mustang 2005 again...

[NightEye]

If you have a decent pc, just choose 192,192,192 as backdrop colour, change the material to something like 160,163,167, turn on radiosity and wait
Set your camera to about 10km distance, and zoom in as far as needed (sometimes 10000, instead of the default 3.2).
I can make a scene for you if you want.

If you don't have the time, do it without radiosity. Same backdrop/materials, and just rotate your distantlight (or area, but distant is easier) for every camera.
You could, if you want, turn on edges (except "other edges"). This is the result: http://www.smcars.net/forums/showthread.php?t=17772

wow what a fast answer dude!!!! and whan a nice method is that!!

i think i saw something about orthographic render in some lw9 videos.... but there should be a nice plugin to do that... is not that complicated i guess.... u know... 3dsmax ad maya do that since very early versions....

[NightEye]

Yup, makes things a lot easier!

Here's the scene btw, just put in your model and you're done

[doncha_magoso]

i think i'll make my orthos once i finish the exterior... soon

that would be cool.. but meanwhile here's the front finished... well.. the materials are not that good enough.. and need to check the part where the bumper is near the left pannel/wheel arc

here it is

hope you like it ;

[punxva]

its looking good i just dont think the red on red is doing it any justice, try using a dark green if your gonna do a red car, since its the complimentary color . try a render like that for me, just to see if it helps any.

[doncha_magoso]

maybe this blue could help...

[zac_3d]

looks great but you should maybe work on the scene a tiny bit more mak it dd to the look of the car not detract your attention from the car.

[Silent][Moebius]

hmm in the photography section someone just recently posted some nice photos of cars he made. maybe you could adopt that style for your mustang

I like it

Please check this edge, it looks a bit deep in your model
Also check the surroundings of those lights in the grille, they look a bit off

thanks a lot NE!!

I'll check that one once i'm at home

[doncha_magoso]

sorry... no updates for today

[revelli]

sweet, but the inner headlights material need more work, and they need glass on top of them
and i would prefere better antialiashing on the next renders

[doncha_magoso]

i'll try to get that materials better dude... it's just that i don't know what happened, since it's the same material for all the headlights...

and about the outside glass.. it's there... but not really seen ... not too reflective (well... not reflective at all for how it looks...)

and for the AA... well... i guess i'll set a higer AA when it's almost finished.... right now these are quick previews of it... and renders take much longer with medium AA... not to say when it's at high AA...

[doncha_magoso]

here's a little update


started working on the middle/rear section of the car

[doncha_magoso]

new render

and after photoshop
