Time to put the Fiat emblem on the nose :

Hi guys, here are two more wires, I've been tweaking the nose a lot to get closer to the original:

very precise modeling ... stunning as always ... and the logo looks great

I only have one critism with the render. I personally can't stand HDRI reflections on cars, unless those reflections are there specifically to composite the car into the corresponding background image. 99.99% of the time, car manufacturers showcase their vehicles in a studio style environment, for the simple reason that they look sexy that way. You should showcase the curves of the car by setting up some nice lighting to accent the flow.

Take a look through some car magazines, and you'll see that the classic studio environment is usually the way to go. Give it a try, and I think it will improve the render greatly.

Thanks guys!!

Hi Dilbert, yes I think you're right I will make a studio environment using one large rectangle emitter on top and two smaller emitter at the side.

In the mean time I had this one running and I've tightened up the body much more, still have a lot to do from the door back..

Here it is so far, it looks like going backward but it really isn't

Small comparison

Nice paintwork on that last one! It actually looks like a nice thick glossy paint layer.

Yes, I agree and I think that's the successful bulgy model which gives that sense.

[NicoR44]

Thanks Will!

Hey Dilbert and Tom would you guys say more like this than

[tom]
