Gallery / Ferrari 812 Superfast – Full CGI

« on: 2025-01-10, 12:24:36 »

Hi guys,

I wanted to share this project with you.
A series of images I created by the end of 2024 to have some fun after not beeing able to do a personal project for quite some time.
It was a blast to work with this yellow wall scene as there are so many cool possibilities to do cool shots.
Done with Cinema 4D and Corona Renderer.

Also feel free to check it out on Behance:

Hope you like it!

Hi! All the links to the photos in the thread are broken now, looks like something changed with wherever they were hosted - in case you want to correct for that to bring them back :)

Thanks, Tom!
Just fixed it.

How did you maintain the person looking like the same person wearing the same thing each time? Did it start from an in-scene 3D model and then was enhanced in AI? Or some sort of ipadapter or other control net cleverness? All looks fantastic!

Thanks!

The promt I have used described the clothing features already so I just had to make shure the leather jacket looks consistent throughout the shots which caused me to manually retouch the features with photoshop. Its far from perfect and also the face and hair is different and could have been done better but in terms of realism I am totally satisfied with this.

Probably this is something that could have been solved with input image/image prompt in Fooocus.

Hi guys,

as AI imagery is getting better and better these days I wanted to make a quick test project on how I can implement the power of AI in my workflow with CGI cars.
This is the result – AI generated backplates and talent together with conventional rendered cars.
Basically its a normal HDRi + backplates workflow but with more freedome and without the need to search for backplates :D

I have used Stable Diffusion XL for the backplates and talent and the car (together with the floor in some images) is rendered with Cinema 4D and Corona Renderer. Post processing as always in Photoshop.
The closeup shots are full CGI.

It was a fun exercise and I am excited to see how good the quality of this workflow will be in the future.

I hope you like it!

Gallery / Audi RS3 2021

« on: 2023-12-06, 07:54:50 »

Hi guys,

I wanted to share this quick render series of the Audi RS3 I did for Instagram recently. I did a lot of additional modelling for the wheels like tire, brake discs and caliper and also tweaked certain areas of the model which I wanted to test in this set of images.
The setup is very simple. Just the red wall and a gradient area light. It was a lot of fun finding interesting angles in this setup and use the direkt light and the reflection of the red wall to create cool visuals.

Done with Cinema 4D and Corona Renderer.

Also feel free to check out the full project with 10 more shots on Behance:

wow :- ) beautiful details. Is the Caustic rendered in Corona? (as separate pass?)

The caustics are rendered in Corona from the HDRi sun spot.
To speed things up I rendered the caustics in a 2nd render run at half resolution and with a white environment. Then I upscaled the caustics pass using AI to the full resolution again.
This worked great!

Gallery / Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo

Hi guys,

Here is a rather quick personal project I wanted to share with you.
I have prepared this Taycan model earlier this year and finally found some time to do a image series with it. I have tried a lot of paint colors as I was quite inspired by the possibilities of the simple environment. These kinds of projects are a fantastic way to get creative with different paint color options without having to decide for just one (which is sometimes quite hard for me XD).

Done with Cinema 4D and Corona Renderer.

Hi guys,

Here is a project I wanted to share with you.
This was originally planed as just one single shot and expanded over the year to a huge series.
The location got HDRi images for several daytimes allowing me to play with some lighting variations which was a lot of fun.
Really happy with the resulst and that I can finally call this series done!

Images are attached to the post.

The full project with its 27 shots can be viewed on Behance:

Hi guys,

Here is a quick project I wanted to share with you.
Just recently I have spent some hours working on my 718 GT4 model and remodelled the mounting of the wing and the wing itself.
Wanted to render some shots the car afterwards and made a few wing details shots.

Gallery / Porsche 911 Turbo S – Full CGI daylight studio

« on: 2022-04-07, 13:45:50 »

Hi guys,

Here is a quick project I wanted to share with you.
I recreated the daylight studio from Calvert Studios Spain the other day and wanted to test it with my old 911 Turbo S model I have converted to Corona Renderer recently.
It was really fun to play with the angles and colors of the car :)

Done with Cinema 4D and Corona Renderer.
