Hi, im quite bad at materials and textures so could i have some help.

I was wondering how all you guys that make cars get that wonderful looking paint effect, like so there is light above and you get a nice white shine in the right places. What materials are you using to get a paint effect?

A break down of your materials would be great.
Thanks
Kyle

Is there any link exchange kind of thing around? I was just thinking maybe we could start one. You can put in links maybe with a short description and everyone has quick and easy access to searching for what they want...

That's what I have mind, a little description would have more efficiency for searching.
