| | | lighting and rendering -Lamborghini render query
i have modeled a lamborghini and i am trying to render it using mental ray to look like the picture i have attached below, however i am not really sure where to start. If any one has any suggestions on how to achieve such a render that would be awesome. http://img106.imageshack.us/img106/5...elago00ax5.jpg

The car has a mi_car_paint_phen as its material, and the only lighting is a plane with a white shading map
