here u go nighteye.

i think ive got the basic shape down... now just for the lights and the honeycomb grill.

i was thinking to apply a uvmap to the lights with a simple modeled interior for reflections.... i think it will work... i dont know cos ive never done this before ;P

pls have a look and see where im out :wink:

[Hellraiser3d]

pls comment and if anyone has any tips on how to do this properly id appreciate it ;p

i used a uvw map of a photo of the lights.

i have nice big gaping holes where the honeycomb will be.... that is of course, if my poor pc can handle computing them

The bottom of your lights need to be straighter, and also, they could be mapped better

And I'm not sure about the side of the back-end.. It looks like it's a bit wobbly, should be smoother

Nice work nontheless, it really improved!

[Hellraiser3d]

im having a little trouble with the honey comb grill...
i tried the method that bjolletts gave in the tutorial section....

Sorry guys for the lack of updates... i been reaall busy at work

Here is a test render im working on... i think the lighting is really fake though, its supposed to be the car under a street lamp at night. Any suggestions i would appreciate!

(im stil struggling a bit with the damn honeycomb grill.. but i will get it!!! and ill fix the texture on the rear lights)

[Freefall]

Pretty good render, maybe you can use some GI for realism, don't know if that's on the free version of Vray though...

[NightEye]

The render looks sweet
Just that white plane on the ground... What is it?

[T-Shine]

Looks like a stripe that divides the lanes of the road heh

[Hellraiser3d]

Hehe yeah its supposed to be the white stripe of the lanes ( i suck at texturing trying to improve on it heh)

i will try if vray free has GI... otherwise ill try use mental ray.... but i dont like mental ray's skylight

unless soemone can show me how to use the 2 together properly for skylight shadows

[Hellraiser3d]

Hey, Sorry for lack of updates... ive been trying all sorts of different things with the rear light textures...

but i just cant get thjat realistic effect :?

If Anyone has a link to a Rear light turorial, or some tips to give me pls help me out

Im using max6 ... please guys.
