So here's my first ever attempt with rendering. Up till now I've only used the internal renderer (Blender Render) and never for a finished product but since Cycles is going to be the end game, I will be concentrating on that. This is a wip render more than anything; I just wanted to get this rolling off my desk cuz its driving me nuts. The model is also my first foray into a finished car. The front half design was almost exactly what I had envisioned. I have spent two months and still not satisfied with the rear section but other than refining this is what I'm going with.
Spent all day with Cycles and still can't get even close to what a good car finish should be. It seems if you're using Cycles renderer, ya gotta learn nodes.
ANy pointers are appreciated.
