I think the Cadillac is outstanding, nicely done

thank you

The cadillac is good but you need to sort out the reflection on the bottom of the wheel. The problem with an hdri is that anything in close proximity is reflected unrealistically.
It is usually best to use some sort of stand in geometry. I can see this is in the WIP section though... well done

Out of interest where is the hdri from?

thank you bograt
in the first image i make plane with asphalt to get better shadow and avoid reflection under wheels
but i will rerender it and try to find the best method and maxwell need option to render object with shadow and transparent background
the hdri from : hdrmaps.com 8€ ( hdri + backplates )

The biggest thing holding the images back from being spectacular, IMHO, is the white fringe around the edge of the car. Most noticeable at the left side of the Cadillac.

And the tires at the bottom are too bright.

keyshot and iray have good feature when use hdr and backplate ; if maxwell will have this feature that reduce errors
i will make better than that in the next wip

renderings look nice! I think the model needs to be adjusted on the first shot? It feels like there is no weight to the car and that the suspension is fully extended, so it's sitting a little high. That and also the bottom of the tires seem like that would be flat a little bit from the weight. Right now they seem completely round, so it feels a little floaty

i will rerender it and try to get better than that ; i render thes two car with other car in one night with postproduction to test the quality of the model and the hdri
i will also search real photos of the cars
