Hi guys,
I decided to use one of the hdri-location hdri’s and backplate. Hope you like the new render. Great set of hdri’s by the way !
Pretty smart looking! Did you model the car or is it an off-the-shelf product?
Cheers. The car was from a previous project where I used CAD data.
the car looks good but the depth of field is wrong. looks like you did it in post.
I did do it in post. Not sure what you mean by wrong ?
much, much better without DOF!
phew, much better! didn’t wan’t to say anything 
Dark
Great job!
One comment, the side doors is very dark, does not seem real.
Congratulations!
I’d rather you said something..that way I can learn 
I used a HDRI to light the whole scene. Im wondering if the plane I set the car on is possibly affecting the reflection back onto the car…It should be just reflecting the road back from the HDRI I thought..if you set the vray plane to alpha cont-1 and select matt object ?!
You must disable “visible in reflections” in object properties (vray)
A trick I do is to apply a vraymaterial w/HDRI as diffuse map to the matte ground plane - that also solves the problem
Hi Steve.. thanks for buying the location
Without DOF it’s for sure a lot better, and does look like you have an object under the car that is reflecting in the car which it shouldn’t, getting a more interesting reflection on the side should be possible.
Also I think you should work on the windows, they stand out a little bit too bright and like they are milky white, I would make them darker and maybe tint them green a little bit and then lower the reflections. And the b-pillar is bright grey, I assume it has to be black. And the rims could need some markings on the side.
Hope you are going to do some more angles

Cheers for the comments. I will definately come back to this soon and try out some different angles. Yeah, really impressed with this forest pack…I like the forest shots just on their own
I tell you what would be a nice addition to the packs…if you provided a max scene with a vray camera already setup ready for each backplate..just an idea
Yeah, I’m sure that would be nice, but that would take way too much time to make. So would have to increase the price, and I don’t wanna do that, since people buying these doesn’t necessarily use max so they shouldn’t have to pay for something they can’t use.
What I am trying to do more and more is to make some meassurement of the scene, like the width of the road so the tracking gets easier, and easier to get the correct size for the car.
Very nice work- I like the without-DOF version too
Thanks a lot
WOW really looking good, I like the car paint a lot.. top render… congrats
nice avatar btw..
