I really don't know how to brush the backwidening, does anyone have tips or tutorial?

And if anyone has more similar images / references so I appreciate it very much!

Atm is looking promising, cant comment much, I need to see more!

Keep working mate

Thanks, but my problem is that I don't have any bg or a reference pic! So it's pretty hard

You dont have a bg or reference pic, but you are pasting large reflections of a nighttime road on it? They still need a bit of work though, they need the same amount of distortion as on the original.

i hope it helps mate







As you see in these pictures, make your reflections less visible, at this moment it's a chrome paint.

just change the opacity of the reflections to look more realistic and erase some parts of them ,good luck with project

I noticed that you're using a method I myself once tried, it is really hard to get good looking, and if you paste reflections from a background like that, then you should use the background you took the reflections from.

@ Vicent M : The reason for those paintjobs being so "flat" with minimum reflections is because of the photography techniqes used, so it doesn't work that way with all natural light, that result is achieved by either lightpainting the car, or using a flash, but on a black car with only the available light, like the streetlights that seem to reflect, the car will be that shiny, so it's all about what kind of result he wants to achieve

Also, black shiny paint basicly is dark chrome, even with lightpainting and flashes it would look more shiny than the ones you gave as an example ( if he's not aiming for metallic black or a surrealistic result)

Thanks for the tips!

This is just a test to see if the background fit


What do I do with the widening rear?
