|
 |
Well, virtually at least.
For some that don't know about it, there is a Porsche 911, called HLS, that a month ago, not even Google had any entries about it - well it still doesn't, except for the latest news about the car being in a poor state.
It was a '64 911 sports car, sent to Automotive Engineering department at the University of Aach as a "retractable roof racing coupe" study.
For some, it might not be the best looking car, but it had interesting features like a folding roof, which included the doors and the rear hatch was removable. As you can see from the render, the windows weren't sliding up/down. they instead overlapped from left to right.
I couldn't leave it in that poor state, so I used it as my personal virtual restoration project - I always enjoyed these, but haven't found the necessary time to finish them.

Hey, this looks quite nice, but the roof could be a bit more glossy and the shadow is very hard and dark. And you also added lines around the porsche side

I am having a tough time working out what that was done in, the wheels are throwing me as they look out of place style/art wise to the rest of the car almost like the tyres had too much fxaa high sharpness applied to them.
I am seeing some aliasing as well on main window? so I would guess this is an actual 3d model render.
Otherwise looks great. and agree on the shadows part with pumpy.

I never thought I'd say this, but that is one ugly ass 911! Still, it should be restored as part of the history, and you did a good job!

Sir. I used Photoshop, it's not a 3D model. Wheels are Fuchs model, originally sourced from that Porsche era.
