It looks really good; matter of fact I have alot of hig res reference pictures. Lemme know if your interested i'm one of the others workin on the R8 (Up for some friendly competition?)

It looks good so far. But renders are a little bit too dark, so you really can't see lower parts. You should lighten them up a little bit.

I've started a hype here haha!

Model looks good, I really like your headlights!
Mind sharing how you did them? (I always have troube making lights)

As LOST said, do the nice rendering later, just keep the images nice and bright for now

Poly allignment looks pretty good too

Regarding what he said below is a perfect reference photo

benji2007: Im always up for some challenge dude it also keeps up the motivation.

peacetaker: basically you just model every little detail. That way you gain most control over your final render.

pedro.malheiro: Actually those areas has caused me alot of problems and Im still trying to get them look right, but I will eventually get it right

Anyway here is an update. ive lightend up the scene a bit with 4 light spheres in each corner of the car, giving it a nice touch

[pedro.malheiro]

its going great....and good luck to fix that problems

Friendly competition? sounds like a wonderfull idea. Highlighted in the red is the only thing I can see; the one further up: it looks like the corner is pinching where it meets. The one below it: the venting if you look at reference pictures you'll see it doesn't extend that far back. I might be wrong but you might want to take a lot at that
