Endless Engines Challenge by

Here's my breakdown and submission for Endless Engines Challenge by ‪@pwnisher‬
I missed the start, but decided to participate anyway. I didn't want to create something too crazy. My goal was to create some nice movie-like animation that feels natural.🙄
Car modelled, textured and rigged from scratch and I'm planning to use it in my upcoming animations. Some props are form Sketchfab.
It was a lot of fun! Too bad the animation is only 5 seconds long.🙃
Let me know what you think. And good luck! 🤝

Incredible, I love artists that go for photorealism and not realism. They always just go above anynone else automatically.

[@maxpanysh]

Trying my best, thanks for such words man!

[@joshuatheconqueror]

Definitely seeing this in top 100

[@maxpanysh]

I hope so, thanks!

[@jbx6862]

Amazing stuff ! I really like the post processing correction you've done. maybe you can make a tutorial about it ? anyways great render, best of luck !

[@maxpanysh]

Thanks! 🙌There is no one recipe for color correction. It's different every time and depends on light setup. I recommend to watch some davinci resolve tutorials. It's a really powerful program🔥

[@sivasankarpnair]

this is def top 100 , that little nudge of the front end going down during that downshift ( chefs kiss ) is such a nice detail. The clip screams professional work from the first frame itself.

I've seen tons of these so far, and this is my favorite by a large margin. All the details, and all the attention to effectively communicate the story. Fantastic work. Plus I can just hear that unrestricted engine screaming.

[@maxpanysh]

Thank you! Glad to hear such words 🤝

[@MayaGuytutorials]

One of the best ive seen. Your post game is on point. The low fi grade is really nice. Little splash of chromatic ab here and there..nice. Adding your own crit is a really important aspect. Stepping back and pushing it, detail is everything. Nice.

The post processing is super interesting! How did you do the chromatic abberation in the bokeh with the police cars! (The turquoise and pink)

[@maxpanysh]

Chromatic aberration made right in blender using compositor (distortion node). And I think colors became turquoise and pink after color corrections I did (I didn't pay ant attention to them 🙃 I just look at the whole picture when doing post-processing)

[@Greenspag]

@@maxpanysh Wow! Very cool! I'm going to try it! I already turned in my render, but i'm going to try it for other renders! Thanks a lot! And I do the same thing as you when post processing, I see it as color grading!

Brother it could easily fool anyone into believing its a real life footage 👀

[@maxpanysh]

Thanks. Doing my best to achieve that look🙌

[@MAIRENASEV]

Congratulations. I wish you good luck. One little but: the imperfections on front of the car looks too much CG. Anyway, I love it.

[@maxpanysh]

Thanks for your thoughts!

[@yessum]

I love the vehicle and the subtle suspension movements, and the cops gaining adds some tension before the car takes off. Solid, solid work. Any hits yet on the remote job?

[@maxpanysh]

Thanks! Not yet 🙃

How did you add the smoke ? Simulation?

yup, smoke simulation right inside blender

looks insane, very good job man, by far the best looking. the only thing stoping me from believing is real is the car animation, looks very ass if im honest but other than that i love it

Another great work brother. Im also struggling on creating those kinda smoke you added while drifting. Pls can you tell me how did you achieved that ?

just search for blender tire smoke tutorial, it's pretty standard, 2 emitters inside back wheels and I also decreased density in smoke material so it looks more transparent

[@parallax_cgi]

@@maxpanysh Thanks a lot !
