#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

#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.

#20

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!


#21

Man that looks very nice.

The grass could be done better.

What I would do is create a mix between some grass, and dried dead grass. Use a gradient mapped in “object xyz” to blend between the two grass. So that at the top of the hill its different then at road level. Use a little noise as well to mix the two grasses.

This will help define the slops better, and look a little more realistic.


#22

That looks good so far. But what about colour on the track? I relooked at the track and you have marks on the tarmac. Looks good but what about sponser boards? Also what about dirt or race damage on the cars already?

#23

thx guys :slight_smile:

for sure many things to do…
you re right for the grass. would really need better surface. and the same for some sponsor…maybe i will have time to make few more layers, but for now dont even know if i will be able to finish it… aghhrrr… :slight_smile:


#24

I hope you get to finish. This has some awsome potential. By the way, I saw your website, youuve got some awsome work up there.


#25

so, after a week end rendering all i can, i think i will be off for this fxwar…
i will try to render the last layers in the evening after work(if the render i have send this morning are finish…) but think will be too late… :smiley:
so, no secrets, the time i loose in the middle is the time i need now… think i need few days again to really finish all i want to have a “correct” animation(even if i made many error everywhere! :slight_smile: )

anyway, hope many people will be able to post their final animation tonight.

@Arrrgh4life : thx man. for the awesome potential, i’m really not sure, as i have many error on models, surfacing, alpha render etc… :smiley:

ps: i like me too those mirrors… :wink:


#26

It wouldn’t be the same contest if you didn’t enter. :frowning:

You have until midnight. I hope that’s enough time.


#27

arf, so, im definitively off for this one.
that take way longer than i though for the render of this day, and i always doesnt have all the smoke/part effect at the end, not all the track rendered etc…
so off for me! :smiley:

bad management of my time for sure…will be better for the next one(i hope… )
good luck for all the people who have it done! :slight_smile:
