First test with lights and materials, a few issues to resolve but am happy with the result as i normally suck with lighting…

any comments … ? good … bad … ? give it to me

model looks good, but I don’t like lighting and materials…and the rendering is too dark…
try less reflect on carpaint

post two times…sorry

god, i see too many of those things around here, the material render is a little dark and it glowing at the bottom that’s kind of weird unless your ride has LEDs on the undercarriage

@waaf - thanks for the feedback, have reduced the reflect and increased light

@tyrant monkey - no LED’s indeed, have fixed that. Your Austin Cooper is awesome you are an inspiration. I had the same problem as you, was half way finished with a camaro then realised that it had been killed so decided to go for something old and decided on the good ole golf. Thanks for the feedback,

It look better, but there something stil wrong with the carpaint…what rendering engine are you using? I see no shadows under the wheels…

I am using blender internal …

try changing AO settings

its not very bright (unless that’s what your after) but to lighten it up try using a sun lamp
