A tribute to the only car from Japan that ever won in Le Mans. Also the only car ever with a rotary engine to win.
Rendered with V-Ray 3.60 on CPU. Please make sure to watch in full res. Critics and comments welcome.
These are fantastic.
Really nice details in the dirt and grime on the car. Must’ve taken a while.
The only think I’m not totally sold on is the motion in the dead front view - Feels a bit more like a radial blur than a natural camera motion - but then I guess that wasn’t your doing anyway.
The CG’s really impressive.
Cheers,

Hey John,
thanks for the comments! Feel free to drop an appreciation over at Behance 
Yeah, I wasn’t involved in any of the post steps, this was done by a good friend and ex-collegue of mine. He also did the dirt textures I used for the rubbery debris on the front of the car. The scratches and general “grimyness” were done totally procedural. Rendertimes were a bit longer then usual, because the highlights together with the scratches needed some higher settings to get clean.
However, I agree the motion is not totally spot on, but it looked better then the straight linear blur we got out of Virtual Rig.
Regards
Oliver
Done! Didn’t realise I hadn’t already clicked it!
With the blur, I think it’s the windows of the skyscrapers in the distance that are bothering me. Feels like there should be minimal blur on them, if any.
But it’s only a little detail in some really cool shots.
Cheers,
John
No car guys here I feel. Sad 
Amazing work! Is the environment all 3D as well?
Very nice!
