No problem. I guess I will just render a front and back shot and post it in the finished section then.

I hope you meant 45 degree angle front and back, because straight front/back kinda sucks.

The angle you had so far was great. :)

just dont put it smack in the middle of the image. theres too much dead space around it, compositionally. give one side some precedence or tighten up the shot.

I just saw some car pictures and they gave me some ideas for different camera angles, so I'm going to try some more things first.

I didn't really get anything I liked. This is about the best I got...

Maybe if I spent more time with it I could get it somewhere, but I think I'll just use what I had before, but tighten up the compositition.

What do you mean by 'give one side some precedence'?

I tried using linear tonemapping, but I'm not sure if I like it more than the tonemapping I was using before. What do you guys think?

Last image looks great, it is a bit dark though.

Thanks guys!

Any idea how to make it brighter? I tried adding more emitters but it didn't seem to do much. I can try that again though.

zsouthboy
I'll try that, I just have to figure out how to do neon :D

tonemapping. if using Reinhard, increase the post-scale value. if using Camera, jack up the ISO. if using Linear, set the scale higher.

I'm using linear so I guess I'll try messing with scale some more.

yep, linear is totally set by hand, no automatisms within ! The default setting is, for say, always off. I like linear tonemapping !
