I live streamed some material creation for an hour last night, didn't really have anything planned out so much of it is is trial and error experimentation. I'm moving into a new studio space in the next couple of weeks and hopefully by then I'll sort out some audio and possibly a webcam too.

Seat texturing. Tried to weather the brown leather slightly, but I'm still toying with it.

Some further weld details on the frame. I also removed the cover bracing on the seat frame which I will replace with some that is more akin to Classified Moto's style

Green on green looks good! And thanks for sharing a nice tutorial.

Thanks Andres

Another lunchbreak experiment using a C10 pickup I had textured but not finished. Started out using Toby Lee's studio lighting technique but was getting silly 3hr predicted rendertimes for a 1080p image so I used plane lights with the gradient in a map slot instead which unfortunately aren't as subtle.

Sales & Marketing suite proposal for one of our clients, Countryside Propoerties.

Most of our porposals are viewed on 1080p screens in compressed pdf files so there normally isnt any point in rendering out anything higher res or, better quality than 2-3% noise threshold as the tunaround time on these proposals is also quite short.

Frame paint as well as some experimentation with the Welder script from JokerMartini

These were for the Automotive CGI facebook group competition a couple of months ago. I wanted to revisit the post work once it was over but have only just got round to it.
The scene is fully CGI with a liberal use of the corona distance map to control both the scattering of the grass/leaves but also the displacement on the ground plane.
These whole scene was a mixture of experimentations from the lacquered aluminium bodywork panels to the distance maps and using the old ivy generator to grow ivy up a tree instead of the usual wall.

A short project experimenting with Photoshop's Path blur tool to simulate motion. Not quite as quick, accurate or user friendly as Virtual Rig Studio but its essentially free it's worth playing around with.

Google tells me it is a jeans brand serial number, so it's your favorite pair of jeans.
I live in the Netherlands so please send the beer by postal service ;-)

Not even close I'm afraid. My favourite pair of jeans is whichever is cheapest that fits my comically proportioned body.
I envy you in the Netherlands, with your ability to buy Orangeboom lager, which no longer seems to be widely available in the UK anymore.

Quick lunchtime render project of a McLaren Senna.
Definitely not my favorite in the McLaren range but that rear wing gave me the opportunity to play around with a composition I'd been thinking of since Greg Zaal released this HDRI.
HDRI lighting (set to dome mode) with a single strobe light & environment volumetrics to give the hanger opening a bit more pop.

Looks amazing, but there are fingerprints where there wouldn't normally be any - why would they be on the speedo glass when you would never need to touch them? A smear map where they have been poorly cleaned or a dust map where they haven't been cleaned at all would work better in my opinion. There is also a handprint above the Covette logo that is the wrong scale and at an impossible angle.

Speedo.
A beer* to the first who can guess what the numbers on the odometer mean.

*beer must be redeemed in a West London pub, preferably my local.
