Ferrari 360
 

my first car model in maya
i think it came out pretty good :)
after only 5 minutes of rendering :P :p

yes, deffinatly good.

Your render isnt that great though, try enabling Final Gather, (if its not already enabled) and if it is, then set the rays to 300-400.

Also for the HDRI make it emit at LEAST 25 000 photons... 100 000 is optimal.

Good model though :beer:

Good modeling, nice wok.

I think that the materials are a bit too reflective, try adjustin the reflections with a ramp to give a better look to the reflections

its a great model redmer.

this car is a bit too reflective, giving it a more plastic feel than metal . and like alot of cars that i have seen here, its hovering.

thnx if you could tell me how to make te hdri image emit 25000 photons? i can't find it it's on a sphere with a lambert material

@13th resisdent.. thnx but i checked the scene and as far as i can see the tires are going through the floor material

if made another 2 renders 1 with ray trace set to 300
and dropped the reflectifty
and made a render from the rear

Nice, but as said increase the photons, to get a nicer and more sharp look. Also dude, how much free time you got? You were busy with the mech model, know you have already finished the ferrari, and you were busy with the apache.. Seriously too much free time, don't you got school, work or some other form of education? :eek:

I have a lot of spare time too. Do you want to jump on me for it as well? And, last time I checked, work isn't some form of education ;)

Nice renders, but please do as I said in the first post- Final Gather to 300- photons to 100000.

And your model is really good :beer:

@maya student
don't have much free time acctually :D
just working hard and try doing it right the first time
the ferrari i created in 5 days
with total of 20 hours orso
and i still go to school am 19 years old

@MattTheMan
the image i posted last had final gather ray on 300
but i don't know how to set the photons to 100000
the hdri image is set on a spehere how can i set the photons then

Right here-

Mattheman: Yes give me your time! Just dress like me and you go to school instead of me, so i can model all day!

And 20 hours in 5 days, that's 4 hours a day. I find that a lot of free time ;)

thnx matttheman
not if you work from moring 7 o'clock till 5 o'clock in the evening
i'm at interm at company being a system/network administrator
and after the summer i'm going back to school than i even have much more free time :D

Ok, well I think I deserve the free time... I just finished school (for the year, summer vacation now) and I can't work (under 16), and I can't drive. And no, I can't go to summer school, I doubt there's a need to for someone going into 9th grade with a 99.8/100 grade average.

And- redmer- that's cool! My dad is a systems/network administrator too :)

-Matt

one year to go
and than i'm maybe going to a game college in the netherlands :D

nice model but i think the tinted glass needs changing too me its way too dark

just a thought


mattheman - lucky to be on holiday still got about 2 months or so left
also wt do photons do?
good luck

If there's one critique I'd make, it'd be to get rid of the HDRI completely. It seems like everyone immediately uses HDRI's to render EVERYTHING, with no regard for lighting techniques, and the fact is, unless you're really careful, HDRI's just make your model look fake.

Pick up "Digital Lighting and Rendering", by Jeremy Birn. It'll steer you in the right direction for lighting techniques. If you look at real car commercials in print, 99% of the time it's a sexy, clean look, with flowing highlights, and no ugly reflections. If you try to mimic that look, the human eye automatically perceives the model as more real. HDRI reflections are often too distracting.

That being said, if you must use an HDRI, try to make it in context. Check out this link for examples of excelent HDRI use. Most of these pictures are modeled in Maya, and rendered with the PURE hardware card.
