Vehicle: still: Audi A8

[true_to_XSI]

that is amazing very clean
hope to see the car in an animation
great job!!!!

[TheRainKnight]

it's awesome !! very nice job.

how did you manage the blury reflections in the car ? it's nice. :applause:

[Voursez]

Sweeet...Looks really nice...

[mwkmn]

Hey, no photographs are allowed :shame:

Just joking!

One of the greatest works I've seen up to date!

Great job! :beer:

One question: Is that women inside the car modelled, too?

[needed]

that's very nice, man ! absolutely great ! :buttrock: :buttrock:

[Onno]

Brilliant images!

Truelly great.

[DC2002]

amazingly clear!!! very very nice!

and thanks for the info about where to get the tutorials!

[cleric]

very nice, very realistic.. i thought you posted your reference images at first sight ;-))

well only thing which seems a bit "wrong" is the back of the car.. dont know what exactly it is but it looks not 100% realistic, i think it is the backlights

but all in all, very amazing,... one of the best CG pictures i've ever seen

greets

[imageflood]

awesome work! The only thing I think needs a quick tweak is the side mirrors... I dunno what it is about them... maybe just tweak their angle in relation to the car...

good stuff! :eek:

[elevationson]

thats very slick, Sell that shit to Audi

[Daniel]

Hi!
Very nice model!
I would tweak the materials a litle bit more.

The Light Cornes (head and taillights) are a litle to sharp.

Last point, i can't see the headlight cleaning system (a bump maps should be enough), check your ref pics.

Cya.

[Wolf-R]

Thanks for your comments !

@true to xsi: I'm still working on the animation ( I need a renderfarm lol ;) )

@the Rain Knight: the blurry reflexions are from the "planes" ( with treemapping on it ) on the opposite side of the car. I linked the camera to the moving car. So the complete enviroment is moving ( motionblurred ) for the camera and also for the reflexions.

@mwkmn: yes, the woman in the car is also modeled ( SDS too )-- the plan is to create an animation, therefore I need a 3D model.

@onno : thanks for the blueprints :-)

The backlights look different on every reference image so it's difficult to make them look right.

I think the side mirror is ok -- I looked at my refs and I can't see any noticeable difference ;)

@daniel: "the car freak" I think this is the right description for you ;) thanks for your hint at the missing cleaning system.

thanks for the compliments:beer:

[big]

I don't like the front and rear lights other then that it's pretty awesome.

[mwkmn]

As for the taillights, I suggest you make the red part darker and decrease its saturation, and make the white part also darker then give it a little yellowish colour.

[TheRainKnight]

So the complete enviroment is moving ( motionblurred ) for the camera and also for the reflexions.

ok for that point :-). But as i try this kind of rendering, i got blured environnement and non blured reflections....because with BRazil for example the motion blur is calculated after image calculation. So reflections are not affected by motion blur calculation !

Is that specific to V Ray ? thx a lot !

[Mcf]

ist echt eine geniale arbeit wolf :) ist dir super gelungen und wirkt total photorealistisch :thumbsup:

ich weiss nicht ob mir mein auge einen streich spielt oder nicht, jedoch find ich das am ersten "foto" :D die reflektionen des asphalts zu "detailiert" sind und kein motion blur is.

weiss nicht ob mir das nur so vorkommt.
ansonsten kann ich nur sagen - ich freu mich auf die animation :wavey:

[graffb]

This is the photo?! :-)
Very good job! Car paint... Nice nice...

[dimitrios_c]

I agree that the back lights are not up to the photorealistic standard of the rest of the car.

[Nosalis]

hmmmmm, ... this is really nicely done. Great materials for the chrome. Is this arnold render or something else ? :)

[Wolf-R]

Hy to everybody !
thanks for comments !


@mwkmn: thanks for your tips !

