Next was to put materials onto Mr. Lambo and setup other 3D cars to represent the reflections of the cars in the photo. Unfortunately I dont have 3d models of the cars in this photo, so I grabbed some from DMI Car Models that were as close in shape and type as possible. Then I loaded them in, and positioned them to best represent the cars in the photo, and changed there materials to match. THINGS STILL TO DO : I still need to setup a shadow capture object to represent the red car in the space behind Mr. Lambo, and also to add a pole object for Mr Lambo to reflect. Also, the tarmac on the ground is wet, and is reflecting the cars somewhat. I thought I would add a 100% transperant plane, with reflection and bump mapping to best re-create the reflecting effect in the photo! after I've got all these setups done, I will need to do the following as far as I can see : Render Mr. Lambo By himself (all other object hidden) Render Mr. Lambo with all reflect objects Render Mr. Lambo with 100% ambient white material to create a mask. Create a mask of the ASTRA car in the photo combine appropriate parts of renders together into final image! what do you think?
