Welcome to SMC, I hope you'll enjoy your stay.

It's a great model you achieved so far. I really like the level of details you've put into it. Your third render (the one on white background) is excellent.

The only things I'm concerned with are :
- The gear shifter is a bit too inclined toward the front : the driver can't put his fingers on it.
- The whole car looks too narrow. It's especially visible on the 4th picture : you should scale it a bit.

I'm looking forward to see more progress on it. Keep us updated !

Impressive render, really. I love the red light in the background.

Some critics however :
- The rims need more depth IMHO.
- The rim shader needs to be more contrasted, it's a bit flat.
- The font used on front license plate is unnatural, maybe you should use thicker font and larger text.
- The floor is a bit weird : it almost looks wet, which is very uncommon for studio shot.

Keep us updated, you're doing a great job !

It's better for rim reflections, 5 stars from me too. But the rim still looks a bit flat IMHO. And the other critics still stand

Thanks for looking my work .
@spitty3d: no, studio setup's very simple, just Vraylight
@tom120934: I'm sure the next studio will be better for the rim, your comments always welcome.
@ericktorio: yes, ofcourse. You're right, the ground's a little dark.

Some updates for the front rear, I'll update the back rear soon. C&C plz

These render are really lovely.

When I'm talking about the rims needing more depth, I was thinking "you need to fix the model, not only shader".

I still dislike the license plate, it ruins your wonderful model IMHO.

Your sidewall is nice, but I'm not sure about accurracy concerning the Yokohama Advan Neova AD07

Again you really deserve your 5 stars. Stunning work !

Thanks for care my work, Tom.
Yeah, you're right the rim need more depth, I'll fix it for the next studio. And about license plate, yeah, it looks not good, but...hm...Ok, I'll check it again.
And these're some more updates for today.
Thanks for your time guys

I think it looks great
Just the one thing that catches my eye immediately, is the gearknob. The leather around it (at the bottom) looks quite bad.
Nice render, although a bit dark


If you can't stand the heat, don't walk into the fire...
