awesome camaros jeff! \/ paint job is simply amazing! ... i especially love the metal finish for the tyre rims :O can you please tell me what material did you use for the tyre rims .. i never get them right .. :(
Thanks for the comments! I'm glad that arch collection is useful/helpful. Hopefully we'll all have some mental ray material deposit sites open in the not too distant future to make exchanging materials a bit easier.
nwiz25 - Thank you. The rim material is a glossy A&D material. I used the interpolation options to really blur the reflections. I have a few things baking right now that are taking a while to render but I'll try to get a blog update out today or tomorrow with some various metal materials including the rim material I used for the Camaro(s).
Jason: So you only like to parti...but yet you love lamp? You freak!
Chowda - Most of my concrete is an A&D material with a concrete bitmap for the diffuse, specular, and bump. However I also have some procedural concretes, and at times I'll even mix the two (procedural & bitmaps).
Jason: It's for a few projects actually. Some training material...and I may also use it in my masters class at SIGGRAPH this year (not 100% sure about that yet). Also, I wanted to use it to create an animation or two for a certain plugin review...
Neil: Thank you sir!
Glacierise & Moryabi: Sorry for the late replies. Thank you for the comments.
Thanks for everything you've shared Jeff - the materials, tutorials, and information in general (here and elsewhere in the forums) has been incredibly helpful.
