I'm going to try a car this time

[Bryan K]

Thanks Dave!

Still have a few more details to finish before I do the first render.

Do know where I can get a good city street HDRI? It has to be free. I can find a couple of parking garages, but that's all I can find.

OK - that looks good to me. IMO it kind of brings the car alive.

I just updated with a second picture in previous post.

Thanks!

Again, JMO, I like the look of the car better in the first image but like the setting in the 2nd image. Maybe the is a way to combine the best features of the two images now. Again, JMO, rendering brings out the good features of your work.

Wish I could visualize and produce something like your car.

[Bryan K]

Thanks again Dave!

It takes the right HDRI. I'm rather limited with what I have available. I'm still pleased with both of them and these are just quick test renders.

Quick test render in Raylectron with stock HDRI.

Yep - like them both too. Was trying to push you a little.

Your little car is looking great Bryan. My vote is you do a render of you jumping your little car over the Grand Canyon .

Thanks tuna!

Very neat renders but, how about jumping the car over the head of a car park attendant writing a ticket?

[Bryan K]

Alright you guys!

Still have a ways to go. The test renders show me the body panels are not smooth enough and there are other design changes needed.

[ntxdave]

OK - just saw the third image and the lighting in it is what I was thinking of.

Given the other comments, maybe you and Elan need to figure out how to add some wings for those leaps.

Thanks Dave!

It looks awesome to me, great work!
I do not know how Rayelectron handles HDRI but there are CC0 maps on HDRI Haven https://hdrihaven.com/.

And that's it! Done for now.

Not perfect but I learned a lot.

Final renders on the gallery page.
