Oh.. more about the car.

I was kind of miffed that you couldn't see the paint show up that well in the previous render, but that is what you get for using global illumination, and no direct light sources.. no shiny bits.

Anyhow.. did a test render with a direct light to show how the paint looks. Nothing has changed but the light:

no the wheels are the same, they are just reflecting a darker enviroment. Billet Alluminium is what I'm aiming for.

ITs the lighting that has made all the difference. That is the only thing that has changed between this render and the last

wow! The lighting change made it wooondermous! Before it was ok....but the car pops out at ya now. way cool :)

[darkcryst.livejournal.com]

yeah it really shows off the form and the paint. With the global illumination (what it was before) you can get much more realistic effects, but I hadn't bothered to set it up so that there was a direct light source like this one.

I was more interested in just showing off the model as a whole. This one is all about the paint baybeee! :)

There are even paint flecks in there if you look close enough.

I'm glad you like it :)

hehe, jah...the paint looks damn cool. ^_^ sweet. At first I didn't like the color much...I naturally stray toward blues though...but with the lighting...nice..

[darkcryst.livejournal.com]

oh yeah.. I intend it to be some kind of blue/purple thing.. not the reddy orange it is now.

[balinorelle.livejournal.com]

hehe. even better :P
