Those BMW Angel Eyes
Continuing my work on this car, I’ve added the headlights today. Apparently that’s what those rounded headlamps are called on a BMW – Angel Eyes.
And since a few of you asked about what lighting system I used, here is the setup I am using:
Sorry to disappoint. Yes the car is lit with just a single Hemi light source. (Take that David!) The rest is done with Ambient Occlusion using an HDR image texture.
Another test render
I added a few details during my spare time yesterday. Exterior modeling is now complete except for the rim, headlights, foglights and tail lights.
Car modeling excercise: first render
The reason why it’s such a tight crop (and lit with low key light) is because the rest of car aren’t detailed yet. :D
Edit: first beauty render
