hi to all
very very nice Thomas!!! it is not distinguished from the real!!!
I can ask to you that prog you have used in order to create the file .mov of the new beetle in your site? quicktimevr?another?
excused my english..

not

[marc]

Just Great; nothing more to say!!

Just some further questions :


- About lighting in general: is that just skylight and nothing more?
- How do you light the interior? Setting up a light inside, or hiding the
glass and useing photons for sec bounces?
Or do you use a standard Mat for glas?

thanks in advance

Oops CAD data, hmmm. I guess for some people on this board you will not be considered an artist. Well to bad for them . I think this is very very good. I like the angle too. Makes the car look dynamic, although it drives like a grandmother.

mc-escher - Almost no meshes.

Notoriousbug - It's called VR Object Worx.

Marc - There is a sklight and then an omni to light up some of the interior. It's always a problem to get good light both on the exterior and interior to make flybys trough the car, but on this car it ofcourse helps it's a convertible.

UBIKmh - Can't say, I've never driven one but I saw WRC and Markus' driving didn't exactly look like my grandmother :P

it a great render Suurland but i do think if we all had accsess to the Cad data from the car manufactures we could all make a few nice mats and apply them.
Yes it is a great render but that is due to a great model.
No disrespect Suurland because you are very good at what you do.

Well i disagree. It's not just a few mats, and many people here can't create such great mats like on this car. Plus there's the choice of camera angle, and the tweaking of how and where the reflections of the environment will fall, which is not easy imo. If you use this img as a reference, you will maybe be able to recreate it, but starting from scratch you will have much more problems.

I agree: where the reflections fall is truly a challange! ..And Thomas always achieved a great result!

I guess that's why ad-agencies hire photographers who charge $4000 a day. After all it's just a matter of pointing the camera the right way.... I suppose even a trained monkey could take the pictures

[UBIKmh]

You'd be surprised how hard it is to do a studio photograph of a new car. That's probably why they hire Suurland.

I'm not surprised at all, I work with pro photographers all the time and appreciate their skills. I guess should have added a little <sarcasm> tag to the statement

Congratulations Suurland! Simply amazing work
