Hy advan! Very good progress (still some inaccuracies but It's your choice to correct them or not).
BTW, I post some reference pictures of the door and my critics of some elements.

Incredible update! This car is a favorite of mine, If your only 14 and this is what you put out I hate to see you when you get older if you still pursue this stuff

lol, i hope to keep doing this longer. As long as i enjoy it and increase my pace, i'll be here forever But who knows, i still got lots of time to decide what i want to do. *edit* some small progress. Been doing other stuff lately so i couldn't get as much as i liked. Seats are in progress. No pics yet *edit again* some boredom rendering. Rims are BBS something Viennas. lol.

the tires and the red plastic are the only things holding this car back IMO...

The tires, IMO should be one color, instead of having the print be a lighter shade of gray, and they should be nice and shiny if they're brand new, the only thing that lets you notice the print is the fact they're protruding out from the tire wall.

*ref pic to show what I'm talking about*


The red plastic at the door has a white insert in your reference pictures that doesn't seem to be in your model, and, if you're using scanline rendering, you should come in to the materials for the red plastic, and adjust the filter color to a more red hue, so that your plastic piece actually tints what's behind it more realisically.

wow those are some ugly rims, not my taste at all but i agree with mmm, tires need to be a bit darker

[advan]

thanks multimediaman. Here's another one. Couldn't really get that glossy look. lol @ low polyness

@younglion - lol yeah. A friend wanted them and they were simple to make too.

[pedro.malheiro]

you are doing a fantastic work... congrat.. i like the tire material...

[multimediaman]

the glossiness in the reference picture I posted is really more of a reflection than a specular highlight. Tighten up the highlight size (make it smaller), and then add some nice reflection there. definitely don't overdo the reflection though, and make sure you use fall-off for the reflectivity. you don't want it looking like a chrome wheel. And also I'd recommend that you don't use any reflectivity on your tire tread, and perhaps lighten the material some, and add some scuff markings on the tread. This will make it look like the car has actually had some travel on the tires, rather than being air-lifted into the scene with a helicopter.
