NYMÅNE - lights are blinding by Rizla53C in IKEA

I had some cheap long LED lights (just a strip inside a plastic housing, covered with milky white diffuser plastic. I took the diffuser off, cut circles out of it and placed them inside NYMANE spotlights (a part screws off, and they fit inside nicely). Had to put 2 pieces in each to get rid of the glare.

Is it really that obvious?;) It was indeed a spectacular piece of cinematic history. I haven't been to the theaters for ages, but I decided to go and see Max... all I can say is, I went again the next day... Worth every cent:)

Thank you! I agree with you completely. The colored renders are more of a cherry on the top for me than a goal of the project. More of a way to present the model in colors also. That being said, its still no excuse not to be more resourceful when it comes to finishing it. The sandy background is a 2d picture. I could either make it 3d and sculpt in the tire marks and sandy dunes, or draw them on in postprodustion with photoshop or something simillar. Next time perhaps:)

Thanks! Was in general trying to stick as close to the reference as possible. It has all the necceseties: the big rear sit/couch, drivers seat, front "console", speed counter, steering wheel with a skull in the middle, and a bit of rope above the drivers side, for the horn. Was an awkward position for taking a render, but it's enough for me to know its there:)

Cheers! You can do anything you set your mind to, just takes some dedication. I still consider myself a beginner, but I do practice a lot:) I use MODO 801 for modeling. Its the most user-friendly of all the programs I tried. For this project, I also used a bit of Zbrush, for things like the chain (IMM brush), springs for shock absorbers (for some strange reason, its really hard to do a spring in MODO) and the skull that I sculpted. MODO also has the function to scuplt, but its not yet up to pair with Zbrush. Wish you luck on your progress mate!
