FXWars! THE RACE!: Yann Goument, Contemporary Racing

#1

hi
long time i had not played with dynamics, so i will try something with this challenge.hope i will be able to finish it…:slight_smile:
for now i start alone, but maybe a friend will come help me later.
i take the car i finished last month and i will try to make a comtemporary racing style.
so, after playing all the afternoon, here s what i have so far… keyframe for both, and dynamics after the impact for the “flying” blue one…

wow looking good! the animation is nice and the dynamics from the orange car are looking promising too!

#3

little update.
i have work trajectories and camera, and a little the track model.
will remake the dynamics tonight as i think the car motion seems ok.
wip!
C&C welcome

(quicktime 7 - 6.3 Mo)

#4

nice camera work, looks just like tv with the angles and such. you could do some heat from the track with these kinds of angels, might be cool, looking forward to more!

#5

thx for comment JDM3dee and destruct007 :slight_smile:
seems a good idea for the heat from the track. but really dont know how to make such effect…
thx for the idea! :slight_smile:
on the first test, the orange doenst have dynamics.
now i add it for the calcul, so the both car finish with dynamics. think the motion seems ok for the cars. i will work on the particle effect now.
wip!

Looks good so far! :slight_smile: Are you considering zooming the camera in for the crash? It’s hard to make out the details of the crash with the big wide shot.

#7

yep tibes, its done for the camera. and that s better :slight_smile:

so i export the first car motion to 3dsmax, now i will start to add the smoke effect and other part explosions. i need to clean up again the cars motion, but think that will be done soon :smiley:
so a quick render to see how that could look.
wip!
C&C welcome :slight_smile:

#8

wow! Your almost done.

Looks very nice. The road looks to me to be too wide, and makes the cars look like small toys.

#9

thx mustang.
think you re right, will start the final trach modl tonight, and will reduce it a little.

#10

WoW, Nice Render. Cars seem they are missing a little gravity on the crash or something though. Still going to work on the dynamic?

#11

Just a reminder:

One Month To Go (MAY 22th): FXWARS THE RACE!

#13

so after a break of 2 weeks because of holidays… :smiley: , i will try to finish before the deadline…
so, i just making the easier part, add texture to the car… :slight_smile:
here s the first one, the black one will go on tonight after work i think.

wip!

#14

so, the second one.
i take the bugatti colors who seems to be ok with the beast… :slight_smile:
not really finish, but its on the way! :smiley:
wip!

#15

I can safely say that I quote a big chunk of people reading this thread when I say,

WOW nice model!

-R

#16

Ditto what Roberto said. Those are awsome models, those colors work so well. Awsome job, cant wait to see the end result!

Edit: I forgot to mention, those mirrors are great!:slight_smile:

#17

I agree. Those models are very nice.

The lighting is really nice as well. What is your setup?

#18

thx for comments guys :slight_smile:
that was the easiy part, as the model was finished just before this fxwar, so just some map work…
but have some problem to render all i want, hope that will be ok for the 22…
optimisation, optimisation! :smiley:

Mustang 9 > for the lighting its 4 vray light, placed on the angle, with a simple white studio.

a quick render of the “finished” orange car, between two layers render…
for sure the full animation is not as clean as a white studio rom… argghh!!..
anyway, here is it.

#19

oh man. I would love to have that in the garage. You got any nice big 1280x1024 images. I would love to display as wallpaper.

thx PanzerMKZ.for now im trying to finish this animation but after this, i will make some bigger render of the 2 racing car. if you want i will post them :slight_smile:

here is a render of the first frame(one of the few i have pretty finish, i mean with backdrop layer, wheels etc…). if i have time i will add more trees, grass would be cool too but for now… :smiley:
wip!
