very nice first tries!!!
Will you remove the interior polygons, when finished?

[ivox3]

Man, ..the tire evolution has been cool, ... funny too.
That last one Nico looks like manufacturer CAD.

Thanks John!

Here is a quick test render:

[Bubbaloo]

Are you planning on aging it any? As of now, it will look like it just rolled off the assembly line. Either way, it's going to be awesome, even for a Fiat...

[NicoR44]

Thanks Bubbaloo yes I will age it later on, also I'm looking for a good bump map for the text and stuff..

So far very nice progress and as expected...hehe Now one more thing about these shiny metal parts because something seems off. It could be because they behave like a mirror (or metallic coated cheap plastic) instead of real nickel plated parts. It could be due to very high Nd and/or ref0/90 relation. What are your settings for the metal parts?

[NicoR44]

Hi Tom, thanks!! , here is a screen of the setting I used:


A very simple material indeed

Maybe cos ref 90 is too white for a metal... it should relate to the reflectance 0. And you could use ior files and add some scratches. Oooh yar.

[NicoR44]

Yep that's it!

Playing a bit with the metal, and putted the wheels in just for a quick test..
I think the metal is better now, maybe a bit to much... and also different parts need different types of metal

[tom]

Yes, that looks better and maybe the rest of the magic is about spherical environment without ground. Btw, there's again roughness going on with some parts. Not good
