5 Axis 2011 Scion tC Concept Car!

wow those images look amazing! great job

Awesome as always Sean! Its the small details that makes this all believable! After reading your blog, I just love #4.

How did you get the neon lights to "reflect" off of the car's rear window and show through the passenger window?

Sick shots Sean! Nice to see someone switch it up from the normal car shoots we see.

I love this set. Good job.

Thanks again everyone

In simplest terms I masked through the cars windows to reveal the background and then put a soft light layer filled with black at a low opacity to make the BG darker for the portions that are seen through the glass. For the reflection I copied the BG, inverted it and warped it to match a realistic amount of distortion. I then messed around with blending modes to create something that looked natural.

Great shots. Car looks like it was CG'd and pasted in there.
