erik: the photobackground photo is the Department of Justice in Hamburg. Typical old style architecture for this city. As soon as i made the nesessary pics for the reflection maps an officer came to investigate me
I am rerendering the backview again in desktop resolution. But that needs a lot of time (8-9hours?)
Seeing this makes me depressed that my modeling that my modeling skills are not up to par. Oh, did I mention- excellent work! And thanks for making me feel real bad on top of it all!
8-9 hours? You wireframe doesn't look that intense. The tires on the other hand do- I'm sure you could reduce the polys on that- at least the back faces. What kinda machine are you on?
Irridiance map needs so long with all the glas in it. Also it doesnt help that there are a lot of glass parts behind other glass.
Was a bit lazy doin materials, so nothing is optimized. Also it doesnt help that i need to calculate the irridiance map every time (free version)
Rendering the car without the glas is only 30% of the needed time.
But im really thinking in buying Vray.
Great stuff! How long did it take to model? I'm just being curious about which technique would be the fastest to achieve that level of precision and detail.
The car took me 7 days. 4 days working on details and setting up the 1st render (the composition)
1 day i lost because i had to redo the engine hood.
Most is done by shift draggin edges and moving vertices for the control cage. I used splines as guides to place my vertices.
After that i was working with meshsmooth and edge chamfering to add details and sharpen edges.
did u make some changes to the model since the first photo?
Around the index lamp the body looks a bit starnge but on the later images, looks okay.
Great stuff. Actually all of my hounour to the poly modelers
I just cant understand how you could do this going by edges,vertexes moving them etc. I did, but since nurbs/zbrush poly, I never wish to get back.
Anyway this is realy nice car. Reminds me my childhood when we played those car-card games, an my favaour car (I think it was a kind of alfa romeo) looked similar to this one.
These cars are hard to find in a good state (let alone this nice show model state), but not expensive. I think you can find one for about 5000 to 6000 euro.
