3dconnexion challenge entry

[alias_marks]

Hey vray guru's. Thought I'd share a little something I did for the recent 3dconnexion challenge. Nothin fancy but had a lot of fun trying out a couple of the new vray 2.0 features.

Car crash done with cloth sim. Render out of vray was the car (via tweaking in RT, which I love!). Everything else composted in PS including broken glass. Tried to work with nvidia's new physX simulator, but wasn't a big fan.. so opted for PS.

comments and crits most welcome.



Happy holidays!

Outstanding..
I wonder, how did you do the simulation with cloth sim..

Thanks Andrian,

I'll post some settings later on if you like, but basically, it was the cloth sim system (*not reactor). I took the body of the car and started with a burlap preset, modified it a bit and just dropped onto a ground plane, then moved into place according to my camera. I added the kink in the bar on the top in photoshop.

FYI, the car model was provided by 3dconnexion... did some minor modeling changes on the wheels.

Looks great! I love it!

Definitely an interesting approach to the car mash-up.
