MOVED: Mercedes Shooting Break Matte Black

I'm hoping i can still swing your pro votes since my last 2 chops brought pro votes haha and i think i pulled off the brushing. Whole body was brushed WITHOUT A REFERENCE. Only hints towards shades were existing shades on the car but paint was scratch from my head no ref images

Meant to be kinda quick so there isn't much change besides the matte black paint. New lip kit, carbon window accessories, new wheels, and a half backdrop change lol

Topspeed expressed interest in this chop but turns out they're more likely to do something with my old SLS Black Series haha woo!

Hope you enjoy!

not imo to be honest, it is just so toony and has few shades only, so it looks like wip to me
sorry

wheels are way toony tbh, rest is ok, i love the splitter design

haha funny one , the wheels are stock mate

Its not bad overall i think it looks matt, but if you had this in a studio setting it would be alot better.

glac
hmm... Pro?

Sorry, but this is barely inter.

Firstly the brushing: Nordic man basically said it.... it lacks variation and shades. Just look at some images of real matte black cars out there:

It definitely has a bit more variation in the tones on the body work. Also you can see that the car is reflecting colour, while your chop it seems to be completely desaturated. Furthermore your chop looks more like a matte grey to me than a matte black. I'd suggest darkening the chop slightly and increasing the contrast. Or perhaps what some people do - turn up the gamma. I just tried that out (by darkening the image and increasing gamma and contrast) and it honestly looks 100 times better. Try it out... you'll definitely get that matte black look rather than the toony grey look you have at the moment.

The rims: they aren't the greatest quality and the front tyre looks about as thick as a rubber band. I'd suggest widening it a bit... it just looks a bit silly at the moment.

Otherwise, it's not bad, though I'd definitely give us an update. Then maybe we can see a chop that is pro or at least near it.

I understand I'm being a bit harsh, but it sometimes annoys me when people try to claim they deserve a promotion when the quality of work just isn't there. Anyway, I hope you take my comments constructively ;)

Thanks klaus. I thought it was better than it is i guess. ;)

I guess i'll go back to the drawing board with it and look at studio too

Can someone move this to wips please :)

Hello Kid :-d

i don't understand why you want to complicate the life :D :D
the base is in gray matte, contrast there just and you will have your base for matte black !!! :omg:

after, you can brush what you want...
i give you a HR... it's more easy like this, no ?? :-d
with some adjustments, it will be ok !

for the rest, contrast a little bit your tyres :P

what xanforce said xD ^

he's right buddy, don't over complicate things, even when you just want to brush them anyway. Nice work, but it does indeed look like a wip. Keep going ^^
