Great. I'm almost done. Now I only need to learn how to model and texture a car, and get a PC that can render them quick.

I've been wanting to try lighting a car in my own path tracer but never knew it could be done so easily. Thank you so much for these tutorials.

Me: Heh, heh, no-one will ever know my secret 360 lighting formula.

I want to see your car library. By the way your 3 min is more valuable than my whole year of study.

Never knew how to properly light cars in blender, thanks for this video Damian, I'm pretty sure I will use it in my current tutorial series...

Was struggling with creating soft lights in Blender. Thank you for this quick tutorial. Had tried creating soft highlights only with gradient texture before and struggled. I saw you using the same technique. If it is possible could you please elaborate on these technique as Blender otherwise produces a very sharp Highlights or I am unware how to get soft highlights. Also, I have tried using a Translucent plane as a diffuser in front of light, but it produces a lot of noise. Could you please share your tips on these two topics as it will help me light better in blender.

[saparjumash]

cool thank you. and i also figured out that if you set clearcoat of the car paint to 3 or 5 you can get that realistic result. i tried many variants and couldnt make it till i coinsidently changed the clearcoat of the car paint

[ahmedabdalla]

Wow damian !! This is cooler than some pro hdri lighting and more straight forward to showcase the product.👍🏼 also can you please show us the material that you used in the ground plan ? Its awesome thanks❤️

watching From Kenya Africa, Nice and educative

Very nicely explained, less is more indeed. I've been trying to create this exact lighting for a product render, spent almost a whole day trying to get the perfect light. I had several issues where one side of the product would be dark, due to lack of 360° lighting. However my current project is car related, so I thank you for uploading this tutorial :)

[daviddahl]

You only use one camera for the 360 and animate the circle and car together and insert at least 4 key frames to make the car and circle turn. I'm only guessing on that part. I can't find any good videos for cars on that

[nezza_uwu]

title and vid: under 3min
me: take 30min to replicate

Thanks for the tuto haha

[JeanYanb]

Very helpful for my cars! Thanks Damian!

[briost]

Awesome tutorial! I have a question when talking with clients if they do not have cad data for the product they want visualized, how do you explain so they understand why 1 product is more complicated then the other to modell and therefore will be more expensive. For example a pill bottle vs flashlight.

[matuziyt]

How did you make that floor? It looks so good!
