Lego Car Rerendered

This is an older model I rendered in lightflow a while ago. Some of you might remember.
Well to test a few new yafray features, I rerendered the model. Imo it looks much better than the original.

here is a 640-480 sucky compression version.
a 1024-768 link is underneath the picture (larger download)

IMHO it is incredible :o

Which new features exactly?

Stefano

I loved it the first time, and I love it even more now.

I think the DOF in the first version was a little much.

Are you using the anti-noise filter option? If so, can you share your settings on that? I seem to always get way too much noise. Could be cause I’m not setting my samples high enough or soemthing, but with older versions of Yafray, I just hit the button and bang, no noise.

Are you sure that it’s not a photo of a lego car. It looks so realistic.

Thanks. I wanted to test the HDRI (which turned out very good), the fast fresnel option (I just love fresnel), and the new AA settings (just to get familiar with).

No, I didn’t use anti-noise. I just set the samples high enough (16 for the hemilight, and 4 * 12 (=48 ) for the AA)

WoW! :o

What is this feature?

BgDM:If i were you, I’d just not use the anti-noise filter and instead trun up the raydepth of your lights. The extra render time is very much worth it…

But it doesn’t say “LEGO” on every single little bump! or at least I don’t see any on the little cylinders

Very cool. Superb improvement with the render. I’m a bit anti Yafray to be honest, but it’s renders like these that are changing my opinion.

Excellent,

Sonix.

COOL!!! its look so real!!! just like one my little brother has!!!

I don’t see anything wrong with the origional man, but the new one
sure looks great. :smiley:

hanzo: needs to learn Vafray but is scared

It’s very good work. Really. I like it very much. :o
Only one crit: buttons on the gray ground lacks any shadow. They looks like tey’re howering over the board…