@the Rain Knight: I think V-Ray renders the motionblur correctly. At V-Ray you can set the GI Samples, Geometrie and Imagesamples for the Motionblur. So the GI also "motionblurred" ;)

@mcf: die Reflexionen der Strasse müßten correkt sein. Die Strasse hat nur sehr wenig Contrast, deswegen gehen die Unregelmäßigkeiten der Strasse am schwarzen Lack verloren.

c&c welcome

[M-Khalil]

It's very reality !!!
Very nice work...

[ReSeT]

Amazing realistic. If I had seen this image somewhere on the web, I wouldn't have noticed that's a computer generated Image.

Great Work :applause:

[xmg_cgeden]

Great work!

[Banshee]

Hi!
So sieht man sich wieder :)

As I already said in the german 3dsmax Forum: Great work, nothing more to say than: :thumbsup:

[Dark Soul]

:buttrock:

omg looks so real

[Garma]

waah :surprised adding the wire is a VERY good idea with pictures like this :surprised

Your best move was to put it in an environment

[SimonReeves]

veeeerrrryyy nice renders the model looks very tight

one thing I thought of, perhaps change the sun light so it has area shadows, so there arent so sharp

great job though:thumbsup:

[Idi]

love it, great job:thumbsup:

[Wolf-R]

Thanks for your positive feedback !:beer:

I think i will wait for further comments to rework the scene a little bit ;)
@ banshee: danke dir banshee dein scorpion is aber auch ein Hit-- noch kein Stammgast in .de und gratuliere dir zu deinem Award
;)

c&c still welcome

[IronSRS]

Hi Wolf,
great work!
Iam just waiting to see it at the front page and in the hall of fame of 3dmax.de ;)

Bye
SRS

[Cararan]

Wow thats very clean. Very nice.

[ApocGFX]

Wolf-R, I would love to know what your material settings were for the car's paint, what HDRI map/settings you used, and what other light sources you had in the scene...

I have been using VRay for almost a month now and I can't get HDRI renderings even CLOSE to this and boy would I sure like to know how :)

Any info would be most appreciated.

-Andrew

[mehdianim]

Looks really sweet though i foudn the front picture less convincing thant the rear. You already have the good comments explaining how to fix it.
Looks great though. Very clean.

[Wolf-R]

@ ApocGFX: I used a hdri Mapping at 1.0
two lights - one for the Sun mult 0.4 ( only diffuse ) and one for the specs only at 0.8 at the same position where the sun is located on the Hdri
For the carpaint i used the multilayer"shader"

@simon reves: I always using normal shadows for the Sun. (outdoor scenes ) I will test it with area shawows ;)

@SRS: hallo grüß dich:beer:
bin ja noch nicht einmal Stammgast lol aber deine Idee wär ein Hit ;)

@garma: what do you mean ?:lightbulb

thanks for your feedback
c&c welcome

[Skyraider3D]

Well lildragon, what are you waiting for?
You can bring on that CGTalk Award! :D

That is absolutely stunningly realistic. Almost makes it feel a bit pointless though - I mean you could've taken a photograph! :p :rolleyes:

What resolution was the HDRI map???

Did you use any VRay lights other than the HDRI skylight or are the two you talked about regular max direct lights???

What do you mean by "multilayer'shader'"???? If anything I'd probably be most interested in finding out how you setup that material :)

Thanks for the reply

-Andrew

[onscreen]

amazing!!!
this is really a good yet clear render i have ever seen. And vrroom! i can feel the car is moving fast :P

[Wolf-R]

Hy

@skyraider3d: thanks :beer:

@apocGFX: I used the standard max mat´s -- und select the "multi-Layer" at the shader basic params.
at multi layer Basic params diff level 95 Roughness 5
First speculkear level about 110 gloss 99
second spec level about 10 gloss 80
a fallof map, (type: perpendiicular/Parallel direction:viewing direction) as mask for the reflexions
the lights where regular Max lights with Vray shadow ( direcional )

i hope this helps :lightbulb

@onscreen: thank you ----- this car is moving and my "real" car is under repair :thumbsdow must buy a new one i think - sometimes i think it would be better to be virtual lol :surprised

[wgreenlee1]

Very cool!
