Hi, definitely not the best render and lighting, but at this moment I'm tired to remake, rerender and so on
Made in Blender 2.49b from basic cube, Indigo 2.4.7
Let's lynch
Really great modelling and render!
As you said, lighting needs a little work (area lights are dimmer than environment etc..), but awesome work in general!
nice car! Looking good but lighting is "flat" whitout strong shadow so looks not real. Maybe is too much lights or global light is white ? Add more contrast, If car is white good add backplate in darker colors, now all is in this same color and is lit a bit boring because this is not white but more gray.
