First Composite

[Billabong]

Hey guys,

This is a Ferrari I modeled last year and up until now has always been in a studio type setup. So last week I saw that Thomas Suurland is giving away a free sample HDRI. So I thought I would try it out. I have done about 37,000 renders to try and get this right. So please tell me what you think

im getting the impression of a small 'toy' not a car.

its too dark too.

Thanks werticus, Yeah I got that same feeling after staring at it for a while, Im going to take out the dof and I'm working on the reflections/lighting right now.

Thanks again

hello Billabong,
I dont get that feeling, I thin the scale looks fine. I think the DOF is beleivable too. I think the only issue you may have is in your materials, the caar-paint looks a little off.
Composition-wise, I think you could choose a more dramatic viewpoint for the car. When shooting a Ferrari you dont want it to look like a casual snapshot. Something that shows off its lines, do you watch Topgear? They know how to shoot a car.....

Thanks Tommy, I thought I would post one more more of this view before I tried to change anything

id made the car a lighter colour perhaps for this HDRI backdrop.

hello,
i think its the camera position that evokes the feeling as if looking at toycar....i would prob tweak the scale of it more respecting the road and the hdri

the front of the car could use a bit more modelling

bets regards

i'd say lower the angle a little bit, like 180cm height? just my 2 cents
