I thought uploading 2 pics in one post would be easy. Anyone know how to do it?

it looks good, but to be honest it's a little hard to see - perhaps a few lights might bring out the detail. i might make the interior a different color and I would also get rid of the slime green decals - they kind of make the car look a bit cheap and also look a bit like they've just been slapped on.

It look like a good model though - how did you model this? with polys? from a tutorial?

Maybe your contrast or brightness is off on your computer. It looks fine on both my computer and my laptop. Did you look at the HD version on my website?

What other color does leather come in?

I actually asked someone that knows a lot about cars to help me with the colors, so I think IÕll go with him. user added image

leather also comes in a brown, or tan sometimes.
It looks pretty good, but how do you render out an HD version? I like it, the only thing I wasn't a big fan of though is the flame color. Then again I'm not really a big fan of flame decales on cars in general.

er... pretty much any color you like....

i might ask someone who knows something about colors... user added image i tend to think that those bright colors look a bit cheap and flames always just seem kind of redundant to me - kind of like writing 'fast' on your forehead, but hey, it's just a question of taste - whatever floats your boat!

And how many BMWs do you see that are black and donÕt have black leather seats? user added image

To render out the HD version I just went to my render globals and changed the size settings from NTSC to HD 1080.

https://images.google.com/images?um=1...eather%20seats - This link on google images has BMW's with other colored leather seats, maybe not for that specific car, but it does happen

nice car

what a great car to buid but im not to washy on the art work / flame. The render itself looks flat, needs a background / depth. The flames look harsh, sharp edges & needs a bit of transitions / blending otherwise it looks more like a sticker then paint. I would also work on tone such as the black tires & the black body have the same tone relationship, any type of metal has some transitions light / reflections. I would use gradients. A black ipod is a good example, to see the detail yoiu use blends of tone or values such as black, lighter black. Doing so will bring out the colors more so the edge of the door looks seperate & not as one piece to the car body. You cant see the door handle so work on value of blacks & see what you can do. The hood is another example, it looks like one piece to the bumber due to lack of values of black as well as the seats seem tobe darker then the body which may be due to shadows on lights then the color itself, some highlights would be nice.

As a model, the car turned out pretty good, its the texturing/lighting/renderin that needs a bit of tweaking. Good luck with this one.
