comparatively small headlamps, the hood design and the taillights while simple, both is aggressive and works for the era. Everything in carbon however is too brute, utilitarian and squared off for Tristella’s image however, looking more of how a heavy German or cut up Japanese import would go about gaining speed.

Identity & Distinctiveness: 8/10

There’s quite a few area unfortunately where the excess use of carbon shows the weakness in this build. From the front bumper, where parts of the wheelarch still shows the main colour paint breaking up the two tone, parts of the side not being a continuous line, and the rear dipping down a bit so that the break between the two colours is more of a freehand straight line than a straight line made with a ruler. Also the diffuser bits that just look like they’re clipping into one another rather than a single piece. I know that’s how Automation 3D works, but it could have been done better to sell the illusion of being connected properly.

Cohesiveness & Build Quality: 7/10


Portalkat42 → Tristella Cuvierrii: The Rail

.

Is retromodern in currently? If done right, its always in. And the Cuvierrii undoubtedly does it right. Paying homage to the 1953 Falco, the Curvierrii reimagines the wild curves on a modern Grand Tourer and needless to say, it does it very well. The entire rear view is simply beautiful, from how the side vents are integrated, the way the side skirt slows to the rear bumper and how the rear end is integrated to the wide haunches of the rear fenders. On the front end, the front fenders and lights are also very well done, expressing its modern interpretation of the wild front haunches to be much like the Falco’s. If there is one flaw of the Cuvierrii however, is that its nose does look a little long especially under certain lighting conditions. I do understand the difficulty in the type of curves you are going for however, soit can be chalked to game limitation.

Beauty: 10/10

While this is undoubtedly a modern reinterpretation, there’s a point where its enough of its own thing, yet also has enough connective elements to clearly connect its lineage. The Cuvierri is distinctly its own thing, it has a far wilder shape than its predecessor, while having subtle cues that clearly define what it is. Its historic roots are clearly there, but its also very clearly, a modern 2010s design. The small touches, such as the triangle indicators give it the motifs desired, while also not being overbearing and in your face. Sometimes the best way to move forward is to see where you have been before, and this does that.

Identity & Distinctiveness: 10/10

Needless to say that the build quality here is top notch - enough so that since it was of the last entrants entered everything else had to be shifted to compensate. The only part that bothers me is where the 3D nose/ hood meets where the body truly is.But given the game’s limitation and the quality and cohesiveness of the rest of the design, it’ll still be a nearly perfect score here.

Cohesiveness & Build Quality: 9.5/10
