My first 3D Studio Max render

[FUS1ON]

This guy at this forum wanted his skin rendered so I figured I would use it to practice with.
What the skin looks like when it's been painted and before rendering:

My first attempt, the nose section didn't come out right. Oh well back to the drawing board to figure it out :D

This was done by someone else and what it is supposed to look like. His track scene is a little different than mine. Mine has dirt being thrown up and a fence and trees in the background.

:eek: sweet
That game is old but the graphic is awesome

Mass they had a scene already done, actually there are several of them so I wasn't sure which skins or templates work with each scene. I'm still trying to figure this stuff out.

Xeno this is for a different game. That truck racing game was called Leadfoot, the picture of the Modified I did and posted the other day is for a game called Dirt Track Racing 2, this skin is for a addon dirt racing mod for a game called NASCAR Heat.

Are you using the renderer that came with 3DMax? I haven't really used 3DMax, so I'm not that familiar with it, but I think there are several renderers available that you can use.

One thing that is missing in your render is surface reflections. I do like the dirt effect, and the fence was a nice touch. Maybe put some tire tracks in the dirt? It sorta looks like the car was set down on a newly groomed track in both renders.

All-in-all, it's pretty damn nice for a first attempt. I'm impressed. :thumbs:

That scene uses the Brazil renderer

Surface reflections is another thing I noticed thatmine left out vs his and that is another thing I need to investigate how to turn on. Good eye.
