Well, this is my first completed render in 5 years. I have to admit I am rusted. I did this for a competition in Speed and Sound (South Africa) https://www.speedandsound.co.za/virtual-rides-competition/
What do you guys think?

Original:


Chopped:

It lacks definition a bit. The color takes away the reflections too much. Also the wheels lack contrast and hood is too monotone.

Nice to see you back chopping, idea is ok but execution needs bit more work.

Thanks for the critic, much appreciated. I thought it doesn't look great, just could not put my finger on what is wrong and it is completely useless to ask someone that don't do this kinda stuff. They usually just go, wow, awesome or how did you do that.

Just like nordic man said. Good ideas, but you have to focus on the details!

Well, all has been said above, but still it is a very nice looking M3! Too bad the base isn't higher res, I'd love to give it a go as well otherwise
