Well... about the side mirrors... Yes... I´m making them again, but just the part where it fits with the door...

about the grate...

it´s a texture and a transparency map applied... the same with the front and the back...

BTW and as a clue... my license ID keyword is on the plate, so there are the first letters of my name and my birthday... (also a little reference of my country´s flag...)

take care guys!!!

(i´m working on the windows frame rubbers... those that hold the glasses...)

well.. finally an update
 

here you can see some interiors...

awesome stuff !
i'd kill for a screenshot at the materials used in this scene...any chance of making me happy ? i'm just curious..mine looks good on a side and realy burned on the other...

well... i just set the color i like (obviously the blue) and make it 10% reflective but with an sperical+ray traced enviromen (crome.tga at the images/reflections folder at lighwave`s instalation folder) and that`s it... u don`t need to set up a scenery backdrop and just take care of ilumination... Use some backdrop radiosity (play with it) and I think that`s all...

take care man!
thanks for posting!

well...

just a little render with different color...

looking good the red colour kind of gets lost with the floor maybe trying different colours how did you make the lights can you point me to any tutorials because i am struggling with that bit on my BMW

well... at this point I'm gonna say that there's no light in this scene... or at least not a common light...

I compose the virtual room with those white lines as luminose... about 150- 200% luminose, also I turn interpolated radiosity on and set it to 20% (rad intensity) and 30% (ambient intensity) and that's it... you can add some luminose meshes and point them towards you car... be sure to turn "shading noise reduction" on... and at least low AA... read you later guys!

i meant the lights on the car, you know the head lights but thanks for the lighting setup anyway
Thanks
Rob
