Just an update on the model I made some time ago






hi-res here (2 hour render)

8085 polies (unsubdivided, hehe)

Very nice renders. The model look really clean, do you mind sharing an unsubdivided wireframe.
The materials are nice but have a bit of a toony look to it. I don't know if that was your intetion or not.

Woah, My, Gawd

Bravo! looks awesome!
looks very sleek, and very realistic.
2 billion to the power of 5 times better than any car i've ever attempted to make.

I wish I could get it a bit more less cel-shaded looking but I can't seem to get it.

Here's the car material:

Old model before subdivision

Nice wire, pretty clean modeling.
I think the toony look is because of you low rouge value. Try raising it a bit too like 5.

that is very nice work i wish i could se anim8or like that

The modeling is great, and looks nice and clean.  I do think you could add some reinforcement around the headlights, but otherwise it's looking pretty nice.
The materials definitely do need work, they look very toon shaded.  I have two different recommendations on how you could go about making this look better:
1.  Use the ART renderer.  You can then use actual reflections, this would go for the metal rims as well (as they currently look plastic.)
2.  Use a different environment map and change the material.  Whichever method you follow, you need to change the rough value.  A 0.1 value is the main cause for the cell-shaded style.  A material I previously used is:

Ambient: 0.00
Diffuse: 1
Specular: 1
Emissive: 0
Rough: 5
Brilliance: 1

Then I have an environment map (it's a cubemap, not simply an image), that is set to 15.  Of course don't necessarily follow this exactly as I said, play around with what looks good.

Most of all I feel you need to change the rough and brilliance values (increase the rough value and decrease the brilliance value), get a better environment map (preferably a cube-map), and increase the specularity (for that metal shine).

[floyd86]

An  ART render would be great yes. Try following hiho's examples and tweak the settings abit till you like it.
I have add a nice cubemap which i use alot, have fun!

[marshallh]

Gonna try out the ART renderer tomorrow.

[Tanzim]

Very impressive and cleanly modeled as well.
Renders look great, but just one crit: your front headlights (not the orange ones) look a bit flat, and simple, perhaps adding a lamp to each hole and adding a mirror surface behind them will make it look more realistic (although I'm not sure which Mitsubishi you've modeled so I'm not exactly sure what it should look like).

Can't wait for ART render, the one posted above looks fantastic! from this angle i'd say it's the same quality as those seen in the newest Grand Theft Auto game.

[onespirit5777]

For a metal look set the brilliance to 2 or 3, specular to 1 or lower, rough 8 to 20.

Shinny paint try using glossyreflector in the attributes- rough set to 5,000 to 10,000
or reflection and lower the Kr .8 to .3

Playing with reflection will give a faster render and you can also set the rough setting to give more or less reflections. rough setting set to 8 or 1000 will work almost like glossyreflector.

Don't be afraid to play! That is my motto! Start a different file and use a sphere to render your spamles
