very nice modeling. only crit is on those big highlights. to me they look a bit too bright and the edges are a bit jagged.

it´s been a whille... i decided to improve the quality of the render for my bmw m5 series, i think its more "photorealistic" but im still not happy with the result, the enviroment is temporary so dont mind it. the hdri i used is pretty common, ill try some with higher resolutions when i have the chance. I havent redone any modelling
this image was rendered in Maya with MR and HDRI, at 1600x1200 in 10 minutes on a Dual Opteron 2.6 with 2gb Ram
Hope you like the image

PPL i need your help, i want to finish this, to move on for that i need those nasty critics of your´s!!!
