Thanks for the reply and C&C
2kadajawi: you're right there are still a lot of details that must be changed. i'll fix and re render it again soon))))

Glad that you're not mad at me, I was a bit harsh, sorry. Modelling cars really is a pain in the a..

Tried that one. Urghs.

Hi everybody!
Take a look at these images (some remake, colour correction):

Some of them are still noisy because the main aim is to prepare a small demo-reel with a low resolution.

Stunning stuff. Is the wheel bump-maped? Please don't tell me it's all geometry...

Vanessa07 · Post by **Vanessa07** » Tue Jan 08, 2008 10:01 pm

It can't be done only with bump

Too beautyfull for bump...

Hey cooler_Inc.... some really nice modeling and some sexy renderings dude!
Also with Interrior... nice!!

But I still found some issues regarding your mesh, see attached picture...
The chromed thing above the back license plate seems way to massiv, and you forgot some detail to the back Bumper (comparing to reference shots and Blue Prints I know)

I would love to see some renderings with nice Env Maps of this baby, damn I have to finish this shadow composing Tutorial

Your car paint seems interesting... anything you can tell us about the Paint, a blend using void.nk?!

Nice improvements, though there still are a few problems in the mesh as ZomB pointed out. I think you have choosen one of the hardest cars, with lots of lines that flow into other parts (for example there is a line going from the side right into the rear lights) etc. Good looking car though.

Anyway, here what I have seen (apart from missing details). The chrome part at the back isn't so solid, it gets thinner towards the ends. The rear window isn't surrounded by some rubber strip, but it is black towards the corners. Also it is curved, yours looks flat.

Hope I'm not too rude, you've done a great job so far, and the wheels are amazing, and the materials are all top notch.

Thx people for your C&C

it'll help me in the future.

The wheel is UV-mapped texture = bump, the geometry is simple, but the texture is hand-maded
There's still a lot of bugs (you pointed out right)
Car material:

Code: Select all

<material>
		<name>body_grey</name>
		<phong>
			<exponent>1e+006</exponent>
			<diffuse_albedo_spectrum>

					<rgb>0 0 0</rgb>
					<gamma>2.2</gamma>
				</rgb>
			</diffuse_albedo_spectrum>
			<ior>1.60838</ior>
		</phong>
	</material>

Very nice car!
I know, it would be extremely time consuming... But this image, set in a desert, might look good with the real sky system, which adds scattering to the air (which makes it appearing hotter

)

Awesome car! Is the material on the door mirror set up as a mirror? It doesn't seem to reflect anything but that might be because of the angle of the camera or there is nothing in the scene to reflect?

Paint is awesome, wheels awesome, tires awesome, brakes awesome, exhaust awesome!

Hey cooler_inc...

for some interesting Car Paint, try to use the void.nk that gives you some wonderful fresnel reflection (you can blend it with other mats too!).

Here an nice car by jurasek using Void.nk.

Here some more void.nk cars
