[Good old 80's] 1989 Lancia Delta HF Integrale 16v

Thanks.
As for lightning, I've just put couple of spotlights and thats it. I'll post some new renders (in mental ray) in a few hours.

New update.
Materials and textures still need some tweaking but I think I'm pretty close to the final version. Bumps on the front lights need some work. I still need to make materials and textures for tail lights.

[wild_coyote]

This is the final render. I didn't render rear of the car because I haven't made tail light textures. I just had so many problems with mental ray. I started with maya shaders and then when I tried to put some mr shaders the damn thing just didn't render :x . I think that my scene has some sort of bug. As addition to that I also had problems with refraction and bump of headlights.
I'm going on a short trip tomorrow so theres no more time to work on this car. But I'll continue the work next week, when I come back.

really cool work,
if you need any help with mental ray in Maya just chuck me a PM.
just as a first thought, select all objects in the scene, and go to - edit - delete by type - history.
then try rendering it... might fix the problem
(if you dont do this, the scene builds up lots of cache files, and dead nodes that still influence the meshs and textures)

make a backup of your scene before trying this though

This is really nice looking, lots of nice details, it seems accurate, though I dont know the real car well enough to be completely sure

Hi, nice one, some points still need some work in my opinion :

- front repetitors are too big
- wipers are too big, need to be thiner
- front bumper is a bit too straight (and the hood is not enough)
- the corners of the windscreen need to be sharper
- the sides of the windscreen need to be more straight
- and the door handles are a bit too big

Except that, it looks really good

Keep up the good work.

@greenvampire - thanks! History is not a problem - I delete it every 30 min. Something else is causing mr to stop rendering and I will figure out what!
@Icekid84 - thanks!
@Gillou - the model I made is from 1989. while the model on the image you posted is from later years of production. There are different versions of wipers and hood. Hood of the car you posted is very similar to the one of Integrale Evoluzzione II model (1993). As for the other things - you're right. I had low-res blueprints so it was bit harder to work. Thanks for comment!

[Gillou]

You're welcome

About the hood, I was not clear enough I think, I was just talking about the front top edge of the hood that is a bit too curvy I think. But I'm not a specialist of the Delta.

Hope it can help.
